Yes, it's Sharpie. He wanted to look "fiercer for longer."

Welp, mission accomplished, my friend!


Just in case you ever wondered, Windex kind of takes permanent marker off of faces.

He's a triple winner too with all those "W's". Fierce indeed!

Rubbing alcohol works...

Your son has the most beautiful eyes and those eyelashes go for miles!

oh my gosh. I just laughed so hard. I made everyone at my work look in my direction. This is hilarious.

Baby wipes? We used to use them for stage makeup, which can be pretty thick...

Karen said...

He's looking pretty fierce all right.....how's he look AFTER you got done yelling?

Just flippin' awesome.

You should have left it there for the Christmas photos.

Like it! I hear that WD-40 gets it off of walls but I am not sure if that is more or less appropriate than Windex! I know I would just leave it but I know my wife would not!

I see you forgot to mention why he's genetically predispositioned to want to sharpie a face. Ahem.

Sarah said...

And now the only picture I have in my head is you furiously spraying windex in your kids face!!!

Not to be used roughly, but the Mr. Clean Magic Erasers actually work on skin. It's like a buffer of sorts, removing older skin.

As a related tip, they work better than a pumice on dry, cracked heels.

You can use acetone (found in nail polish remover) or rubbing alcohol to remove it in the future. Or let him ride it out for a couple days...

At least he looks fierce so no one will mess with him before it wears off!

Well I'm certainly not messing with the kid. Maybe it's cause he's fierce or maybe it's 'cause he's crazy...doesn't matter. I'm too afraid.
