Fever, Illness and Blotchy Skin. - Instructions,Effect and Conclusion

So on to creating fever, illness and blotchy skin, this is the most interesting and I would be more likely to use on Miss Havisham. The finished part should look like a very Ill, blotchy skin, sweaty woman.

Fever - what they have got, how ill are they, is it a progression, rash,how it reacts and what the symptoms look like. 

Tired,sweat,blotchy skin:
Glycerin -you can get it from Boots, for sweat! 
Eye drops - models eyes can dry out under photographic lights. 
Pipettes- good for anything blood, glycerin. 
Latex- Charles Fox - smells strong
Stipple sponges - sweat,texture and broken veins. 
Get rid of spots etc.
Green,yellow and red make brown. 
Brown colour under the eyes and on top right at the lash line. 
Then dab red with your fingers and use a stipple bush all over the face to create a blotchy skin tone. 
Use the glycerin to create sweat dabs on the forehead and under the eyes. 
Then use the latex from the cuts and bruise technique to create flakey ill skin. 
Conclusion: I loved this effect, and how it looked through the camera.It began me thinking about how ill and horrible Miss Havisham would have looked being indoors, wearing the same clothes and never washing, also being around the hot oil lamps day in day out.
