You need to go to CVS or a drug store and look up and down the make up aisles. I forget the name of the bottle I bought because it was so long ago, but it's great. It cost about $13 I believe it was "foundation" but I can't remember the brand. It's worth the $$ for the effect.

I found a Revlon bottle that worked. It was years ago so I forgot what was in it. I did have to "trim" the inside of the cap a bit as it had some sort of inner lining to seal the bottle that got in the way of...

Awhile back someone mentioned a make-up item called Corn Silk or something like that.. Supposedly the bottle works with the Bannon routine.

The brand you want is Max-Factor I believe, it contains a liquid/cream type make-up for women. You can find this at Wal-Mart, WalGreens, and grocery stores like Raley's, at least here in northern California. I still see the bottles in the various stores I mentioned.
By the way, I still have my original bottle and use it from time to time, John's routine is just about the best Coin in Bottle effect there is available - VERY strong!

I have'nt seen the routine discussed much but it is the only coin and bottle effect that I perform. I loved it from the first time I read it in his book.
I also came up with a gospel presentation with this effect that I use in the appropriate situations. I am pretty sure that the exact brand and type of bottle is disclosed in the "Smoke And Mirrors" book (my copy is loaned out to a friend at the moment). Good luck with it. GlenD
