Cover yourself with plasters where you want to cut.
Give yourself a henna or fake tattoo Make "wounds" with makeup, like lipstick.
Take a small bottle of liquid red food coloring and warm it slightly by dropping it into a cup of hot water for a few minutes. Uncap the bottle and press its tip against the place you want to cut. Draw the bottle in a cutting motion while squeezing it slightly to let the food color trickle out. Draw on the areas you want to cut using ice that you've made by dropping six or seven drops of red food color into each of the ice-cube tray wells.
Paint yourself with red tempera paint. 'Cut' your skin with nail polish (it feels cold, but it's hard to get off) Use red food coloring on your skin.
