Need to look like a rotting, decaying zombie corpse for Halloween? Rather than bribing your special effects makeup artist friend to treat you one for the night, you can definitely DIY a couple of good Halloween makeup effects using common household items in your pantry or medicine cabinet.
You could grab some toilet paper and Elmer's Glue-All to papier-mâché your face into flaky, rotting grossness.

If you're probably never going to get around to that multi-colored biscuit recipe you've been meaning to try, then you might as well use those ingredients to whip yourself up some non-toxic, homemade face paint for your Frankenstein clown makeup.
