FX Wound and Burn Makeup Supplies:

  • Liquid Latex
  • Tissue or thin toilet paper
  • Grease makeup
  • Foundation
  • Liquid Blood
  • Makeup sponges

FX Wound and Burn Makeup Instructions:

  1. Begin by choosing a place to make your wound. Avoid sensitive areas and areas with a lot of hair. Then cleanse the area.
  2. Using a makeup sponge add a layer or two of liquid latex. Let the layers dry in between applications.

Two to three layers of liquid latex
  • Next we will build the wound. Put down a layer of liquid latex and add thin layers of tissue or toilet paper on top of the wet liquid latex. Add just 2 or three layers of the tissue or toilet paper and let these layers dry in between application.

  • Once you have done this you can add holes and tears to give the wound depth. I also like to push the edges of the liquid latex toward the center of the wound in some areas.

  • Once you have the overall look of your wound complete it is time to add some color!
  • Begin by using a foundation that matches your skin tone and cover the entire wound. This will make the grease paints look more natural on you.
  • Start with your lightest red and a makeup sponge. Then cover the majority of the wound and even outside of the wound with this light red.
  • Then move to your second darkest and add definition and depth in certain areas. Start to concentrate the darker colors in and on the areas that you cut earlier. I used a light red, a dark red, a purple and a black. Tip: If you do not have grease paint you can most certainly use eyeshadows and lipsticks!
