There was only one week to prepare, and I had never participated in a contest like this before. But then I told myself to just try \u2013 I could be one of the winners, who knows?<br><br>Then I brainstormed and came up with the idea of being a mermaid, though I was not totally satisfied with it, because I wanted to portray something with a darker character, and mermaids are too pretty and charming.<br><br>Eventually, I decided to be a siren. And since we do have a bathtub at home, I was positive that I could have a good representation of a captive siren and capture a creative shot in the water.<br><br>After deciding to be a siren, a lot of ideas started appearing in my head so much so that I couldn't sleep well at night. I was excited and anxious at the same time.<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"unified-block unified-message\"><div class=\"unified-message-avatar\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.blog.engoo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2022\/11\/17012655\/oren-1.png\" width=\"70\" height=\"70\"><\/div><div class=\"unified-message-content\"><div class=\"unified-message-header\">Engoo staff<\/div><div class=\"unified-message-description block-align-none\"><strong>Was the costume difficult to make?

I tried contacting professional artists and designers to help me out but they were all busy. I felt very sad at the time.<br><br>Luckily, my husband gave me hope and suggested that we just DIY everything \u2013 we could save a lot of money that way too. So instead of backing out, I agreed to his idea. I bought anything associated with the ocean (shells, ferns, plants, clay for the starfish, moss, etc.) as well as skeletal hands to make the costume look creepy. I also went to my parents' house and found some dried twigs from their tomato plant which I could use as additional props. And of course I bought latex paint for my face and body.<br><br>During the preparation for the shoot, my husband first glued tissue paper on my face to form the gills. Then he started painting my body while I painted my face. It wasn't that difficult since we'd already watched how to do it on YouTube. However, it took a lot of patience to paint and put details on my face since I was already wearing mesh contact lenses. My vision was very blurred as a result and I had a headache focusing on where to paint.<br><br>The hardest part of it was the photoshoot itself, because I was literally lying in a bathtub full of cold water, trying not to soak my painted face and body. I had to put something on my neck so I could float because it was too painful to keep my head above water on its own. I was shivering half of the time. It took us a while to start because we had to arrange the wig, and we had to cover the thing that supports my neck with the wig as well. We took as many shots to capture the best pose. After everything, I felt tired and had neck pain!<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"unified-block unified-message\"><div class=\"unified-message-avatar\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.blog.engoo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2022\/11\/17012655\/oren-1.png\" width=\"70\" height=\"70\"><\/div><div class=\"unified-message-content\"><div class=\"unified-message-header\">Engoo staff<\/div><div class=\"unified-message-description block-align-none\"><strong>Is Halloween popular in your country?

Since I'm not used to wearing contact lenses, I needed 30 minutes to put them in each of my eyes. On top of that, I didn't have anyone to help me put on makeup, so I had to blend the makeup and put it on myself.
