How to Apply Zombie Makeup

For the most convincing zombie look, you need to make sure your eyes look gloomy. For this, you can use a black liner and apply a dark red eye shadow. You can also use red grease paint to create the sunken eye of a zombie. Make sure to line the bottom of the eye socket with black and blend it towards the eye. Then, use a light layer of black or blue on top of the red area.
