How To Create Peeling Zombie Skin

Our BOSS Hair and Make-Up Artist Martin McClean can create anything from a glamorous evening look with a flawless finish to a gruesome, gory costume that will make you grimace.

In time for Halloween, Martin has put together a guide to help you make your own peeling zombie skin at home!



- Colour the area you want to work on in red greasepaint face paint or lipstick. Think about the shape of the wound at this point.

- Melt gelatine in water.

- Allow it too cool right down to room temperature.

- Paint the geltine on the red area then lay toilet tissue over the top. 

- Paint more gelatine over tissue until it goes transparent. 

- Dry with a cold blast from a hair drier. 

- Keep doing this until you are happy with the thickness.

- Tear holes in and peel back pieces of the tissue and squirt in fake blood.


Easy and gross!
