Zombie Boy was born Rick Genest but he doesn't call himself Zombie Boy for no reason. He's covered in tattoos from head to toe, including his face, which is made to look like a skull. This is exactly what makes him perfect to push body concealers.

As of late known worldwide for being one of the latest Thierry Mugler “muses” and for appearing in Lady Gaga's video for “Born This Way,” Zombie Boy is also a successful tattoo model.

He's now using his vast body art to promote a professional concealer for legs and body, as the video below will show.

The clip opens with Zombie Boy, aka Rico, sitting down on a chair in front of the camera. “How do you judge a book?” the viewer is being asked.

Those who don't know that the pale-faced bald young man is actually Rico see nothing out of the ordinary about him, except perhaps two facial piercings.

However, when he takes a pad and applies makeup remover on it and then dabs it on his chest, everything becomes clear: he's hiding something. Literally.

Next thing, Zombie Boy uses a towel on his face and reveals the intricate and extensive tattoos that are covering it.

The video ends with footage shows in reverse of his transformation from Zombie Boy to just A Boy – and it's truly something worth watching, to say the least.

It takes at least three makeup stylists and several bottles of the best kind of concealer to get the work done but the result is incredibly impressive.

“Light, full-coverage foundation covers tattoos, stretch marks, varicose veins, spider veins, bruises, scars and burns. Smudge-resistant formula leaves skin soft and smooth, and protects with SPF 15 sunscreen,” reads the description of the concealer used to hide Rico's tattoos on the official webpage of the product.

Dermablend Leg and Body Cover costs $27 (€19.5) to boy. Zombie Boy proves it's worth it.
