Think about mermaids for a moment. Are you picturing a shy-but-friendly woman/fish-hybrid right out of Splash or The Little Mermaid?wholesale halloween costumes Or maybe even that string of direct-to-video movies starring Barbie? (Which begs the question: can a doll truly star in a movie?) If so, youre not alone, because these mythical creatures are often portrayed as mysterious but ultimately good at heart. But this hasnt always been the case! For much of history, mermaids were seen as terrifying creatures, having been blamed for luring sailors to their watery deaths or the disappearance of entire ships! Now if thats the type of scary mermaid youd like to dress as for Halloween or Cosplay, keep reading to see how we did it!

Depending on your skill level and what youre going for, you may not need all of it. Well go in-depth in the tutorial below.Scary Mermaid Makeup TutorialMakeup Tips:We went with a two-step process involving prosthetics and makeup.

For most of the fake wounds, we found that mixing and matching prosthetic bullet wounds, vampire bites, cut throats, and zombie rot, gave us a realistic and scary foundation. Our gills were made by cutting the edges of prosthetics and layering them, though the 3-D Gel in our zombie makeup kit can give a similar effect. The skin makeup is mostly green and yellow blended tones for the foundation, with patches of bruising and blood. To pull off a great fake bruise,wholesale christmas costumes start with a dab of purple makeup and spread it around in a rough two-inch circle, then blend brown and yellow over that.For fresher fake wounds, apply red makeup (and maybe a little purple) with a heavily-textured sponge or cloth so that the texture prints on the skin. Be careful not to smudge the texture.Wardrobe Tips:The clothes were the top from our Pirate Noir Costumeremember to remove the lace and strapsand the bottom from our High Society Dress. If youll be walking around, flare out the sides of the dress with a coat hanger or some other stiff but bendable material. (Please be careful. And consider getting that tetanus booster, mkay?) The glove was actually a single Black Fence Net Pantyhose legging, with some selective holes cut into the netting. We completed the picture with Chain Link Rope.Tips on Incorporating an Injury:As you can tell, our model had a cast for the photoshoot. Some costumes allow you to cover an injury with flowing sleeves or a robe. Others might be inflatable or feature a shield. You could also design a costume around an injury, like being accident prone. We decided to leave the cast as-is, because, well, shes a scary mermaid thats covered with injuries.Did you like our Scary Mermaid?
