Scabby Behavior-fotd (Grossness Warning.)




Sorry I didn't get this up yesterday. I didn't get home till pretty late. I wore this for ten hours yesterday. I'm happy to say it stayed on amazingly well for sloppily applied zombie make-up. I even went to Steak n Shake with this on. But considering I've worn crazier make-up to that Steak n Shake the waiter just brushed it off haha.

What I Used:

Face-
Random mix of white and ivory foundation (For base and general dead look.)
Liquid Latex (Applied with q-tips all over the face.)
Toilet Paper (Made into one ply then placed on the jawline and upper lip to create texture.)
Ben Nye Wound Wheel (Patted, splatted and brushed all over to create wounds, gashes and generally nasty bits.)
Ben Nye Fake Blood (Applied haphazardly over the crunchy/nasty bits.)
Random safari green (Rubbed onto the lips.)
Wet n Wild blush in Heather Silk (Added to one side of the face.)

Eyes-
TFSI
Fyrinnae Pixie Epoxy
Shiro cosmetics in Kokiri Forest (A olivey-green that leans more green applied to the lid.)
Mac cosmetics e/s in Jealousy Wakes (A lovely medium green applied to the crease and lower lid.)
Hi-Fi cosmetics e/s in Storm of Thorns (A slightly darker green applied to the inner crease for depth and used along the lower lash line.)
Black Rose Minerals e/s in Gremlin (A sheer-ish lime green patted onto the inner corner.)
Black Rose Minerals e/s in Skink (A beautiful ivory with fine sparkles used to highlight.)
Almay liquid eyeliner in black
Wet n Wild cream eyeliner in black
Mascara

lips-
bare

A good friend of mine had road rash on her face a few years ago after she fell off of her bike. After I put this on I showed her and she showed me the pictures of her face after the fall. The scabby bits on my face looked just like her old wounds. She then decided to poke at my face where the make-up was applied. Man, I love Halloween.
My Halloween was fun, my friends and I watched The Exorcist which I had never seen before. I really enjoyed it even though I'm not into scary films. I suppose I prefer suspenseful horror rather then scary/gorey horror. (Even though I love special effects make-up.)
Did you guys have a fun Halloween?

Gore Whores: WARNING GROSS STUFF AHEAD






I was bored ok? Since I dropped my logic class my work load has diminished. I am starting a new Personal Finance Class this week but it's online. I've already finished two of the three assignments whilst I was doing this. I never realized how happy doing make-up makes me. I've been doing my friends make-up almost three times a week. Since I outed myself as an uncertified make-up artist the girls on the floor have been coming to me at every hour. I really enjoy it because I'm getting to try out different things on different eye shapes. What's especially funny to me is that when they ask for extreme make-up it's the make-up I wear every day. They always say to me "Oh my god it's so intense. I'd never wear this much eye make-up."

Burnt Girl:
I start of with a clean face, than I cover my brow. Liquid latex can rip off hair so please cover your brow before applying liquid latex.
A layer of liquid latex on my bare skin, then another. On the third layer I start applying the tissue paper. There are at least two layers of tissue paper plus liquid latex. I applied one layer of toilet paper on my eye, don't apply the liquid latex on your eye. The fumes around my eye were enough to make them water, I can only imagine how much worse it is actually on the eye. Paint accordingly with blacks, pinks and reds then Bob's your uncle. (Rip off gently if you want to use this again. Do not wash it off!)

One-Eyed Girl:
After ripping off the first application I cleaned off my face. (Well duh... there was crap all over it.) Happily cover your brows again so you don't rip off your eyebrow hairs. Apply one layer of liquid latex around your eye and add toilet paper over top. Apply a second layer of liquid latex, wait till it dries and use the Ben Nye Burn and Injury wheel for the nasty ripped out eye effect. Since this isn't extra crispy like the burnt girl you'll want to add some fake blood. I used some coagulated blood to add the effect. Bah I should I have used the blood on the actual eye. Bah. There is always next time. :3

What do you guys think? Do you have any advice to offer for improvement?

Good Ghouls Gone Bad FOTD





Gross huh? I did this with toilet paper, liquid latex, red lipstick, fake blood and black cream eye shadow. It was actually easy to do. You just glue the paper on your face as tattered/torn skin then bloody it up. I used rolled up paper around my eye to make it look popped out or gorged out.
If you want a tutorial please tell me and I'll try to re-do this. But instead with lash glue because liquid latex hurts taking off. Ouch.
:3 I did this for a contest on youtube. I hope to win at least third place. The contest has some really amazing entries. This was lots of fun and I hope to do more looks like this in the future. Nymph would NEVER let me do this because of her skin but maybe I can convince others. *stares at fiancee* XD
Have a good day ya'll!
