18:51 - Extra kit recommendations (not vital)
23:20 - Bare Bones Minimum- 11 things already discussed you can do a TON with if you can't buy a lot to start with
The items mentioned between the lines ^ are what I recommend having, to cover all your basics as an aspiring or professional MUA (makeup artist). If you are not an MUA but just enjoy FX as a hobby, you can use the Bare Bones Minimum section as a guide for the set of tools and products which will give you the most options for the smallest amount of money. If you're already a working MUA and think you have all your bases covered but want a few extra recommendations, that's what the extras section is for. Mentioned in the video but I think it bears repeating, my list of recommendations is based on my opinions and my experiences as a working professional MUA prior to beginning youtube. My experience was very set-heavy, but if you do FX work in other venues besides sets, you may find other products are more preferable. There is no one correct list for what to have in an FX starter kit, so if you think something was missing on my list, feel free to use your own discretion! It's all about finding what works for you, and I just hope this video will serve as a guide as well as answer some questions about what products do, what they cost, what to look out for and where to find them.
Speaking of which- anytime I say you can find something 'online', it means that I did not have a specific site in mind and my google is as good as yours. If you're unsure where to find something online, just type in the product name on google, and if you're getting a lot of irrelevant results type in 'fx makeup' after the product name- that usually helps for more multipurpose items like the plastic syringes or mold trays. I hope the general prices I wrote in serve as a guide so you know that what you're finding online is within a reasonable price range, as a lot of online websites like to overcharge like crazy.
I get most of my FX makeup from pro stores in LA- Nigel Beauty Emporium, Naimie's and Frends. I realize most cities, let alone suburbs, don't have stores similar to these, which is why online is your best resource for most of these things. Many seasonal chain Halloween stores usually carry pretty crappy makeup that is overpriced for the quality, even if it appears cheap. So unless you need something in a rush, I wouldn't recommend buying from them. All year round halloween/costumes stores usually carry nicer items, if you have any nearby. Luckily, if all else fails- all three stores I shop from in LA have websites with most of their products available for shipping. I'm not sure if they ship internationally. Google their names for their sites!
If you have any questions about the products in this video, please don't hesitate to ask in the comments. I will do my best to answer many of them.
Lastly, sorry this was a longer less peppy video than usual, but I didn't want to waste anyone's time with silliness in an already long video that had a lot of important information to get through. :) I figure most people are coming to this video because they really need to get the info and move on so I tried to keep it all on track, as such. Thanks for being patient and we'll be back to usual next week!

Imagine if Mykie came out with MUA kits for her merch store, and had both Glam or Gore or Glam and gore. Then had options of like beginner or more advanced, small or large, cheap or pricy, etc. That would be amazing especially for aspiring MUAs.

Haha same

My thoughts exactly when clicking this. Always need more Mykie.
You have no idea how helpful this video was for me, especially because it saved me a lot of time and money trying to figure out which products were more essential, thank you for the awesome video!
Ahhh, good! Mission accomplished! Thanks so much for watching!
which kind of latex do you use, balloon latex, slip mask latex, etc...
+Glam&Gore OMG you are the best ♥
+Just another band geek liquid latex
Go for balloon!
"Gelatin is good for burns" just smack it on your face immediately out of the microwave and you'll have a super realistic burn!!!!
lol jk don't do that ya silly
Mossears133 Oh my haha. You may have to wait for it to set though, that can take 1-2 day(s) and it might even blister!
i would
Could you do a tutorial one day using just the items in the Bare Bones Minimum kit? Just to show us the possibilities of what could be created with those materials alone ? This was an amazing and incredibly helpful video, thank you for putting so much effort into it Mykie ❤❤
Katie McCreedy She did it a lot of times. Ripped cheeks, hanging eye, infected, Lana Del Rey zombies and zombie mouth for example.

you're gonna regret that glitter oml 😂😂 I LOVE YOU MYKIE
"Gonna", future tense?! Girl, I've already found that glitter across my apartment in my kitchen sink somehow... on Ripley... and INSIDE my sock. The regret is full on past, present and future tense.
(Also, love you! :D)
+Glam&Gore I spilled glitter on my lap around 2 years ago and I still find red glitter all around my house
+Glam&Gore Love you too Mikey :D
+Glam&Gore i literally screamed and ran to my mom when i saw you replied, i love you so much!! i can't stop smiling :D ❤❤❤❤❤
Something Strange I would too.
Mykie, we're gonna have another green glitter situation going on, blue style this time. Tut tut, will you ever learn? 😬
*glitter herpes*
I've never done SFX before and just recently started toying with the idea to start. I have to say your video is THE MOST ENJOYABLE one I've watched on the subject! Your sense of humor is awesome, and I will def be following your vids from now on! Thank you!
I soooooo hate Scar wax. Good to are someone who feels same
Yeah my mom just bought me a $5 Halloween face paint kit, so basically my kit consists of:
-Random eye shadows I have
-Halloween Facepaint
-Model Magic
-like 4 brushes
My kit contains
Liquid latex ,
Scab blood ,
Some eyeshadow palettes from LA colors $1.50 each ( very pigmented can be found at your local Dollar general ) ( can also be used for bruises , dirt , to look tired )
6 make up brushes
Broadway powder cheek pallet in spring ( comes with 3 blushes , and one highlighter )
Wet n wild contour pallet
Quite a few lipsticks
A cheap non shimmery bronzer I use for a
( dirt affect )
Concealer of course
Also just things I've collected from little Halloween makeup kits that my family buy and don't use all the stuff so I gather it before they just throw it away
Mine is
Liquid latex
Scab blood
Skin illustrator zombie palate
Scar wax
(I have more random stuff)
I once won a halloween contest using only
Glam makeup
Cheap halloween facepaint
Glue
Tissue paper
Baby powder
It doesn't matter what you have, if you do it right, it looks just as good as if you used proffesional material
do you know if eyeshadow can go as good as cream makeup on the face?
My kit:
No brushes
Random blood from party city
Cheap Latex
Eyeshadows
Foundation
Palette
I am a 13 year old girl and I am IN LOVE with FX makeup. I want to be a makeup artist specifying in FX and this video was so helpful in getting me started and adding stuff on. Thanks Myke you're the best.
Side note: if I watch any other UA-camr doing fx makeup, I feel like I'm betraying Myke 😂😂
Kawaii_Entity girl same but I’m 11
I'm a 14-year-old boy and I also would like to be able to do fx make up since Halloween is my favorite holiday and autumn is my fav season which is weird because I was born right after Christmas
It's mykie 😫 not myke
So your 15 now
.... Crazy
I’m 11 going in 12 and Same
Can you please plan my funeral? This was so organized. Tutorials like these that have every single little detail you need to know in them are so satisfying.😍
i don't even do FX and i still watched the whole video. she could post a 10 minute video of her dog farting and i'd watching
watch it*
Hehehe is that tyler?¿
+lovelylaurel:) yes (:
SMOL BEAN

The second she threw the glitter on the screen I started scolding my iPad, and my family walked into my room thinking I was CRAZY. Thanks Mykie, it's not just Glitter-Herpies you're spreading.
I dare you to do an fx makeup look with ONLY glam makeup!!!
Ps I love you so much!!! Your such an inspiration and literally life goals! Stay fabulous!
watch her nyx paranormal activity video!
alex apricot i mean no gelatin, prosade adhesive or anything.
just lipsticks foundations eyeliners eyeshadow.....
I've tried to do that before. I'm a special effects MUA and wanted to see how difficult it would be. very very very difficult. wouldn't recommend it
now i really wanna see what shed do! +Glam&Gore
I just watched all of this and screenshotted about 98.5% of it
Shannon McA saaaaammmmmeeeee
Shannon McA Same tho
That's when you know a video is good
SAME
You have no idea how grateful I am to actually have a video as educational and helpful as this! I'm super interested in Sfx makeup, but I didnt even know where to begin! You're actually a goddess omg
Thanks so much for putting this content together! As an educator in prehospital care and tactical medicine, this has helped me figure out exactly what I need in my moulage kit. Now, to figure out how to use it...
My friends dad is allergic to latex. That's why she's alive 😂💙
😂😂that was clever asf
clever very clever
I DON'T GET IT
+Claudia Jose condoms are made of latex
+Bri Cardinal ohhhh hahahhahaha
I'm not getting into FX makeup professionally but I'm using some FX stuff for my and my boyfriend's Halloween costume this year! Super helpful info! Thanks!
i literally put this video on to fall asleep, your voice is so soothing to me xx
You're by far my favorite sfx artist and your tutorials are so easy to follow. If you could do more "basic" gore videos, I'd watch and learn so much from them. I did the burn tutorial and got so much good feedback from my finished look. My first time trying something that big too. Anyways, love your videos!
I felt heart pains when she spilled that blue glitter and I'm not even joking
and thank you this helped me a lot!!! so worth all that editing
+Maria Yssabel Magsino I find it really satisfying tbh
You are so inspiring, Mykie! I love your work and dedication 💕
Mykie, you're a huge reason why I started doing sfx. Definitely one of my many passions! Thank you for everything you've taught me. You're awesome. Keep up the great videos!
Can I just say bless your fucking heart for including latex-free products? I adore doing costume & FX makeup, but trying anything but wax and the old "Vaseline and toilet paper set with hairspray" shit that you see on hack lists because of a deathly latex allergy. But you opened me up to a shit ton of new options and I am living for it.
You were one of the first people who got me into FX makeup ☺️ I even started drawing again because of it so thank you Mykie ❤️
Thank you for sharing your experience and not guarding it like a national secret. 😘😘
Of course! Like I said, Dick Smith was the man and he was all about sharing what he knew! Anything I can do to pass that on, I wanna!
does anyone else adore how great she explains things and how well spoken she is? i dont have an interest in starting sfx kit but i watched this whole video because she makes it so interesting!
I love Mykie's channel because it is basically Halloween like...all year. And October is my favorite month. Plus, the stuff she does is amazing so, what's not to like? I like both the Glam and the Gore. Perfection!
true af
OH GOD NO..NO..WHY?! ALL THAT BLUE GLITTER. MYKIE, YOU'RE MAKING THE GLITTER HERPES WORSE.
And Mykie is such a bomb person/ youtuber. I love that she makes videos helping people out. Scratch that, she's a bomb person in general.
+Fake Bish same plus it never hurts that's she's an adorable badass lol
Awkward turtle holo herpes are the best
Brooke & Bridgette H📀L💿
Hey lady, just thought I'd let you know I'm a complete noob and will probably rely on most of your videos to teach myself how to learn FX Makeup if only for myself for a little bit. Thanks for the comprohensive list on essentials.
Thank youuuuu! Been wanting a starter video like this for a while :)
All of your guides are so detailed and organised, they are such an informative experience. Thank you so much, it made starting a lot of things much easier
This was SO incredibly helpful +Glam&Gore! We're looking at a new character we need some prosthetics and special makeup for, and my team just binge watched your channel for hours!
NOTIFICATION SQUAD WHERE YOU AT 💕
OVER HERE
here ✋
right here fam
Lol the beginning! Love it!
This is amazing, so helpful! 🙌🏽
This was so helpful, thank you. I love doing FX looks but I don't exactly wear them anywhere, and I'm not sure if I want to go in to that career or no. So this was a huge help!
I've always been interested in sfx makeup but it seemed so hard that I never dared to try it but watching your tutorials made me realize that it might be easier than I though... I feel so inspired by you and I want to try to do some things myself... I'm excited to see how it turns out!! Thank you so much for being such an inspiration
Thank you so much !!! I have been looking for a video like this for ages❤️❤️
Mykie I don't think I can thank you enough for making this. I've always been interested in SFX but we've (m'family) never really had enough money to get stuff that would normally be in a kit. This is very helpful and I know it took you forever to make (snapchat squad waddup). I really love your videos and as cheesy as it sounds, you inspire me fam. I love yooooouuu. Oh and Ripley. What a qt.
the effort you put into your videos are inspiring. Much love from the UK💖
This is one of the most helpful videos ever for SFX makeup. Thank you for taking the time to make this!
I'VE BEEN WAITIN FOR THIS MY WHOLE LIFE
So helpful Mykie ❤️ so much love and appreciation for you and how much effort you put into videos and tutorials
Thank you, Megan! :D
I really what to do this as a dream job and I thought it would be best to start now then later to see if I actually enjoy it. And this video helped so much. Thanks xx🙃
THANK YOU I've wanted to do sfx for so long and never knew what to get to get started this means so much, I love you mykie. You're my inspiration 💟
I've been waiting for this video forever! Thank you so much, all my questions have been answered now 😊
love how helpful this is and I love the classic music choice
Hahah :) Thank ya!
Glam&Gore np will there be another glam and gore disney princess video? Or are you taking requests for them?
You should do a look using the more expensive/luxury items & replicate it using the bare minimum items, to show you can create amazing looks if you know what you're doing, practice, and have faith. Love you Mykie ❤️❤️
So happy I watched this today. I needed those clips of Ripley so cute!!!
I watched all of it, because you are a beautiful human and spent forever on this 💗
Imma gonna need to watch this about 4 more times.... and take notes....
THANK YOU SOOOOO MUCH, I ASPIRE TO BE THE BEST FX ARTIST I CAN BE THANKS TO YOU. YOU'RE WONDERFUL.
You're so wonderful Mykie! Thank you for all the hard work and research that went into this!
I appreciate this list sooo much!
Thank you for taking the time to film this!
IM DYING YOU PUT WALTZ OF THE FLOWERS FROM THE NUTCRACKER IN THE BACKGROUND
Just for clarification purposes, is the doge required?
10/10 doge is required 😂
Yes, a doge is the best assistant. You can find them in shelters, in dog parks, hiding behind couches during thunderstorms, and in any corners where there's weird lint balls for them to eat. Watch out for their doge hair, because it'll get stuck in a lot of your FX materials... unless you're going for a beastly kinda look. Doges cost approximately 82,994 doge bones (don't know the US conversion, sorry) and my favorite brand of doge is all of them.
420/10 doge required
Thank you so much for making this!! I've gotten more into SFX because of your videos
this is incredible! thank you so much for a basic starter kit.
It might be worth noting that vegetarians may choose not to use FX gelatin since it's made from various animal parts , in which case they should use 3rd degree instead. Idk that's probably stating the obvious though
If you're vegetarian you could use agar agar i haven't seen it been used in special effects or tried it myself but it is very similar to gelatin and is made from a plant.
Or find halal gelatin it just means it doesn't use the animal bones
Thank you ! I’m a vegetarian so I can’t use that
Isn’t vegetarianism a diet? Or is it a lifestyle aswell. Because that sounds like a veganism lifestyle choice
athena atkinson from my understanding, vegetarian is not eating meat, but one might still consume animal products (milk, cheese, eggs), vegan is not consuming any animal products at all
One day I will change your mind ;)
I just don't think it can be done but I'd love to be wrong about that! Bring it, scar wax King!
Powdah FX I
Thank you!!! Being in acting in college I have always wanted to start doing fx makeup so I will definitely be using list! Thank you thank you thank you

Who's here for Halloween 2019?
marley me omg i want to do some sfx makeup for halloween but i’m going to fail :(
Maria Salas put blood on it lol blood always make it better ❤️
Trust me 2020 Halloween is going be worse ..
i'm just here, rewatching every Glam&Gore video ever
with so much work to do at home i need mykie's voice as motivation
Mykie!! I'm so happy I found you because you're the reason I decided to go into a makeup career! I've always loved makeup and then I found you and loved fx makeup even more☺️ I start makeup school in late October and I'm very excited and I love you, thank you so much!!
WAAAAAAAAAAAAIT MYKIE DO YOU USE NIGELS SLUSH LATEX OR BALLOON LATEX????
ALSO THANK YOU FOR MAKING THIS VIDEO IT IS RIDICULOUSLY HELPFUL AND I REALLY APPRECIATE HOW HARD YOU WORKED ON THIS
Mine just says latex as you can see but go with balloon. :)
Also, thank you!
+Glam&Gore I'm becoming a chef and a make up artist on the side so I'll be going into make up first so no thank you Mykie for making this babe!!!
Glam&Gore Okay, thank you! Love you so so so so much!
I really want to be a special Fx artist but I don't have the right equipment to practice with at the moment I'm just using tissues and glue which is turning out great but doesn't give the most realistic look of course so this video was great to me the only problem is I live in England and struggle to get most of the specific pieces of equipment without paying tons of money I also have no clue as to how to get into this line of work as my teacher has only recommended fine art to me as a GCSE if anyone has any helping tips I would love for you to reply to this. comment with them thx 😋
I'd recommend taking media as well if that's an option and then following it onto a level. It would be a good idea to start looking at universities/beauty schools to see what subjects they require :)
Hi, I did art at GCSE. Went to 6th form, wasn't for me so went to college to study level 3 theatrical makeup. When the course is complete the qualification gained will be equivalent to 3 a levels giving me the option to go to university if I desire. I found doing art helpful as I'm not being taught how to do life drawings or sketches at college and one of the universities I'm looking at requires that so by doing art at GCSE has helped me to be able to do these sketches In my own time. Hope this helps x
I watched this yesterday and mainly listened to it. But today I wanted to read all your captions and man it was worth it XD
Thank you so much. This helps me so much with everything ❤️❤️

YAASSS BEEN WAITING FOR THIS FOR SO LONG TYSM
Thank you! I work at a costume shop and we expanded our makeup section so this really helped me get a better understanding for these products. Plus I just love your videos!
my teacher laughed at me for saying I want to be an FX makeup artist 😭😫
Don't give up!
Gina Kameron thanks
She's an idiot !
What I would do is figure out what they're afraid of. Then, when Halloween rolls around, make a look surrounding their fear and come to school and scare their soul right out of their body. Then, they'll see just how good you really are 😇
+AJ Palu haha I will do that I know where she lives #notcreepy
pleaseeeee do a glam and gore Harley Quinn ❤️
I'm so grateful for this list, THANK YOU SO MUCH MYKIE.
Thank you so much for making this Video !! Love you so much !!
all the nutcracker music got me shook
