1) For very cheap, simple but effective female hips. Get a block of foam such as that used in upholstery; this should be about 4" thick. Using a very sharp knife or blade (mind your hands!) cut into two equal sized blocks about 12" by 9". Start carving. Your aim is to create an oval shape, retaining most of the thickness at the middle and towards the top of the block and then tapering to a thin edge at the bottom and sides.Imagine an egg sliced down the middle top to bottom. The final size you want depends on your own size, but I find 10" by 8" works well for me. Then simply squeeze yourself into a panty-girdle or corselette (this needs to be tight to stop your hips floating !) and fit in your pads. Bum pads can be done the same way. 2) Beard cover tricks Having shaved closely (best after a day or two's growth), first either rub in some lipstick or apply a blusher to your beard area. Rub ib well. Apply beard cover or light theatrical makeup to beard area only and apply powder to set. Also rub this in lightly. Then use your all-over foundation on top. Try it!
