The alchemical compound is sold in various colours, from pure white to jet black, and takes the form of a thin paste. When rubbed on the skin, it changes the colour of the skin to match that of the paste. The actual colour of the user’s skin has no impact on the function of the paste. The new colour will last for 1d4+1 days, after which the paste begins to wear off. For the next 1d2 days, the user’s skin will appear as a mottled patchwork of the paste colour and the natural skin colour as the paste loses its effect. Use of skin toner paste grants the wearer a +5 circumstance bonus to Disguise skill checks while the paste is in effect. After the paste begins to wear off, the Disguise bonus remains, but the user now has a -5 circumstance penalty to Diplomacy skill checks, as his skin appears to have some terrible disease. It takes approximately ten ounces of skin toner (two jars) to treat the entire body of an average size human.
