My nephew wanted to be a bum for Halloween last year and my brother didn't want to use all the brown make-up for the beard. My nephew has sensitive skin so i told him to put vaseline on his chin and cheeks, then take coffee grounds and put them on his face (on the area where he applied the vaseline) for his beard.  This worked great.  It didn't irritate his skin at all and was very easy to clean up. -- Melissa, Janesville, MN
