Thing #159: Green Halloween Makeup

Thing #159: Green Halloween Makeup

Many (it seems like) years ago, I went to a Halloween party dressed as The Incredible Hulk, by which I mean I wore shorts and sandals and then covered the rest of my body with green makeup (and glow-in-the-dark lipstick, which is also shown). Apparently I didn't know how much to buy, so I ended up with three extra tubes of the stuff.

It ended up extra cold (about 30°F) that night, so walking the half mile or so to and from the party location was a chilly experience. Then, I couldn't sit down or really even touch anything, so generally I just stood around awkwardly (which is basically what I do at parties anyway).

The main thing I remember from the evening is that some lady-devil kept telling me how much she liked my costume. Needless to say, I was thrilled to finally get home and rinse everything off in a nice, hot shower.

I've been storing these since then, but I finally just threw them away. I'm unlikely to repeat that whole experience anytime soon, and I couldn't think of anything else to do with three tubes of cheap Halloween goop.
