Practicing Veins On Myself

Getting the veins right was really stressing me until I did this practice and found out what product would work best for drawing them on the skin. I used the bruise dark purple from a supra palette I got last year. I found that once I drew the vein and just gently dabbed my finger over it no matter how dark it was, it would fade away without getting rubbed off completely. This was it!

I got the right product as it made them look as if they were under the skin and this is exactly the effect that I was looking for as it makes them look natural.I then went ahead and drew many veins on my face to practice their shape and structure. I would say they are more like broken veins/capillaries rather than actual full veins. After patting them with my finger to fade them away, I then went over them with translucent powder.

I did this to make them look like they are sitting under the skin supposed to just look like they are drawn on top. I used a very little fine brush and made sure that there is minimal product on it to start with and if needed I could add more as I went along. I need to now practice this technique on my model keeping in mind not to make it look like my model's mascara is running down.
