Zombie Boy covers his tattoos with DermaBlend

DermaBlend, a cosmetic concealer typically used to mask the appearance of scars, birthmarks, dark eye circles and other blemishes, has come up with a powerful way to demonstrate its benefit.

DermaBlend's new advertising features the uber-tattooed Rick Genest, a.k.a. Zombie Boy and BFF of Lady Gaga.

As makeup artists work on Zombie Boy, the ad demonstrates how well DermaBlend can be used to conceal even the most extensive tattoos.

The results are pretty amazing.

Then, Zombie Boy shows the efficacy of DermaBlend's makeup remover by using it to get back to his, er, normal self.

Brand Name Tattoos and the Characters Who Wear Them

Wall Street Fighter posted a list of the World's Stupidest Tattoos.

Among the honorees was this woman who sold the space on her forehead for $10,000.

She claimed to have done it to fund her child's education.

.

Then there was the genius who burned the name of a cheap beer into his shoulder.

I'm assuming it was a he. Women don't usually...Oh. I see your point.

Brand Name Tattoos: To each his own.

After reading on B.Y.O.B. about Tanya Paulin and her Anderson Cooper tattoo (above), I couldn't help but wonder about the popularity of tattoos of brand name images and logos.

I couldn't find any real data (I must admit, I wasn't exactly consumed with interest so the search wasn't a particularly long one), but I did learn that the Harley Davidson logo is likely the most popular brand name tattoo with sports logo tattoos a fairly close second.

On MSNBC, I found this tattooed Ralph Lauren Polo fan. I can't help but wonder how many trips to the keg preceded his trip to the tattoo parlor.
