Hey guys. At the moment I am in the middle of doing my major work in art for my last year of school (in NSW, Australia this is called the HSC).

Do any of you guys know what the cosplay girls in Harajuku use for their makeup?

Sorry let me be more specific, the white makeup on their faces, what do they use to make that?

your help would be greatly appreciated, it would mean ALOT!!!

try this:

it's alternatives for people that want the makeup of a geisha... it has how to make the white face foundation there if you don't have the traditional japanese colours.

(the traditional one is called Neri-Oshiroi)

I'm not sure if that's what you want though, as I dunno what those girls you're talking about are :D
