Recipe For Lucius-like Shininess, 'cause we all want to be shiny!
Mood: artistic

Hi everyone!

I'm Lone Wolf - Lone - and obviously I'm new here, and was bullied by bookofjude to post here after showing him something on AIM. This particular something was made up after long hours of boredom staring at a bottle of decoupage finish on my desk when I was meant to be studying ^^;;...

Anyway, without much further ado...


Recipe for Lucius-like shininess:

Ingredients:

1 Large bottle of Plaid® Royal Coat® Decoupage Finish
10 small containers of blue Red Earth® dry skin glitter (note that any liquid body glitter will not work as it will remove viscosity from the decoupage finish. Normal glitter will cause skin irritation)
1 Large bowl
1 Industrial-sized, soft bristle brush or sponge roller.
(Optional) 1 partner to assist with application.
1 Tanning solarium/sunshine

Method:

1) Empty bottle (approx 500mL) of Decoupage Finish into large bowl. Make sure that a skin does not form on the top.
2) Empty skin glitter into Decoupage Finish (10 containers should be enough but if not, use more) one container at a time, stirring after each one.
3) Stir quickly when all containers are empty; this ensures no lumps and a light consistency.

This is where you need to work quickly.

4) Strip naked (or, if you wish to keep some dignity, leave underwear on).
5) Apply/Have partner apply Decoupage mix to one side of body in a fine film.
6) Use solarium/sunshine to dry the Decoupage mix.
7) Repeat step five on other side of body.
8) Use solarium/sunshine to dry the wet Decoupage mix.

Voila! Shiny. You may do the same to your partner if you wish. Decoupage Finish can be replaced with PVA glue as both substances, when dry, retain a certain elasticity that will enable you to move quite comfortably.

WARNINGS:
Do not attempt to use toxic glues eg. araldyte.
It is recommended you leave some parts of your skin uncoated.
Refrain from painting lips, nostrils, the interior of your ears and any other orofices.
Avoid painting genitalia.

Removal:
Bathe in warm water and soap and rinse in a hot shower.

Mood:
If you wish to have a mood to match your new-found shininess, consume one of the following in substantial amounts:

Caffeine/Guarana
Sugar
Alcohol

And to a certain extent, Ecstasy wouldn't really hurt, either.



There you have it. Better than all-body glitter because it won't rub off and leave glitter everywhere. Remember, it's not condoned by the WHO and I'm not liable for any weird skin growths/mutant powers you gain.
