Zombie makeup tutorial

Grr arg!  Today I’ve got a zombie makeup tutorial for you, as requested by one of my gorgeous readers.

I did quite a bit of research on zombie costume makeup before I made this video.  It was quite hard to put together a zombie look, because there are just so many different types of zombie makeup.  It seems that every zombie film has a different image of the way zombies look.  So what I’ve done is put together a video that will show you a bunch of different makeup techniques which you can mix and match to create your own zombie look.  You might also like to take a peek at my fake wound tutorial, as this would be great as part of a zombie costume.

I have tried really hard to use only items that you would either have around the house, or which you could obtain easily and cheaply.  So many zombie makeup tutorials use very specialist products, like liquid latex, which can be pricey and difficult to find.  There are also a lot of tutorials that use items like craft glue and acrylic paint to create the zombie effects.  While these do give a realistic result, they are so bad for your skin.  I’ve used things that will be a bit better for your skin.  They’re also a lot easier to remove!

To get this look, you will need:

-flour

-water

- BB cream or liquid foundation

- Red lip-liner pencil

-Red lipstick

-Black lipstick

- Brown eyeshadow

-Black eyeshadow

-Grey Eyeshadow

-Green eyeshadow

-Blue eyeshadow

-Purple eyeshadow

- Black eyeliner pencil

Enjoy!
