    OK, I'll ask it- Wouldn't it be like really embarrassing if people at this party could tell that you PAINTED freckles on your face?? And if they ask, will you admit they are fake freckles, or lie about it?
    Just curious...

    Hmmmm, not sure if I should say why I need the freckles!

    OK..........going to the party as a school girl (hahaha, did I say girl)!!!

    It will be a real blast though, sometimes it's really good to let your hair down.

    Thanks for the ideas, not so sure about acrylic paint! Flybye, I might just sue you.

    Oh, ok, so it's a costume party of "some sort".

    Yes, Flyby, I understand what you meant.

    I vote for eyebrow pencil- that comes in various reddish brown soft colors, and will stay if you don't rub it.

    I haven't ever had a spray on tan, but the stuff that they use for that would work with the toothbrush.

    This was kind of funny to read - I'm guessing "fancy dress party" is British English while American English is "costume party".

    I have trouble distinguishing between the two, so I couldn't understand what Lisa's "problem" was (no offence, Lisa ) - surely at a costume/fancy dress party people would be expecting a lot more fake than a set of freckles!

    Apart from that I second the eyebrow pencil. Oh - and knee socks. You gotta have knee socks.

    Oh, I LOVE dressing up! Why doesn't anyone ever invite me to parties like this anymore!! Last chance was Halloween at least 5 years ago. I went as a witch and went bananas on the make-up, exaggerating all existing lines and shadows, and was told I looked like a witch "that had been out in the woods for a very, very long time"... Perfect.

    Hi lph

    I think you should gather up some of your friends and arrange a really cool Bad Taste Fancy Dress Party!


    I know I will have a lot of fun at the party I go to.

    Oh Flybye, you crack me up, I don't want freckles that will last for months .........only for about 6 hours!

    BTW, I did understand what you were explaining before.

    As somebody else suggested, an eyebrow pencil will do the trick, so I have bought a new one just for the occasion.

    So, I will be having a dress rehearsal and makeup rehearsal over the weekend.

    The tackier the better............hmmmm, that means in really bad taste.

    Cheers guys for your ideas.

    Yes that is just what happened! Too funny- here i was picturing her at an elegant dinner party with fake freckles- If she had said costume party or halloween party, I wouldn't have thought twice about it.

    I was assuming that Halloween being around the corner, that was the reason for the frecklage, if you will.
    This begs the other question, how would one know if they were real or not, aside from not knowing you personally.
    It also begs the other question, WHY would anyone ASK such a personal question? Kind of like "when's your baby due?" or "why haven't you had children yet?" That person must not be a fan of Miss Manners - Lisa SH, just know that I am in no way referring to you on this - Just thinking of answers to your questions!
