Claim 16:
17. A method for applying a decorative paint to the epidermis of a human, the method comprising the steps of:
(a) applying a stencil system around a body of a subject individual, masking thereby a bathing suit pattern on the epidermis, the stencil system comprising the mask bands which each mask a portion of the bathing suit pattern including at least the upper waist mask band adapted to extend around the waist delimiting the upper limitation of a bikini bottom form and comprising at least one bikini mask band including thigh mask band portions each adapted to extend around a thigh to delimit the lower delimitation of the bikini bottom form, the stencil system itself providing a layer which protects the underlying epidermal area from an applied body paint, defining further an epidermal painting area corresponding to the bathing suit pattern;
(b) covering the epidermal painting area with an epidermal painting material to cause the epidermal painting material to contact the epidermis only on the bathing suit pattern masked by the stencil system;
(c) allowing the epidermal painting material to dry; and
(d) removing the stencil system from the subject individual, thereby leaving the painted bathing suit pattern.
