For a quick and dirty rotting flesh effect I've used plain liquid latex and brushed it on my cheeks, nose and forehead. You can do multiple layers of it--wait for it to dry between coats. It drys relatively clear.
JUST BEFORE the last coat is dry, start touching it in random spots fairly lightly with your fingertip making little pockmarks and rips in it. Nice hanging flesh effect.
Then when it's completely dry again use make up over it to make it look like dead flesh. Colors are grey, blue and green for hanging flesh areas and "non-rotten" areas. Colors for pockmarks are: dark red/maroon, purple and greenish brown (putrid).
You can also try elmers glue if there's no liquid latex to be had. Same thing, just don't let the final coat dry completely before creating the pockmars and hanging flesh.
BEWARE -- if you are a guy and you have just shaved liquid latex burns like hell. It will make your zombie character more believable because you'll be so pissed off.
