It used to be that glow in the dark makeup was limited to the curious tubes of mysterious crust available in Duane Reade every Halloween. But that was before Ke$ha and Nicki Minaj each sported the glo-worm look and stamped it with their brand of freak-chic fashion. Maybe we can credit them with bringing the trend mainstream, because now, you don’t have to worry about waking up with perma-clown face the day after a holiday rave.
Make Up For Ever introduced a fluo night black light pigment this week, a transparent powder for the face, body and even hair. It’s invisible under regular light to the plain eye, so you can wear your freak face all day long without a single person knowing. Unless, that is, your office has black lights instead of fluorescent, and in that case, you probably already do crazier things than wear day-glo makeup. More power.
The powder can be added to or blended with gels, creams or powders for coloring effects. It’s available at Sephora, but for a limited time. It might not change your life, but it’s sure good enough to be a costume-changer. Mad Glow-in-the-Dark Men? Lady Glo-Glo? Brightmare on Elm Street?
Glow crazy, babes.
