Halloween Progress Report #3: Primary Cosmetics
These are the cosmetics that are vital to looking like our favorite Australian sea monster. For my skin color...

This Turquoise Paradise face/body paint from Fusion Body Art. (Although, I ordered mine through a business called Clown Antics.) I'm going to try to be delicate with how much I put on. I know Lagoona is quite pale; I don't want to end up looking like Lorna or Honey when that's just not what I'm going for. If I need to blend in a bit of white after the fact, so be it. I'll test it on the back of my hand over the weekend and see what I need to do.
My hair is too short on its own to be styled into Lagoona's signature long curls, so I just went and got a blonde wig with blue streaks. It probably won't be the best wig ever, but it doesn't need to be. It's for a Halloween costume. I'm not a professional cosplayer. I'm just having fun.
For my fishy fins and ears, as well as my webbed fingers, I will be following some video tutorials by NsomniaksDream. She explains the steps very clearly and thoroughly, and the results look pretty good (in my amateur opinion, anyway)!

I already cut out the foam structures for the ears and fins. Now it's just a matter of working with the latex and adhesive.
23 days left to get it all together--18 if I want to dress up for an upcoming Halloween party. I just have to do my best!
