Thread: Need Help: Mummy Facepaint suggestions?

Tweet

Hey all,
I'm looking for some help with face paint for a mummy outfit. Any suggestions?

I was going to go with the "monster palette" from Ben Nye, but don't know what other foundation or sealers to use.

Any suggestions? Any tutorials? Is there a better product to use?

And I've never done a full face cover-up before, so I'm hoping for some beginner's luck.

Thanks!

Sorry, just seeing this.

What kind of look are you going for?

First of all, if you have a friend with some airbrushing talent, get some air brush liquid makeup.

Ben Nye is a good brand.

Some other products that might be interesting to you is liquid latex to make wringles, or a product called "monster flesh" that gives a cracked/dried skin appearance.

Whatever makeup you decide on be sure to powder it after.

thud: I did this for a friend a few years back, and it turned out great and really wasn't hard. I really loved the textured look, too.
