Who thought Jessica Alba could look this scary!

You can still look hot while being super scary… 

Wanna know how I got this smile?👄🔪🎥 ||| •Step 1: Apply liquid latex ( from Halloween store or online). Use a disposable sponge because it will ruin ur brushes. Separate 2 ply tissue and apply 1 layer of tissue over latex. Smooth down. Repeat this step for three layers. Seal with latex. •Step 2: Apply foundation to match the color of your face. •Step 3: Using a palette knife, create the “ripped mouth” effect, slowly dragging the slit up towards your ear. •Step 4: Using Red lipstick fill in the inner part of the slit. I used “Sex Pot” matte lipstick by @motivescosmetics.  Step 5: Mimic bruising by using deep red & plum shades wherever u see fit. Step 6: Use fake blood (liquid) & thick blood (both from @bennyemakeup) to add some realism to the whole look.  Step 7: I originally wanted my lips to be bloody but I wasn’t crazy about the way that it looked so I applied some foundation to my lips and a hint a deep purple for some dimension. ||| •Wig: “Caramel Delight” by @powderroomd @hairhegoes ||| The full tutorial will be on YouTube on Sunday. 📲DeniseAsiAm ||| 🎧American Horror Story theme

@Champion_SFX “Here I have created my own version of a torn out/blown up eyeball, to create this look I used a cotton pad to hide my own eye, layers of cotton and latex, red wool and fake blood. To create the eye ball prosthetic, I used a ball of white play doh, clear nail varnish and red wool ” Submit your photo for a shout out, check out the link in my profile!  #halloweencostumez #sfxmakeup #zombie #scary #TWD #brains #bookofcircus #gore #wound #eye #halloweenmakeupideas #blownupeye #tornouteye #specialeffectsmakeup #blood

@catiesfx “Cut with glass… I used scar wax, alcohol activated paints, and several bloods to make the cut. I tried lots of techniques before figuring out that cutting and shrinking shrinky dinks creates pretty realistic glass.” Submit your photo for a shout out, check out the link in my profile!  #halloweencostumez #specialeffects #specialfx #makeup #sfx #spfx #sfxmakeup #horror #gore #blood #halloween #halloweenmakeup #makeupartist #mua #motd #faceoff #makeup #fake #skinillustrator #mehron #mehronmakeup #bennye #mehronlove #cms #cinemamakeupschool #latex #makeupwhore #makeupjunkie #makeupaddict #muashootingstar #thehorrorgallery
