Posted on 25. Oct, 2009 by emelda in events

I had fun at Thrill the world event today. I was not one of the zombie dancers but Daniel was.I was there as an unofficial photographer and make up artist for Daniel.

The event was a success i believe ( i do not know if they broke the world record or not) but looking at the crowd@ dancers i believe they did their best and happy with it

Everyone was dressed to “kill”… it’s so fun to see them dancing looking like that! Halloween was celebrated earlier this year definitely!

Anyway, if you wanna know more about this event and wanna see more pictures of the zombies. please head to facebook and search for thrill the world 2009 shah alam

and to those who wants to know how to achieved ghostly look for your upcoming Halloween party.. here’s the tips for you. It’s easy and simple and it takes around 30-1 hours to do the whole make up look! So enjoy!

You will need

• Face moisturizer – this is to prevent your skin from getting too dry from all those crazy thick make up! You definitely do not want to add another hole in your pocket just to buy another set of anti  wrinkle creams im sure
• Foundation that’s way fairer than your original skin/concealer- as your face base.
• Tissue paper – as your fake rotting skin.
• UHU GLUE – The school kid’s glue not those chapstick looking glue – this is to stick the tissue on your face. You can use latex white paint on the face to stick but that will be  costly and i do not know where we can get that here in Malaysia- latex white paint i mean.
• Corn flour- the last touch up for the skin… use this towards teh end of the process.
• eye shadow – Purple, black, chocolate, red in color – to make bloody looking scars..blackish eye.. lips … etc wherever applied.
• baby powder.- to get that white face look..but again if you have white paint.. you may not need this depending on your face paint product. If its greasy… you may need powder to set the paint on your face.

make sure your face is clean before you apply those make up on. This is the step by step process. Sorry no video .. i totally have forgotten about it .. managed to just take photo’s though..hope this will help you set your self for halloween party! good luck!

1. After cleanising your face.. put on generous amount of moisturizer on…
2. Put tonnes of foundations/ concealer or both and apply evenly on your face.
3. Set your face with baby powder.. your face should be silky smooth and super white by now
4. Apply UHU glue or other brand glue so long as it’s washable on your tissue
5. paste it on your face.. wait for it to dry out ( approximately 3 to 5 min)
6. once glue dries up… apply another layer of foundation/concealer or both on your face.. it’s ok if  your foundation/concealer touches or smeared to the tissue
7. apply powder again
8. now slowly tear some tissue of the face  – This to create the rotting/ open wound effect on the face
9. Put some red and black paint inside the “wound” and bit of brown and red on the side of the tissue…same goes to your eye rims… black, purple, red and chocolate.. this will give you the dark eye, bloody look.
10. paint your lips black and dabbed some red color on your chin for the bloody lips effect.
11. Once everything is done.. take your brush and dab the corn flour on the side of your “wound @ tissue” ..this to ensure that tissue stick firmly on your face and makes it look like your “original” skin.

That’s it peeps.. and you are set to go!

Its simple, easy and cheap.. all you need is your old make up kit or your current make up kit and walaa.. you have your ultimate halloween look!
