You know you have slightly too much time on your hands when you find yourself made up like a Zombie at 10.15am on a Friday morning…..

In my defence it’s “almost” seasonally appropriate, and I’ve been dying to give the Zombie look a go for a while. Trés chic, non?

I took inspiration from one of my favourite Horror Movies, George A. Romero’s Dawn of the Dead. Features two of my favourite things, Zombies and Shopping Sprees, what’s not to love?

Below is everything I used to create the look.

I hope you like it as I really enjoyed doing it, I’m not trained in the stage/ special effects side of things but it’s an area I’m really interested in and would love to work in some day.

PS. It was actually really easy to remove with Baby Oil and I was back to my (hopefully) less scary self in no time.
