For the Cosplayers on my F-list

Make-up: how do you get good at it? Just practice? Or is there some sort of great secret I should know? Because I like to think my sewing skills are pretty good, but my inability to style hair or apply make-up makes most of the photos look varying amounts of 'average' to 'fail'.

Practice, pretty much. Also, my Kevin Aucoin (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kevyn_Aucoin) books. Thumbing through one at a bookstore might help enough that you don't need to buy it. Tutorials, whether video or print, can give me ideas or tricks I didn't think of incorporating before. ^__^
