Applying Artificial Moustaches

There are alternate ways of attaching artificial moustaches. A few come with peel and stick tape for quick and easy applications. Others clip on with a wire base and can be adjusted to many styles. Lastly, there are those that should be cut exactly in the center, resulting in two equal size pieces. To wear these, you should apply Spirit gum to your face and let it dry slightly, becoming sticky to your touch. Then press the moustache pieces into place. To remove, simply peal off and use the Spirit Gum Remover to remove any glue left on the face. Tip: Do not apply spirit gum remover directly onto the moustache. Did you know that moustaches have been worn by military men and regiments/ranks were equaled only by the number of styles/variations? Younger men and lower ranks wore smaller/less elaborate moustaches. With advancement in ranks, moustaches became thicker and bushier.
