The 'Gossip Girl' actor decided to dress as Dirk Diggler from 1997 movie 'Boogie Nights' for a party, and asked the make-up artist on the US teen show to help transform him.
He explained to Britain's Glamour magazine: "I got the girl that works on hair and make-up on the show to send me over a moustache, sideburns and the glue, and she told me how to do it. She said it would come off in the morning. Well, I could not get that damn glue off my lip and sideburns for days."
He added: "There was this horrible residue that I kept having to pick off my facial hair. People were like, 'What's wrong with your face?' and I was like, 'I don't want to talk about it.' "
Despite being embarrassing by his flaking skin, Chace's unusual appearance could have helped him find the girl of his dreams.
The 24-year-old star admits he is attracted to strange girls, insisting personality is far more important than looks.
He said: "I like high energy, odd personalities that keep you on your toes. I like spontaneous types and it doesn't hurt if they have a similar interest in music and sports."
