[Captions by Y Translator] Today, we're taking a look at how to make
some scars bruises and bleeding cuts with some DIY makeup.
Some of which is made from stuff you probably already have.
[Music]
Guys, we have Calli back here in the studio,
and she's going to be helping us out with something fun today.
Calli, what is it we're going to be doing?
>> Well.
I'm going to beat you up.
>> Aww.
>> Well, I'm gonna do it in a nice way.
We've got some DIY Halloween makeup styles that we're going
to be doing.
Bruises, blood, cuts, it's going to be interesting.
But with some household supplies that you can find
pretty darn easy,
all the way up to some things
that you might find at the local theater store
or even Walmart.
>> All right, so what are these supplies were looking at?
Some of these I think I recognize and some of them,
I also recognize,
but that's because I've done some theater makeup before.
So, just walk us through a little bit of what
we've got here on the table.
>> Flour, baby powder, Vaseline, pretty darn simple.
With these supplies, you can actually make a scar putty.
Now, I do have theatrical scar wax.
That is something that a lot of people will use in makeup
and theater, but you can make it
at home for a lot cheaper.
So, I'm going to show you how to do that.
Moving up to liquid latex.
Now, not all latex is made the same.
You're going to see the difference between
our Walmart latex and some theatrical supply makeup.
I'm going to show you how you can basically make
it look the same, work the same for you.
And then liquid collodion, which... it's probably more fun
to just show you what that does.
>> So, here's the plan, Calli is going to take some of our makeup supplies,
and she's going to start applying them to me,
and explaining how to do it, to make it look like I suffered
some grievous injury.
Like, maybe someone hit me in the face,
with a big old weapon.
>> The basic idea when you're doing makeup like this,
sometimes less is more.
You kind of want to focus on the bone structure
and you also want to focus on where the skin's really
going to split.
So if Nate were to get hit say right there,
he probably end up with a black eye,
some swelling around the eye,
and then a pretty good slice in his face.
So, let's see if we can make that look real.
So the first step is we're going to take some flour,
and we're going to take some Vaseline,
we're going to mix them together.
We're going to tone it, to attempt to match your skin.
And then we're going to add it on.
We'll probably add a little bit of spirit gum.
Also something that you can find at your local Walmart,
grocery store, Theatrical supply store,
so that it's going to stick a little bit better,
and then we're going to add some color and some blood.
>> Let's get this party started.
We don't actually need this much but,
just you can kind of see what I'm doing.
>> Vaseline petroleum jelly. >> Straight Vaseline, yup.
>> Normal [inaudible], brand doesn't matter but--
>> Really doesn't, I just got the regular brand,
just picked it up from Walmart.
I have experimented using baby powder as well,
works pretty darn good but the absorbency
is a little bit different,
so we're going to stick with the flour,
which is what a lot of people use,
and it's going to make the tinting a little bit easier
and a little bit more opaque,
which in this case is actually going to be a good thing when
we're applying color over it.
Usually you're going to want a little bit thinner,
but this should be fine.
So, what we're looking for is basically
a paste-like consistency, almost a Play-Doh.
It's actually going to be very similar
to when you Proto-putty.
>> This point, I would say that we have approximately
twice as much flour, as we do Vaseline by volume.
>> So if you touch it, does it stick to your skin?
Nope, not really.
Okay, good.
So right now, we've got pretty much,
the perfect consistency.
So that's what we're looking for.
So now, here's the fun part.
I had to make up match Nate.
>> So, if you go to the makeup store
because you want to make this,
you ask one of the nice people working there where you can find,
liquid foundation in your skin color.
And, they'll be very helpful, and they'll show you where to go.
>> In case you wondered what color Nate skin is,
it's basically primer white.
It's classic Ivory.
You're about as pale as you can possibly be.
>> That hurts my feelings a little bit, but it's very true.
This stuff is not like, super runny thin.
It's kind of like, ketchup consistency.
And that's also good.
>> And now I mix this up the same way, right?
>> Yes.
So, this consistency now, I would say, sugar cookie dough.
Yeah. That's a good description.
Don't eat it though.
Don't--
No, you eat most things, don't eat this.
>> Oh-- Mmm.
Mmm-mmm
Is it working?
I can feel it tingling on my gum.
They're so stale.
>> Put it down.
All right, so when it comes to doing the sort of makeup,
you don't have to break the bank.
That's why we're kind of doing this all DIY style.
So you'll actually recognize some of this stuff.
If you've ever been to a Halloween store
or even Walmart, these are just some really
simple grease paints.
And if you apply them right, you're going to get some pretty
darn cool colors.
So I'm sure that Nate skin is very clean,
but just in case to make sure that everything applies
properly, we're going to use some witch Hazel astringent.
It's just a little bit gentler than some others.
>> As an astringent, it means it's going
to strip oils off of my face,
and we don't want that long-term or forever,
but it makes it so that all of the makeup can stick
to my skin a lot better.
>> Once the skin is clean you want to add a layer
of spirit gum.
Now, this is going to help that putty stay
a little bit better, especially because it is
a DIY mixture that we've made.
>> Spirit gum is like, skin glue made
out of pine trees, I think.
As she's dabbing this on with her finger,
I can feel it as it dries out.
It starts getting stickier and sticker.
You can probably see how it was getting more and more stuck
to her finger as she lightly
tapped it in place.
>> So, what I'm looking for is a really really thin layer.
You can kind of see that we've got this really
shiny, tacky surface.
I want to work quickly before it dries too much.
But I also don't want it to be so thick
that it gets gummy.
If it gets too thick, it's going to start pulling
away from the skin, and then not only is your prosthetic
not going to stick,
but you could potentially hurt your... patient?
>> Victim?
>> Victim.
So, to apply this makeup, it's not going to be very difficult.
You don't really need anything very fancy.
I'm really just starting out with a cut popsicle stick.
Make sure the ends aren't sharp.
Again, we're really not trying to injure him,
just make it look like I injured him.
I really don't want to get in trouble for hurting Nate.
So I went for just more of a... angled spatula.
The idea is basically that we want to be able
to smooth down the edges,
make sure it looks pretty darn seamless between his skin,
and the prosthetic.
So, even with my spirit gum, the edges are starting
to pull up a little bit because that flour
is absorbing the Vaseline.
So, we're going to take a Q-tip
and we're going to add a little bit
more Vaseline just around the edges,
just to smooth things out.
Well, I think that's at least going to be a pretty
darn good arc for our cut, so let's add some bruising.
At this point, it just comes down to color theory.
We want to make sure that we can match Nate's skin
as closely as possible.
He's got a very pale skin, but a pink undertone.
[Music]
So here's the fun part, doesn't have to be expensive.
You don't have to use anything super crazy.
So this was $3 at Walmart, this was I think $2,
and that's really all you need.
So we're going to take, our $2 brushes, and let's start
with some black and purple.
Make sure that you also use some skin tones,
but really just mix and match
until you get what you want.
So this is basically just the same
as those little grease pencils.
It's just even softer.
So one of the important parts when you're working on this
again, just take your time, be patient,
and don't use one color.
When you use one of those colors on these really bright,
you know, color palettes, you saw that I was working
with a bright red and a bright purple.
But when you start blending them,
that's when you get it to look really realistic,
even with the really, really cheap makeup.
This palette is probably $7, so out of all of our makeup
today probably one of the more expensive ones.
But, it lasts me for years and I can use it for stuff
like this all the time.
I'm going to be honest, I've only ever done this
to myself once, usually I'm putting makeup
on other people.
What does that feel like?
>> It's barely noticeable, honestly.
Unless I start moving my face around,
then I can sort of feel it being tight in spots.
Like where the spirit gum and where the prosthetic putty,
is sort of like, resisting where
my skin would normally move--
>> But it's not uncomfortable?
>> No, not at all like, it's less of a feel.
Like, if I had just a bandaid on my face,
I think I would feel that more, than I feel this.
>> So when you're doing makeup like this,
you'll notice that I'm not putting nearly as much red on the prosthetic,
as I am around the eye.
When your skin swells up in an actual cut or injury,
you're going to have less blood to that area.
Now there is going to be blood in the wound of course,
but the redness is actually going
to be swelling around it, and not necessarily right
on top of the area.
[Music]
How you feeling, Nate?
>> I got beat up.
>> Yeah.
So, we've got a pretty good shiner.
We've got his face, pretty darn puffy.
You can still see the Vaseline, and the, flour coming through a little bit.
So what we're going to do now, is we're actually going to slice
his cheek open,
and add some blood.
You're going to see that it's just going
to pull that wax right off.
So, to keep it from doing that, we're going to add some Vaseline.
Hold still while I cut your face open.
[Music]
That cut's going really jagged, that's actually going to look kind of cool.
Now this, was just a happy accident.
When Nate smiles-- Nate, smile.
You get this little crinkle right here.
So I'm actually going to use that, into the split itself.
Just sort of, add on to the horror factor.
Now, all I'm going to do is... add in a little bit of reddening,
and then we're going to set it, because right now it's very shiny.
You can tell that there's Vaseline or something there.
So we're going to dull it down, make it match
the matte of Nate's skin, and then we're going, to finish
with adding some blood.
Are there other ways to do this?
Yes.
Is this more entertaining?
Also, yes.
>> That smells terrible.
>> There are lots of ways that you can actually
make homemade blood but because we've already
made our homemade putty,
we're going to go and use some from
the theatrical supply store.
You can also get this at Walmart and at any Halloween shop that
you want to find.
Make it look most realistic.
Let gravity do its work.
I'm barely tapping it in there,
and I'm going to let it just sort of fall, the way it naturally would.
Now, let's go out in public.
>> I got beat up by a girl.
>> All right.
Well, we've successfully, beat the crud out of Nate.
Sorry Nate, but I haven't
gotten to use the latex or the liquid collodion yet.
Hey Mark, come here.
[Music]
So, what you guys do at work today?
>> Messed up, pretty bad.
>> Got beat up by a girl.
Yup.
>> All right, you have successfully blackened my eye,
and bloodied up my face...
But at this time, we want to see how hard is it to take this off.
Like, if I were doing this for my Halloween makeup,
going to a party something like that.
I get done at the end of the night.
Is it going to take me forever to clean my face up?
>> No, that's kind of the best part
about this sort of makeup.
So, this is just Wish Hazel.
It's an astringent, wipe it right off.
>> Mmm.
>> Gross.
>> Just wiping off part of my skin here.
So I had that on, for probably two or maybe three hours,
and it was staying on just fine.
Like, it worked pretty well.
I think you could easily have that on
for an evening for a party, something like that.
>> But honestly, if you just take some makeup wipes to it,
it's not going to hurt your skin.
The worst thing is the spirit gum,
and that will come off in the shower,
if you really need it to.
So...
>> I think even most of that's gone.
