to make a leg or arm sprain believable. If you’ve decided that your fake injury will be a sprain or strain to your ankle, knee, wrist, or shoulder, especially one caused by an impact, adding a fake bruise will make the injury even more believable. Keep the makeup subtle and believable, and avoid adding a fake, bloody gash, which will look over-the-top. Look for red, purple, green, and yellow eyeshadow, blush, and eyeshadow or blush brushes. Stage makeup will create the most realistic bruise, but you can also use basic makeup in a pinch.  Some costume stores offer "bruise wheels," which contain all the eyeshadow colors you'll need to make a convincing bruise. Cream-based eyeshadows work better than powder-based ones, but either can be used. Use a brush to apply the eyeshadow. Add purple eyeshadow around the edges of your "bruise," and blend with a blush or powder brush. Blending will help the bruise look like it's inside the skin rather than on top of it. Make some parts of the bruise redder than other for an uneven, realistic appearance. Use a brush to blend the makeup for a seamless transition between colors. If you’re using green, add splotches of yellow near the edges. Let the edges stay uneven, since a neat or symmetrical bruise will look less believable. You want your bruise to last all day long so you don’t have to worry about it wearing off or reapplying. To ensure it stays put, brush a tiny bit of powder on the bruise. Then, use a setting spray to cement it all in place. Avoid touching the bruise throughout the day. Not only will this look more realistic--you wouldn’t want to touch a painful bruise--but it will also help keep your makeup in place. This is approximately how long bruises take to heal. As the weeks progress, make the reddish-purple section smaller and let the greenish-yellow area slowly consume the bruise. Once the reddish-purple section is gone altogether, shrink the greenish-yellow bruise until it gradually disappears. Bruises hurt, so grimace or flinch if you or someone else touches it.
