What this video covers
Madeyewlook's Alexys Fleming walks through a special effects makeup look that simulates shattered glass embedded in the face, complete with realistic wounds and blood. The tutorial uses Mehron SFX products including Extra Flesh and Fixative A to build convincing lacerated skin around actual decorative glass pieces. Fake coagulated blood and red body paint add gory depth and realism to the finished look. The result is a striking, gore-forward Halloween costume makeup effect.
Key takeaways
- ◆Mehron SFX kit products (Extra Flesh, Fixative A, Coagulated Blood Gel) are central to building the wound illusion
- ◆Decorative shattered glass available at hardware stores creates the focal prop element
- ◆Paradise AQ in red and Tooth FX blood red add layered color realism
