When the glue dried, it dried quite clear and not white which meant that it looked more like skin than glue. It stuck really well to the skin and when I used the tweezers to make a slit down the middle of the line that I had created, it was also really easy because the glue is flexible. I found different things that were in a red shade, different lipsticks and blusher and tried them to see which worked best or which would look most realistic and I think that using them all made it look most realistic but in my opinion, I don't think that the cut looks completely realistic when up close, more from a distance. I think that if the cut was smaller and maybe somewhere on the face, it would look more realistic. During experimenting with the cut, I tried to use fake skin but it made my skin rash, so when using certain products, I must make sure that they don't cause a reaction to the person that they're on.
I also found different shades of eye shadow which I tried to shade differently to create a bruise but the colours didn't very well and also I started off blending them on my hand, and a hand isn't really a place that a bruise would be effective, so I used my brothers face to see if I could make a realistic bruise but I feel that the colours aren't strong enough. The colours mixed and looked more brown than a greeny/purple that bruises usually are. When I have to resources, I will attempt to use other techniques to create bruises and cuts.
When researching, I also came across two links which I would really like to try and adapt if I can get hold of the correct resources and both shouldn't cost too much.
