Heart bruise and scar {Alex}

Hello:)

So for this post I ma going to briefly explain how I created this love heart bruise and scar. It doesn't have to be in any particular shape, I just thought that the scarring would look better if it was.


This is only going to be short since I described how to do bruises in my last post.

Before I actually did the bruise I made the scar. 
Firstly, draw out the original shape in pink or red lip pencil. You could use a face paint stick (snazaroo do these in 5 or 6 basic colours) but it wouldn't really work if you used normal face paint. I then smudged the edges out a little so there wasn't a definite line. over the top of it (so it had a shiny look) I added ssome clear nail varnish. As an after thought, I realized I could have used a really thin layer of latex- this would have looked the same but is easier and it depends on which you have. After it had dried I did the bruise. I then rubbed on the varnish to make it peel slightly so it looked more scar-like.

I hope you found this a useful and you recreate this at some point. Thanks for reading:)
