Answer 1

Go find some theatrical makeup. If that is not possible then go to Walmart or another store that carries inexpensive makeup. You will be making your own bruises so buy make up that is for dark skin and stock up on black, dark purple, dark rose, as red a shadow as you can find, lipstick can work too, sometimes. You can grey the skin with eyeshadow. Use a white foundation in very llight for highlighting, with a white or shimmer shadow in beige. For bloody looking bruises that look freshly slapped use the dark red with the purple and a touch of black. Some of this you'll want to use a brush and some a sponge. Blend blend blend....don't forget to irritate the affected eye safely for the red watery effect, or your pictures won't seem real. Good luck and let us know how it goes. Nana

Answer 2

It's called Moulage. Used to do it when I was in college for local EMS systems to get their "patients" ready for emergency drills.

If you need help with it, call your local funeral home. I'll guarantee they can help. Otherwise, you can Google "moulage" and find the techniques explained in great detail and with pictures.
