easy zombie wound tutorial ❤



As Halloween is just around the corner I decided to do something a little bit more creepier than my usual make-up and of course I had to do a zombie wound. As usual I will list all the products I used to create this look below and if you have any questions or comments please leave them below or sent me a tweet.


Products used;

PVA glue
Tissue paper/kitchen roll
Fake Blood
Black nail varnish 
Red nail varnish 
Foundation and/or concealer 
Setting powder or Baby powder
Brown, black and blue eyeshadow 




  • first put one layer of tissue on the area where you plan to make the wound
  • roll up pieces of tissue into sausage shapes and map out the wound
  • add multiple layers of tissue and PVA glue over the wound outline to make it look more seamless
  • once the tissue paper is dry cover the tissue with a foundation or a concealer and carefully cut the center of the wound, then fill the center of the wound with a black eyeshadow or facepaint.



  • set the foundation or concealer with a setting powder or baby powder this help reduce any shine from the PVA glue.  Add red nail varnish to the rim of the wound and add small amounts of black to the rim to make it look like congealed blood
  • fill the wound with fake blood, as much or as little as you like
  • add black, brown and blue eyeshadow to your new zombie skin, the more you add the more dead you look.

Quick and easy halloween make-up | POP ART! ❤


This Halloween why not try something different, embrace the 1950s become living pop art!  This is super easy and looks great with a plain outfit or a cute 50s dress.  This is perfect if you are like me, someone who loves Halloween but doesn't want to spend too much on special make-up and costumes.  This look was completed with three basic products and two of them you probably already own. 


Products used;

Black eyeliner, this can be pencil, gel or liquid.  I found liquid to be the easiest but I did use a mixture of the three.  Use the black eyeliner to boldly fill in your eyebrows, don't worry about having a scouse brow it will look good soon.  Pick one side of your face and draw a line from your ear to your chin following the shape of your jaw bone,  also draw a line around your nostril, make sure its on the same side as the jaw bone line.  Add a line down the centre of your nose and finishing at the tip and to finish line your lips.

White face paint, I bought a snazaroo cake bar from ebay for less than £3. Before you add the dots make a tear drop shapes under one eye and then with the back of a make-up brush or pencil add white dots all over your face, try to make them as opaque as possible.

Red Lipstick, I think this is step is self explanatory but apply red lipstick.  Once you have applied the lipstick add someone which highlights with the white face paint. 

Blue eye shadow, I used to blue eye shadow to fill in the tear shapes I made with the white face paint, try to use the brightest blue you have.  Once you have done that outline the tear shapes with a black liquid liner and you are finished. 


To complete the look add a black or dark brown bob wig or have a cute 50s hair style, I used 'Chestnut' wig from Geisha Wigs.
