The Right Way to Apply Body Paint For Halloween

Before you go layering on the body paint, you want to properly prep the skin. "You want as little product on the skin as possible," Stewart says. "If there's a lot of moisture on the skin, the paint can sometimes break up on you. So I really like it to be completely clean." The best way to ensure the skin is clean is to wipe it down with a little bit of alcohol or a baby wipe — or apply the paint right out of the shower.
