So I've decided NOT to go as Hidan, but rather as Pein, the leader of the Akatsuki. But i need to know where to find some sort of adhesive to stick the nose peircins on with. Help please!

for the brige of the nose right? um... try just normal elmer's glue as long as it doesnt get knoked around it shouldnt fall off i hope and if you dont want to do that you have one of two opitions draw them on or get the the real thing sure it'll hurt like hell but that just makes the costume look more real, lol im only joking... i think... well anyway elmers glue should work give it a try

I dont know about elmers, your sweat and oil in your skin would probibly eat that away in an hour or less.

This might be a little better.

Unfortunatly it's not halloween season so you cant go to your local costume shop. Maybe go to the local craft store like michles or joanne's and ask them if they have any adhesive that can be applied on the skin for costumes.

Thanks, I actually found one thing out. I have a year round costume shop right down the street from me and they suggested Spirit Gum. So I figured that would work. ^_^

Spirit gum is awesome, just make sure you can get the bottle open afore you leave for the con. Mine glues itself shut between cons. I have to get my dad to open it before I go, and even he has trouble. Also, make sure you have spirit gum removal! OUCH! If you don't, you could end up in massive pain and potentially destroy yer makeup props.

Rubbing alcohol works for removing spirit gum, too. Since you're just using it for fake piercings and not prosthetic pieces (which it is bad for), though, spirit gum remover is great if you've got it.
