Its early, but its for Halloween. I'm going as a Tigeress and need to be orange. I asked my Mum, but she has no clue, does anyone know if it hurts the pours, blinds you or just plain messes you up?

Make sure the food colouring is not harmful in any way. Many are derivatives of E numbers. E numbers in foods are colour additives and some are very harmful. Tartrazine was used in childrens orange squash until it was dicovered to be carcinogenic(causes cancer).
Many E number cause hyperactivity in children and can affect the heart rate of adults. In short, anything that is artificial cannot be good for you.

NO for it has chemicals it the artificial liquid
But you can eat that food because the body absorn the chem's in it. But the skin cannot if It gets in there for a few hours you can get a rash or worse It just depends.

i do not think it will dye your skin per say.. or at least not to the degree you're looking for. i think the self tanner idea is very bright, or for this matter just using some really awful bronzer. maybe ben nye makes something you could use that would be harder to take off (easier to keep on..)?

It should be safe, but i don't know how well it will work at making you orange. Try self tanner - that makes you more orange then an oompa loompa.

yes. when you put any kind of ink on your body, even writing on ur hands or legs, it gets soaked up into your pores, and it is unhealthy for you. bathing in food coloring is like writing on urslef to the 10th power, so dont do it. unless you want to be dead for halloween

No, it does not hurt you, as food coloring is made to be in jested. However, you may want to find out how long it lasts. You may not want to still be a tiger in January....

Try latex body paint instead. I had a friend who painted herself gold one halloween and it came out really well.

Drink a dozen or so gallons of Sunny D in one sitting... that'll turn you orange.
