Go to my post on How to Make “Fauxtex” for the best recipe for this makeup. (The recipe in the video is an older recipe that doesn’t work as well as the new Fauxtex).
Try adding stuff to this makeup, such as toilet paper for a different texture, or peas stuck right into the makeup for a different kind of bulk. Experiment. Come back and show us your stuff.

See my new recipe for making FX makeup:



Hi, I was wondering how water resistant the Fautex is? I’m shooting a zombie scene, in a place where my zombies will get wet.
That’s a great question! I’ll have to run a series of “situational tests” on the fauxtex. All I can tell you right now (cuz I tried this yesterday) is that running a bit of cold water over the fauxtex will actually help the surface gel. I don’t know how long or how hard or what the temperature of the water is that you’ll be using, but I know you will be safe with a bit of cold water on the fx makeup.
Hope you have a blast!
