I gave my DCs "scars" using Lipfinity Gloss and now can't get rid of them!

[tulpe]

The "scars" that is, not DCs.

DCs were playing Harry Potter yesterday and required "scars" to be applied to their faces. I dutifully obliged using Lipfinity gloss (as couldn't find red lipliner). Unfortunately, despite copious amounts of regular make up remover and soap & water, the damn stuff wont come off.

Tomorrow we are flying to France to visit FIL and DCs look like they have been in car crash .

Any recommendations for shifting it?

i always use black eyeliner for harry scars.

How about baby oil?

Hadn't thought of baby oil. Will go to Boots forthwith.

I did suggest black eyeliner but DCs insisted they should be red .

I'm sure baby oil will work, we use it all the time for removing face paints, sticky plaster marks.

Save yourself a trip to boots and try cooking oil/olive first. People talk of using this for the oil cleansing method, personally i used almond oil, made me spotty after a few goes.

fab, thank you. I am an aromatherapist so have an assortment of veg/seed/nut base oils to try in that case (altho not baby oil as its mineral based).

Thanks again :)
