How to do wound makeup at home

Today you will learn how easy it is to make a bloody wound or cut yourself.

For this you will need:

1. any paints, be it gouache, watercolor or professional makeup: red, brown, blue, bloody;
2. special latex for makeup or PVA glue;
3. cotton wool;
4. glue stack;
5. paint brush;
6. water;
7. foundation;
8. alcohol;
9. black thread;
10. sharp and thin needle;
11. artificial blood.

First you need to degrease the area where your wound will be located. We wipe the skin with alcohol. Please note that you need to work quite quickly so that the glue does not dry out and eventually roll off during the process.

We apply the material that you have chosen for work (let there be glue) to the skin in a thin layer. Immediately try to make the edges as thin and transparent as possible. This area should correspond to the future size of the wound.

We tear off a piece of cotton wool and make a plate out of it, the inside of which will be thicker. The edges should blend into the skin. The realism of your wound will depend on this stage. Glue the blank to the hand.

We completely cover the cotton pad with glue. In this case, it is better to work with a stack. It will allow you to evenly cover the entire surface and saturate the cotton wool if you press it down.

Now you need to build a skeleton for the future cut. It will consist of two cotton walls. Choose the length of these walls based on the size of the wound, but let the height be about 3 cm. If you want to make a minor cut, then about 2 cm. One edge should be as thin as the cotton pad that we made under the wound. It is with this edge outward that we attach both walls. There should be a slot inside. We connect the ends of the walls.

These walls need to be completely saturated with glue and a real wound must be created. The transitions between the outer walls and the surface of the hand should be smooth, and the upper part of the walls should be very thin, like skin. We achieve this effect by squeezing the cotton wool with our thumb on one side and the stack on the other. This entire workpiece should freeze properly. If you are working with PVA, this process will take a little longer.

We select a foundation that matches the color of the skin and completely cover the entire workpiece with it, moving on to the body. We also allow the surface to dry completely.

Now let's begin the most interesting process. We paint all the recesses that are in our workpiece with brown paint. This will be the cut itself, somewhere under the base, etc. We make the cut saturated, and in other places we shade the paint. We just apply the paint not in liquid form, but with a consistency like sour cream, so that the surface dries faster and the colors are richer. We tint it blue in several places, as if this wound was caused by a blow, and a bruise has formed.

Cover the entire surface with bloody paint. If it is not there, then mix red and brown, and then work with it. We cover the bulges of our wound with red paint.

In fact, decorating the outside may not be that scary. You can do the same thing in a small diameter around the wound, showing that there is inflammation, but you definitely need to properly decorate the inside.

For a more frightening effect, you can sew the wound with black threads, and then cut some of the stitches. Pierce the needle somewhere in the middle of the walls so as not to touch your skin. Do not tighten the seams at all, unless this is by design. When you sew, hold the workpiece with your finger so as not to tear it off.

After you have finished sewing, you need to paint over the places where the thread comes out of the leather with brown paint, as if there was dried blood there.

We fill the wound with blood, smear it on the skin, threads and make it look as if it is flowing out of the wound. Blood can also be made at home from water, paint and gelatin, bringing it to the desired consistency (1-1.5 liters of water + 40 g of gelatin. Boil water, dissolve gelatin in it. Mix red paint or food coloring until the color is obtained, closest to the color of human blood).

This is the kind of horror you can now do on your own. These wounds will definitely look scary at a themed party.

If you are preparing for a Halloween themed party, then this master class is just for you. With this makeup you can surprise anyone and even scare them.

To create an artificial wound you will need:

1. PVA glue or special makeup;
2. alcohol;
3. cotton wool;
4. foundation;
5. blue, green shadows;
6. stack;
7. artificial blood;
8. brushes for makeup, tone and shadows;
9. brown, red face painting.

You can make a wound on any part of the skin. For the master class, the cheekbone under the eye was chosen as one of the most convex places on the face. When choosing where to make a wound, imagine that it actually happens and where it could actually be. In this case, it is assumed that the cheekbone was hit.

A smokey eye with black shadows is ideal for this look; you can find a tutorial on how to create it here.

The area where the wound will be should be degreased with alcohol and a cotton pad. During this procedure, it is best to close your eye. After this, apply a thin layer of PVA glue or special silicone makeup to the skin. It is best to work with a stack, since the brush will deteriorate after such procedures and during the work it will be uncomfortable to use, since the makeup will dry out.

We decide in advance what size the wound will be and attach a thin layer of cotton wool with smoothly fading edges to the glue. We fix the cotton wool with glue.

While the glue has not dried, we need to make two small walls out of cotton wool and secure them to the prepared surface. These walls will determine the length of the wound. We fasten their edge, leading it to nothing along the skin. The distance between the walls should be very narrow and the walls as thin as possible. We cover them with glue and shape them using a stack and fingers. Position the wound so that it looks real.

We made a mold for the wound. Now you need to wait for it to dry completely and you can start painting.

Apply foundation over the entire surface of the wound and smoothly move onto the skin of the face. We also wait for the tone to dry. If you don't let it dry, the paint will mix with it.

Now our task is to paint over the recesses with dark shades. We paint the space inside with brown face painting. Also, if you have any depressions around the wound, then paint them with a light layer too. After this, we cover the top with face painting of a bloody shade and distribute it with a brush both outside and inside.

Using blue and green shadows we set the tone around the wound, like a bruise.

Add artificial blood to the middle of the wound. Due to the dark-colored cavity, the blood will look richer.

Add more blood to smoothly flow over the skin, if necessary. Spread a little blood around the wound.

This is how easy it is to create horror on your face. Add a black eye or smudged mascara to your look and your look will definitely become realistic!

From this master class you will learn how to make an artificial cut on your hand, burn, wound, bullet hole at home. This makeup is suitable for a Halloween themed party and your look will definitely be the most memorable.

To create wounds you will need:

• PVA glue or special makeup (latex);
• alcohol;
• cotton wool;
• paint red, brown, red-brown, blue;
• artificial blood;
• stack;
• thin napkin;
• brush for paint, foundation;
• water;
• foundation to match your skin color.

To create voluminous wounds and cuts, you can use both PVA glue and special latex, which can be found in professional cosmetics brands. The advantage of the latter is that wound bases dry faster. In both cases, it is necessary to take into account that the material adheres very tightly to the skin and its removal may be accompanied by unpleasant sensations. Therefore, it is best to apply makeup to those parts of the body where there is little or no hair. Wounds can be made not only on the arm, but also on the neck and face.

Since the makeup will be on the skin for a long time, it is necessary to degrease the area where the wound will be located with alcohol. Then we will eliminate the occurrence of irritation.

Then apply a thin layer of glue using a stack. The brush can be used if you are making artificial cuts and wounds using PVA. The special makeup dries quickly and after creating a wound, the brush can be thrown away. In any case, you need to work quickly so that the material does not dry out and the wound is intact.

We take a very thin piece of cotton wool and distribute it over the applied glue. For the wound to look realistic, the edges should seem to blend smoothly into the skin. That is, the middle of the wound will be denser, and from the center it will become thinner and thinner until it completely disappears.

Apply a thin layer of glue on top of the cotton wool, making the edges transparent. So we made a backing to make an artificial cut or wound.

Now you need to decide what size wound you want. The size of the further blank made of cotton wool depends on this. We tear off the strip of the required width and length. One edge should be blunt and thick, the other should smoothly go away from the first. It is with the thin side that we attach the cotton wool to the glue base. The workpiece should be perpendicular to the surface on which you are making an artificial wound. We attach the second part in the same way, only we direct the thin edge in the other direction. There should be an empty strip inside, the width of which will depend on the size of the wound.

Now we need to cover the entire surface with glue, while simulating the cut as it will look in the end. At first the walls will be thick and sloppy. Then we simply stack the walls to make them as thin as possible and pointed towards the top. The base of the walls on the outside should have a smooth bend. The thinner the walls and the smaller the distance between them, the more natural the wound will be.

After our base has dried, completely cover it with a thin layer of foundation, which should match the color of the skin. We distribute the base beyond the glue over the skin. The tone must also dry before applying paint.

You can use regular paints for painting or special makeup. The darkest places will be in the recesses of our base. First, use blood-dark paint to completely fill the middle, namely the cut itself. Blend the paint along the outer walls of the wound, smoothly moving onto the skin. We make indentations with brown paint, also shading them. Add a little blue around the wound to create a bruised effect.

Cover the most convex parts of the wound with red paint. The wound is ready, now you can give it more drama.

We fill the wound with artificial blood, making a small drip. You can make your own blood from gelatin, water and paint, or use a special one. The wound doesn't have to be so red and inflamed all around. You can make a neat cut with thin walls and blood.

In the same way as you made a cut, you can make an artificial bullet hole. The diameter of the hole should be 1.5-2 cm. The creation of a wound follows the already known steps, only the wall needs to be made in the shape of a ring. The top edge should flare outward slightly.

We fill the inner part with dark paint, as well as all the outer recesses. Use red paint to make splashes of blood and fill the middle with blood so that it flows downwards.

It's very easy to make Halloween burns at home. To do this, we need a very thin napkin or paper handkerchief, which needs to be divided into several more layers. We squeeze the napkin into a piece and straighten it a little. Tear off a piece with fringe-like edges. We attach it to a layer of glue and also cover it with glue on top. You need to stick it exactly with the bumps and blisters, this is the effect we are trying to achieve.

Cover with a layer of foundation and decorate with paints, adding more red. You can smear a little blood, as if the wounds are oozing.

In all cases, the blanks do not need to be filled with blood, the artificial wounds do not need to be painted and they can be made very thin, but it is necessary to apply foundation. This way we will make scars.

This is how you can very easily create terrifying Halloween makeup at home in the form of artificial wounds, burns and cuts.
