How to get the wet look?

[gorn7]

For my costume this year I've decided I wanted to go for the "Wallow" look from Ghostrider. If you look at the clip below, he was one of the Hidden(the one with long wet hair). Does anyone have any suggestions on how to make my hair(a wig, actually) and face look wet without actually being wet? Any other suggestions to make the costume creepier would be great.

Thanks,

K-Y jelly. Yes, as simple as that.

What about good old Dapper Dan.

Definitely, hair gel will work on hair, but....not very well on your face.

I have another trick for you Jeff, but I don't think you will like it. LOL

You nasty..LOL

Try some Vaselene which is very shiny, looks wet and is very affordable in big tubs.

so wormy, why do you need to look like that ghost from the first clip tonight?? that IS what you had in mind for it isn't it??? ;)

[DeathTouch]

I am on my last spot of hair gel, but I would give it up for wormy. That didn't sound good. LOL

*Meltdown's on a plane to Missouri..with K-Y*.. Bow Chicka Bow wow... Will stop by and pick up Death Touch for the garage sale...ON THE WAY BACK!!

I fly solo goose...

Wormy...ill see you shortly...

[DeathTouch]

Wait...Let me do my hair first. Yuk! Now I look really moist. LOL

I read in one of my makeup books to use coconut oil for your face to make it look wet. I've never done it but it might just work for what you want to do.

[Frighteners Entertainment]

If you plan to use am appliance on your face, you'll have to stick with the k-y.
You would put this on after setting the appliance with powder.

[wormyt]

there you go with that KY again. man you must have some experiance with that stuff. care to share LOL

I found this in a theater make-up book back in 2000 when I first got into make-up and prosthetics.
