YAY! Welcome back to another #BEAUTYMONDAY, Halloween edition. 🙂 I enlisted my husband this time to help me with my zombie Halloween makeup tutorial today as I have an unfortunate allergy to latex (ironic because it is one of the best mediums to use in special effects makeup). He’s pretty funny so I hope he makes you laugh during this video as much as I did! LOL. So, in the spirit of Halloween, let’s jump right into this. 🙂

When I was a freshman in college (about a million years ago), I entered a Zombie Makeup Contest on campus:
My cousin Sam & I took 1st and 2nd place at the costume contest and from then on, I was hooked. I love Zombie Halloween Makeup! 2 years in a row, I also worked at haunted houses and freelanced Halloween makeup. Basically, this is my favorite time of year. Zombies EVERYWHERE!
I hope this tutorial helped you and that you learned something new today 🙂 If you liked it and want to see more, please let me know! I would love to tailor my tutorials to fit your desires this Halloween!
What are you going to be for Halloween? Let me know in the comments below!
Until Wednesday, my dear friends!! 🙂
These are all awesome makeup ideas for Halloween. That you for sharing the tutorial.
Great job! Love this! Y’all are too cute!
Liked the tutorial. Being a zombie it’s a real fun! This year I’m probably going to be for Halloween a Three Hole Punch Michael 😀
No way this is uber cool! I am so so impressed! I love you used him as your model, I may need to try this out 😀
The Blonde B
Let me know how it goes!
sucks that you are allergic to latex but that’s totally awesome your husband was up to the challenge. I am allergic to most special affects make up so I’m usually the human running away in contests and parades!!
This looks amazing!!! Face paint always made my face itchy when I was younger but I’d be willing to try it again for the zombie look 🙂
What a good sport and thanks for the tutorial – that is really helpful for me to see it done!
I love this. It looks really great. I love Halloween!
That’s so awesome! My friend is going as a zombie pirate this year for Halloween so I’ll have to show her this.
Awesome job! So sweet of your husband to let you do this look on him! I need to convince my hubs now! haha 😉
Wickedly cool makeup. I do love Halloween.
Cool. I love the zombies in scrubs.
Great job! Loving the details on the forehead wound.
That is awesome! Make up is definitely an art!
Loved this tutorial. It’s crazy to think Halloween is coming up so quickly.
I have a friend who is doing this for Halloween, I’ll pass it along! I would love to but I think it would scare my kids! I don’t know what I’m going as. My kids will be The Flash and a werewolf, and my dog is going to be a lion!
Oh that is an awesome make up tutorial! Great job!
How fun! I’m going as Alice in Wonderland this year which is super easy makeup in comparison!
Oh how cute!!!
Love this!!! Love Halloween and doing fun makeup is the best part!
❤️, Mindy

Zombies are so “in” these days, you can never go wrong with picking it as your costume. I love how realistic the make-up is, it’s amazing! I wish I could pull it off without hassle!
When I started college I majored in Theater Arts (I changed it later, but that will always be my first love) and one of my classes was stage makeup. I LOVED doing makeup like this! I even volunteered to help with the makeup of a student film, SO fun!
I like the bite mark on the head! Sucks about the latex allergy though!
Shame about the allergy but the Halloween makeup still looks fab. I love Halloween too and seeing everyone made up!
It is so fun!
Cool Great video and he was such a sport! I love Halloween and diy!
I think we’ll see a ton of zombies this Halloween. They are so popular. I love the look of the makeup and it seems so easy! You can pair it with any costume too.
Wow this looks so real! You did great!
This is SO EPIC, Taylor! You make me actually want to attempt Halloween this year…haha!
Coming Up Roses
I hope you do! My husband and I always go obnoxiously all out…we have had movie posters made of each of our couple costumes every year we have been together! LOL.
So I am not a zombie fan, and this is why! Too scary! Your make up looks like the real deal. I’m not so sure I am a fan of Halloween… 🙂
Love this!!! That’s awesome that your husband was such a great sport about you doing his make up! It came out really good!!!
Your husband was a great sport! I don’t know if I could get my husband to sit for Zombie makeup!
How cool is this?! I have an almost 6 year old boy and I’m sure I’ll be using this video to help him put on scary makeup in no time!
YAY! Can’t wait to see christina!
This is a great tutorial! My hubby is going to his first ever Halloween party so I will show him this for an ideal costume 😉
Great! I would love to see pictures!
Looks great – every time I try to get fancy with makeup it just turns in to puddles!
This is so spooky! You get me scared lol! Great tutorial and amazinng ideas!
These is awesome! I totally wish I could pull something like this off. My boyfriend and I are still debating about what we should be. He isn’t all that into Halloween.
Ahh! My husband and I are crazy into halloween. We probably get TOO into it!
Wow! So awesome… I may have to play around with this some… I’m ALWAYS a cowgirl, but maybe this year I should try zombie. LOL!
You did an amazing job with this. I am extremely impressed. I hope my hubby will let me try this out on him, if he does, I will send you pics, LOL.
YAY! I cannot wait to see LOL
That first picture freaked me out! Zombies are so scary and Halloween makeup gets to realistic! Awesome post!

This is so scary looking! I bet zombie makeup is a lot of fun to do. Love you and cousin’s costumes at Halloween.
Wonderful tutorial!! You did such a great job and your husband was such a good model!! You made a great looking zombie yourself!
Gotta love those fab, supportive husbands! He looks so handsome in a ghoolish way! haha… Not sure what I’m being yet for Halloween… gotta get on that! What do you think I should be?
Hmmm….You could be going to a masquerade or dress up as a group with your favorite girl bosses. I am rounding up my favorite halloween costumes next week!!!
Love the zombie in scrubs look! My husband would have done this for me too.
This Zombie makeup is awesome and I am definitely going to try this out this Haloween! Thanks for sharing the DIY with us!
This makeup was done so well! What a cool zombie costume. You pulled it off super well. I did something like this in theatre in high school. It was so fun.
Great tutorial and I love the video! My hubby would never let me do this so yours is so nice! Love that this seems pretty simple to pull off!
Great tutorial, plus it’s kind of perfect for everything at Halloween, especially if you don’t want to dress up too much. I went as a zombie netball player once!
Wickedly cool. i do love Halloween adn all the awesome costumes.
I’ve always skipped over the makeup part of my costume because I wasn’t good at it! I love what you came up with here!
Wow well isn’t that disgusting?! HA! Scrolling down I truly thought that was a picture of an injured person. What a great job! You had me fooled!
This is awesome! I love The Walking Dead so this is right up my alley. It looks easy enough to try this Halloween.
This is amazing Taylor!!! You are so good!

Thanks SO much Rachel 🙂
It always amazes me how much you could do with makeup without being a professional!
Thanks Tayler!
That would be fun for my teens! Actually, they’re looking for Halloween makeup tutorials ideas. I’ll share this with them.
Amazing how you can do this zombie makeup. I always into fairies and mermaids during Halloween, hahaha. BUt this is cool, then you host a zombie run!
Thank you! Zombie runs are so cool!
I don’t dress up for Halloween, but I do love seeing all the creative costumes. This idea has me longing for the start of the new season of The Walking Dead.
I will be honest I never did a gory halloween makeup and probably wont because I always try to be cute for Halloween. But this will work for many since there are millions of Walking Dead Fans out there!
WOW amazing job on that makeup! This sounds like such a fun side gig! I’m the worst at coming up with Halloween costume ideas… maybe I’ll give this a try this year.
Very cool. I would say even realistic. Oh how zombies have made a comeback.
This looks so fun! Thank you for the awesome tutorial and the idea!
I can’t lie this looks so real lol You did such a good job.
So gross! But I guess that’s what you were going for!
This is how I like to dress up. Regular clothes but some fun zombie makeup. You have a real talent, thanks for sharing how to do it.
Thanks so much Carolyn!
Ahh it looks so real! I love it! We’ve been completely obsessed with The Walking Dead this year and I bet I could convince my husband to dress up like this for Halloween!
So awesome right?!
I’m sharing this with my RunDisney friends. I know so many that are dressing up as Princess zombies for Halloween. So much fun!
Thank you so much!
This is only makeup?! It looks SO real, you did a great job. The video is very helpful for those wanting to try this at home.
Thanks Jena!
This looks awesome! Way too scary for my littles right now, but something I will have to keep in mind for the future 🙂
This is awesome!!! I am loving these makeup tutorials! I’ve never done zombie before, but my husband went as Mayhem from the All State commercials one year and let me do his makeup for that. It was pretty hilarious. Sidebar: You two are the cutest couple, like, ever!
Oh my gosh thank you so much Jessica!!!
I needed this! If I could just pull this awesome make-up off I won’t have to buy an entire costume.
RIGHT!? Exactly!
I also have a latex allergy so this is not something I’d be able to do 🙁 Such a bummer because I love how this turned out!
Great job! This would be perfect for teenagers and preteens. It really turned out great.
This looks so incredibly real! You did a great job.
Thank you so much!!!
This is so cool. You’ve done an amazing job. Making me want to try some Halloween looks for this year.
Oh gosh! I can’t do scary Halloween stuff. I’m a wuss. This year, my fellow 4th grade teachers and I are dressing up as different emojis! (Much more my style, haha). Comfortable and I can stand looking at myself in the mirror without getting scared!
This is such a fun tutorial. My husband would definitely love to do something like this for Halloween.
Latex allergy? That is no fun at all. I think I am still in denial that it’s October because I haven’t thought about Halloween and I am not ready to deal with leave decor. I need to get on it.
My daughter is really big into getting made up like this for Halloween. She would really appreciate this tutorial.
I love doing makeup! My fighter is my Guinea pig so she will probably be a zombie tomorrow!!! Good job!!!
Not my fighter…I meant to say my daughter! Lol
What a great tutorial! I love seeing fun makeup like this. I need a good idea for Halloween this year but it has to be less scary for my three year old. Very cool and I am pinning for future years!
What a great tutorial! I wish we were doing something for Halloween that involved dressing up.
This looks like a great idea! I love the tutorial, I think my son might do one of the looks above, thanks for sharing!!
Oh my goodness! I’m impressed by how realistic the make up looks. This would freak me out though. I’m easily spooked
Wow, this zombie makeup looks very realistic. Dressing up and experimenting with makeup for Halloween is a lot of fun for kids and adults alike.
Love these tips and makeup tricks. Makes the zombie makeup look so easy to do. Thank you for sharing! 🙂
Your makeup is so awesomely creepy! Really good…very scary! I would totally get scared if you guys knocked on my door on Halloween! Great job!
Omg how awesome is this tutorial?!?! This would be so awesome to rock to a Halloween party. I will have to show hubby!!!
You are so talented. I tried doing zombie makeup a few years ago. It looked like a clown! This is great. Maybe I’ll try again.
