Tips on zombie/dead make-up?

Anybody know any good tips on how to look dead?

I don't know when I'll actually use it(actually, I know I will ASAP just for fun), but I know I will want to look dead at some point. I am hoping to find a zombie walk nearby...

Any suggestions?

People say I look dead..
haha. But, I'm proud of it.

I'm naturally extremely pale...so, I use a slightly paler foundation to make it a bit more extreme.
I put on black kohl eyeliner, on top and bottom....then black eyeshadow up to the crease.
I have a dull red eyeshadow..that I dab over the eyeliner on the bottom.
Then, I put more of the red on my lid...from the crease...almost to the brow...blending it nicely.
I don't wear lipstick or anything. Just chapstick.
It's always cool to add in silver sparkles in random places on your face.
Like up your nose! (haha, kidding)
finish it off with mascara
and you're good to go!

Uh well, I know there's lots of other places on the web where people talk about zombie makeup. I've been a zombie for halloween a couple of times. You're going to need a foundation, grey or white or both. An accent color, such as green or blue, and red and black for the eyes. Last time I did it I used white, grey and green cream foundation, white powder all over to set it, dark red, black and blue eyeshadows (on eyes AND cheeks) and... I think a red lipliner for the eyes as well. I only got a couple of pics and what bothered me was that the chest skin that was exposed was regular-flesh colored whereas my face was blue-grey. Anyway, good luck.

If your area has one...Hot Topic is the perfect place to go.

Or maybe a halloween/costume store.

Just look at a zombie and figure out what type of make-up you need. Then go into a store and buy some white make-up foundation/ powder (most zombies are white)
red lipstick or face crayons, black eyeshadow to make the eyes drasticly visible....Just use your imagination

all you need to do is use a foundation a shade paler than your skin colour n dont forget to attack ur lips n eyelids with that touch up with whity blue powder n you'll look ready to kick the bucket

white eyeshadow all over face as foundation. suck your cheeks in and put blue and black mixed eyeshadow along the line straight up (as you would put on blush). put black all around the eyes and mix in with the white. add blue to the crease of the eyes put blue lipstick on your lips and wipe white eyeshadow over you lips over the blue lipstick.
