Creating a Scar with Lip Liner

This method focuses on using lip liner to create a simple yet effective scar.

  1. Apply Initial Layer: Start by applying a layer of lip liner where you want the scar to be.
  2. Blend: Blend the lip liner outwards to soften the edges.
  3. Build Layers: Add more layers of lip liner, concentrating on the center of the scar area to build up the color and create depth.
  4. Blend Again: Continue blending after each layer to ensure a smooth, realistic transition.
  5. Repeat: Keep adding layers and blending until you achieve the desired realistic red scar effect for your cosplay or costume. The goal is to create a slightly raised and discolored effect that mimics a real scar.
