Looks like they are selling a kit to do the FURIES make-up now. There is also an afro wig...

is it just me, or is the eye makeup placement a little jarring?

YELLOW FURIES gets no love as there is no yellow make-up. Looks like these are the only versions from the movie you can do:

BLACK/RED
GREEN/WHITE

Strange that they have the YELLOW faced on the package, but no yellow make-up.

And in the product description, it only states you get yellow and black facepaint.  Somewhat misleading, me thinks.

All colors can be made with varying degrees of red, green, and blue (aka RGB)

The RGB code for yellow is FF FF 00, (MS Paint uses the decimal equivalent 255, 255, 0) so full red, full green, and no blue.

So, mix the green and red evenly to get yellow!

  I have not seen it in actual stores. The photo I posted was from 80's TEE.

.....and you will get brown.  Yellow is a primary colour.  It can't be created by mixing.
I prefere the split face furies to the full colour face and eye patch.

Ah, the classic additive vs. subtractive methods...

On a computer, since it uses the additive method, the primary colors are red, blue, and green (commonly referred to as RGB)

As you add colors they (counter-intuitively) get lighter!

To see this in action, go into MS Paint, Click colors > Edit Colors > Define Custom Colors

Enter 255 (which is the Maximum value) for both Red and Green, and you see nice bright yellow appear. Take it the next step, and add all Blue, and there's White

The subtractive primaries, however, as 9d pointed out, and about which I had a momentary seizure, are red, blue, and yellow (or really, cyan, magenta, and yellow - commonly known as the CMYK color model, or four-color printing (where K = key, or black))
