Used by metalheads to indicate the facial makeup nu-metalheads do, which they usually try to pass off as corpsepaint. Synonym of "shitpaint".
Nu-metal kid with a Slipknot tee on: Check out my corpsepaint!

Blackster: That's clownpaint, idiot.

Thrasher: What a poser.

Nu-metal kid: You fucking elitists, stop gatekeeping!

Crüehead: I'm with them this time.
