Master the fangs of a bloodsucker with cotton wool

This method is simple and at the same time very unreliable. In order to make the fangs, take an ordinary cotton swab and remove from it the tips (the cotton parts themselves). On each tip it is necessary to drop a little nail polish, press it to the teeth and hold it for a short time. In this case, do not expect a lasting effect from the vampire fangs, because if you keep your mouth closed, cotton wool will soften very quickly and lose its appearance. Therefore, we recommend to resort to this method only in the most extreme case.
