Tips when working with Water Make-up:

Regularly change the water you rinse your brushes in and work preferably with two water dishes: one for light and one for dark shades.

When working with Water Make-up preferably use separate brushes for light and dark colours.

To make beautiful, thin lines easier, mix the Water Make-up with Cleansing Lotion instead of water.

Water Make-up can be used to add (additional) colour to the hair and eyebrows, provided that the hair is not permed, bleached or dyed. Use a toothbrush to do this.

The shape, width and quality of the brush are to a great extent qualifying the effect you can achieve with it. For instance, round brushes are ideal for making curves and drawing curls. You draw straight lines preferably with a flat brush, keeping the handle of the brush pointed in the direction of the line. To draw a thin line, you do not necessarily need to use a narrow brush. You can also use the edge of a flat brush for that. This brush is also very convenient for making a thick line merge into a thin one, turning the brush on its side in one fluid action as you go automatically changes the line from thick to thinner.

Create the golden surfaces on the forehead, the sides of the face and the ears with Water Make-up Metallic Pure 707 and brush IMP8. Apply a double layer if necessary to ensure that the surfaces are properly covered.

Colour the rest of the helmet with Water Make-up Metallic Pure 701 and brush IMP8. Turn the brush in a smooth motion on its side to create a pointed shape, so that the shape goes from wide to narrow (pointed).
