I'm aware that the blog isn't really for this type of thing, but I thought some of you might be interested in it. I was out shopping today with F and we both needed Halloween costumes, after looking at loads of different ones, all were either too kinky (please help) or expensive . This is an easy way to make yourself look scary, cheaply and cleverly.
You will need:
-An old t-shirt or a vest ( I brought mine from primark,from the men's department, in a big size, it was £3.50) ideally it needs to be too big for you.
-A pair of scissors
-Fake blood
- Black paint (optional)
-A paint brush, or I used make up remover cotton wool pads 0__0
First place the t-shirt in a place where you can make it messy. Simply splatter blood onto the top, where you want it, and smooth it out with a brush or something.
Next, you can add a small amount of black paint around the blood splatters. Leave it to dry.
Once dry do exactly the same to the other side.
Once both sides are dry, use a pair of scissors to make little cut marks in the fabric. Using you fingers, pull the fabric around the cut make the cut bigger. Do this to both sides.
Then, simply cut into the around the sleeves and bottom of top to make it look ripped. Do this by making little cut marks around the edges one after each other and pulling it slightly.
Make up optional:
The little black plallete: Trish McEvoy, build your own palette. I have had this for a while and the brown will be great for random smudges.
The big black plallete: Smokin' hot shadow and blush palette, Barry M. This will be great on the eyelid and around the eye to make a distressed look, using the grey and black colours.
Lip gloss: Bourjois, effect 3D, volume and shine gloss. In 53 Corail artistic. I'm debating wether to use this.
Nail polish: Maybelline, colour show paint, in 265 wine shimmer. (Thanks to F ). This is a sparkly red colour which I thought would be a bit different.
17 eyes from boots eye shadow in Violet rock. This is a deep purple great for creating bruises.
Black lipstick, from Miss sporty 207 extreme black. This might be worn not sure about black lipstick yet!
Wilkinsons: face paint for my face and blood for the t-shirt and my face.
I'm sorry for awful pictures I have left this really late in the day as usual! Have fun making a zombie t-shirt and have a happy Halloween!
