I got my zombie makeup yesterday

Post  Becky on Fri Oct 30, 2009 2:17 am

I'm psyched. I want to practice my technique, but my OCD won't let me waste it lol!

I can't decide between cadaver grey or sallow green for my death flesh color. There is a misty violet color and a maroon I plan on using for burst blood vessels, veins, wounds etc
I also have liquid latex for a special gore mask I am going to make of toilet paper from jaw to jaw on the bottom of my face, a bottle of fake blood, deep grey and dark purple for shadows and brusing/skin discoloration.

I guess I will have to start before the trick or treaters and then touch it up if I have to (probably won't because we also got transluscent setting powder so it won't smudge/rub off or sweat through.).
This is theatrical quality makeup so it says it may temporarily stain. I might be stuck a zombie lol!

The total cost was only about 20-25 dollars.

YAY! I'm so stoked to see the final product! Until my husband this year, I had never done zombie makeup. I learned that toilet paper thing from youtube. You're gonna love it, it works SO well! And you can tear open the toilet paper to make it look like a flesh wound if you want hehehe I'm disappointed that my kit didn't come with more gray. Because my husband looked very green, and I didn't really care for that. I think you should go with a grayish/white Smile

The sallow green, is more like a jaundice yellow alla Return of the Living Dead hehehe

I found some kick ass tutorials on youtube. That is where I heard about the Bill Nye wheel we drove 20 minutes for. Originally I wanted the death wheel but that was sold out but they had a monster wheel, which has similar colors.

He makes these disgusting bruise wheels too for realistic bruising. I almost got one of those too, there's always next year Impatient
