Is it possible to get goosebumps on your face?

Yes it is possible. I get goose bumps on my face very often, because I am a girl and have no hair on my face no hair raises. But my face gets a quick patch of bumps on my cheeks. I still haven't met anyone else who gets them! Yes, I get goosebumps on my face all the time. I get them when Im cold, and I know this is cheesy but my ex used to bite on my neck to give them to me on purpose. When I get the goosebumps it makes my face look like I have acne scars, on my cheeks then they just go away. Iam not hairy just normal peach fuzz, and I also have never met anyone else who gets them. I also get goosebumps on my face, and as the other person above says they do look like acne scars for the few seconds that they last :)

Can dead people get goosebumps?

The definition of death is: The ceasing of all function of life. After breathing, heartbeat, and brain activity stop, the life-force gradually ceases to fonction in body cells. Death is the opposite of life. However the Bible teaches that one day the dead will rise again on earth, called the 'resurrection' which literally means 'a standing up again' and it refers to a rising up from death. Comfirmed in the Book of John 5: 28,29 that reminds us that we are in the memorial tombs in God's memory. The Book of John 3: 16 reads. "For God love the world so much that he gave his only-begotten Son, so that everyone exercising faith in him might not be destroyed but have everlasting life. The provision for resurrection of the dead is a magnificient expression of Jehovah God's undeserved kindness; it displays his wisdom and power and is a means by which his original purpose regarding the earth will be carried out, confirmed in the Book of Psalm 37: 29 in these words. " The righteous will possess the earth, and they will live forever on it." So to answer your question concerning goosebumps, which is a physiologial reaction of our nervous system, will continue when life is reactivated in our body cells.
