Where can I get a bunch of blue body paint in a hurry (i.e. by Friday night)?

ETA: I'm thinking more "barbarian warrior" than "smurf", but woad is woad.

ETA after the fact: Thanks for the suggestions - Boston Costume did in fact have exactly the right stuff, and helpful staff who pointed me at the same stuff that sparkymonster did.

How long do you want it to last? http://www.mehandi.com/shop/skinindigo/ - I don't know if they do extra-fast shipping, but I've ordered from them in the past and this stuff is good.

i might try the boston costume company, otherwise known as the downstairs of dollar-a-pound/garment-district. you can call in advance and see if they've got it.
(they used to be right down near you at school, but they moved.)

Boston Costume is the best place. They sell water soluable kryolan paint in big pans. When I used to get painted blue in faux wode, this is what I used.

The indigo would be way sexier but the kryolon is easier and more practical. The garment district is totally the way to go.

Barring the better answers you've gotten, someplace like iparty will have SOMETHING.
