#make-up

This and also the one good thing about being allergic to a number of substances that are in almost every single skin product under the sun is that I frequently looked at make-up and went "yeah, that looks nice, but you know what's even nicer? Not having my whole face get big and scaly like a puffer fish from an allergic reaction. No, thanks."

Also, I grew up to poor to even consider spending hard-earned cash on overpriced paint.

forever grateful i was simply too lazy to let the makeup industrial complex get its hooks in me. I was just like im not doing all of that. in fact. im doing none of that

The brilliant tradition of how Clowns 'trademark' their make-up, they paint it on an egg which is then put in storage.

The origin of the clown egg tradition can be traced back to 1946, when Stan Bult (2nd picture), a member of what was then known as the International Circus Clowns Club (now Clowns International), embarked on an unconventional hobby. Bult, with an eye for detail and a passion for clowning, began painting the distinctive make-up designs of his fellow clowns onto emptied-out chicken eggs. Initially, this endeavour was purely recreational, a pastime that allowed Bult to celebrate the unique visages of his peers.

Bult's hobby, however, soon evolved into something much more significant. As he meticulously recreated the make-up designs on these fragile canvases, it became apparent that these painted eggs served as an invaluable record. Each egg encapsulated the individuality and creativity of a specific clown, preserving their unique make-up for posterity. This was not merely a collection of artistic representations; it was a memorial to the clowns of yore, ensuring that their iconic faces would not be lost to time.
