A black comedy of manners about vast wealth and a woman who can define herself only through the perceptions of others. The beautiful Lily Bart lives among the nouveaux riches of New York City - people whose millions were made in railroads, shipping, land speculation and banking.

But her quest comes to a scandalous end when she is accused of being the mistress of a wealthy man. Exiled from her familiar world of artificial conventions, Lily finds life impossible.

They were cute and stayed on for days!
Color: Set B:3 gold+3 silver
These face sparkle tattoos are great! If you apply them right, they can last several days. My first try, I got the entire tattoo wet all at once. It slid around and it ended up crooked. And because I couldn’t apply pressure to the entire area, some of the spots came off fairly easy. My second attempt was much better. I started on my nose area and then did one cheek at a time, holding it firmly in place the entire time. It was straight and everything stayed on until days later whenI used makeup remover to take it off. I really love these. I wore them for the holidays and felt fun and festive. I WILL buy them again!

Worth it!
Color: Set D:6 holographic multicolor
Great product. Great price. Used for myself and a friend for her first 5k race. I also let me 3yr old daughter wear some for her 1 mile fun run. They lasted throughout the day/race. My recommendation if you buy. Cut the single piece into 3 separate. Nose, one for each side and apply in 3 separate sections. It takes a touch longer BUT it is easier to apply. Especially if your face is smaller and it’s easier to handle.

Rave Freckles!
Color: Set D:6 holographic multicolor
I got these for a Rave. They were very cute once I figured out the best way to put them on. I had to go through 2 before I figured it out. They stayed on well (as well as any temp tattoo can). If you have trouble getting them off, just get some facial oil cleanser! They were cute and I got lots of compliments.

Easy application
Color: Set D:6 holographic multicolor
Lasts all day. Is a bit sticky to the touch once applied (which actually helps keep my glasses from slipping). Fairly easy to remove with some oil and a cloth, didn't try removal wipes that come with them.
