How to dress up as a zombie

While it is true that many tutorials on the Internet advise us to get specialized materials when disguising ourselves as a zombie, the truth is that achieving a professional result without the need to spend a large amount of money on it is also possible. To begin, we must be clear that a zombie is a living dead that has been bitten in a bloody way by another and that acts ruthlessly with every human being who crosses his path. If you are determined to disguise yourself as a zombie, we explain how to achieve a great result step by step.

• Material to recreate the wounds (latex, cotton with carpicola, sanitary adhesive ...)
• False blood
• Face makeup
• Old and broken clothes

one

In specialized stores you can find zombie costumes at great prices and with all the details you need to look terrifying at that party or celebration. However if you want to do it at home you should follow some timely recommendations to get the best results.

Start by recreating open wounds all over your body using easy-to-get materials such as sanitary tape, cotton or liquid latex.

two

Use old and torn clothing to characterize yourself correctly. Remember that the colors of this should be tenuous, without ever coming to highlight. In addition, garments should be completely torn by creating scraps that hang, etc.

3

Use face makeup. On the one hand, make use of face powder to make yourself pale and create strong black circles under your eyes. Do not forget the purple ones!

4

Buy edible fake blood and spread it all over your clothes. Remember that zombies are usually full of it! Create realistic touches by placing some blood in your mouth to immediately spit it out staining your chin.

5

It is very important that you do not forget the neck wound. Normally, the zombies have become undead because another has bitten his neck. Use the material from the first step to imitate a bite.

6

Create holes in your clothes and paint them with red and black watercolors around to imitate perforations of bullets in the body. Remember that, in all Hollywood movies, the police officer always tries to determine the zombies using a weapon.

7

Have fun creating your character and feel completely free to add different characterizations. You can, for example, tape a metal nail to your cheek to later add wounds around.

8

Look for different videos to help you create your makeup, for example, how to make up and disguise as a zombie using makeup powder or how to do it with liquid latex.

• You must be careful not to be allergic to any of the chemical products that you are going to use to recreate the wounds (liquid latex, ...)
• You can use cotton, red and transparent nail polish to paint different areas of your body.
• Try that your makeup is the most imaginative, as well as the details of your characterization, in this way you can surprise all your friends.
