Doe – for girls:

Materials – 

• Light brown, white, pink, and black face paint 
• Deer/doe ears and tail 
• Plain white or light brown long-sleeved shirt 
• Brown fur vest 
• Black pants 
• Fur-cuffed boots or shoes

Instructions – 

1. Cover the top part of your face or if you want, the cheek and forehead with light brown face paint. 
2. Wait for it to dry, then apply white dots of paint onto your cheeks while surrounding your eyes as well. 
3. You can use pink, black, or both to do the nose. If both, apply the pink to the top of the black to add a pop of color. 
4. Wait for the face paint to dry then put on the white or brown top. 
5. Next is the fur vest. 
6. You can add the ears on, then the tail after putting on your pants. 
7. Last but not least, you add the fur-cuffed boots or shoes and your dear/doe look is complete.
