This guide will reveal how to pretend to have a facial piercing, recreating the effect through ornaments that do not require drilling. It can be useful for all teenagers who dream of having a piercing but have failed to convince their parents, or for anyone else who would like to have it but have a poor tolerance for pain. Navel piercings and tongue piercings will not be treated, because there is no way to glue a jewel inside the mouth without running the risk of it being swallowed.
Steps
Step 1. Use some false eyelash glue to attach the jewel to your skin
It is a non-irritating and effective product, and designed specifically to stay in contact with the skin.
Step 2. Look for jewelry with a silver or gold base to fake a labret piercing
Use three-dimensional stickers, or glitter that has a sticky side. Cut out the three-dimensional sticker and place the glitter on it. Firmly fix the base of the three-dimensional adhesive (silver or gold) with the adhesive glitter. Make sure that the adhesive base remains free: that will be the surface that will adhere to your skin.
Step 3. Get a piece of adhesive jewelry that can simulate a labret piercing
Choose a bright stone and stick it in the place where you would like to pretend you have your labret.
Step 4. Create your own custom jewelry
You can paint a 3D sticker to your liking, in a flashy color, if you prefer a striped pattern, for example that resembles the colors of a beach ball. You can use nail polish or glue you use for other materials, paint, or dyes for home improvement. Once you have created your creation, fix the color with a coat of transparent nail polish, especially indicated if you have chosen a matte varnish.
Step 5. There are so many other ways to make a fake labret
For example, you can cut a three-dimensional sticker in the shape of a headband and glue rhinestones to the center for nail art. You can use craft glue.
Step 6. Choose some more original shapes
For example, heart stickers or adhesive glitter in different shapes.
Step 7. Glue the glitter under the lower lip, preferably in the center
Glue it slightly below where a real piercing should be, so the glitter doesn't come off easily with your lip movements while you talk or eat. By doing this there is less chance of it coming off.
Step 8. Glue a flint that pretends to be a sensual mole over the upper lip (either left or right, as you like)
You can use a small shining stone for nail art. This type of piercing is called Monroe, and is usually preferred by the female sex.
Step 9. Use a nail polish and stick it on the nostril to fake a nose piercing
Glue it to the skin of one of the nostrils to pretend a nostril. Use a silver three-dimensional sticker if you want to get a metallic effect, and cut a very small circle.
Step 10. Make some eyebrow ornaments
Use 3D stickers, nail art glitter or bright stickers (but cut into very small circles) to make these jewels. Glue the stickers above or below the eyebrow to mimic an eyebrow piercing.
Step 11. Use rings that tighten around the cartilage to pretend you have multiple ear piercings
Or stick some glitter or 3D stickers. Use craft wire to shape small circles (or a U-shaped ornament if you like). Spread a coat of clear nail polish over the metal, so that it does not cause ear irritation. Attach your metal bands to the cartilage.
Step 12. For a lip piercing you can think of a previously cleaned hoop earring with clip
Remove the clip and fix it on the lip. You can use the same idea in the center of your nostrils to pretend you have a septum.
Advice
- Facial ornaments can be intriguing and exotic, but don't go overboard by wearing all the fake piercings at the same time.
- Spread a veil of powder on the face before applying the adhesive: in this way the skin will be less slippery and the glitter will last longer.
- Choose to decorate the part of your face that you like best, be it the nose, lips or eyebrows.
- Keep your hair tied up when you wear an eyebrow jewel, you will avoid the hair from covering the flint.
- Find more inspiration by consulting sites dedicated to body jewelry. Look in the jewelry stores, some have a section dedicated to these products, and seeing them in person you can better evaluate what is right for you.
Warnings
- Pay attention to the glue you apply to your face. False eyelash glue is best suited.
- Do not wear a fake piercing in the summer: if you sunbathe it could leave you with an unsightly, lighter speck.
- People may notice that you are pretending.
