this one (makeup) was:

#declare makeup_color = rgb <0.6, 0.3, 0.1>;

#declare skin_makeup =
        texture {pigment { shader {shader_file "skin.slp"
                              "As"  1
                              "skinColor"  makeup_color}}
finish {ambient c01*0.05+0.2 diffuse 0.6
specular 0.7 roughness 1/20 brilliance 4
metallic 0.5
}}

How you will place it, this depends of kind of object:
In one render I used twice patterned texture_map:
gradient, with one strip through the eyes, which contains scaled leopard
In second, I used UV mapping from imported objects, on mesh 2,; this is
much easier.
In third, I used UV mapping from imported objects, on bezier patches; this
needs applying a texture to every single patch.
-in case of blobs, you only need to apply a texture to single blobs.
