Create an easy fake bruise to freak out family and friends, for halloween or a theatrical production.
NOTE: This project cost little to nothing if your a girl. If you are a boy attempting this project you may have to borrow you mom/sister's makeup and brushes or you may purchase all of the items.

All shadows must be matte in order for the bruise(s) to look realistic.
