The Tinfoil Gruesome Cut Hack
This technique uses regular aluminium foil to create the three-dimensional, raised edges of a gruesome cut or slice, which is the hardest part to replicate with just makeup.
What You Need:
Aluminium Foil (Tinfoil): A small square (about 4x4 inches).
Spirit Gum or Eyelash Glue: A safe adhesive to apply the foil to your skin.
Foundation/Concealer: Your normal shade.
Dark Red/Black Eyeshadow or Face Paint: For the inside of the wound.
Fake Blood: The runnier, the better! (You can use dark red lip gloss in a pinch).
