Grimas | Boxer

Put a piece of wadding in the nose to maintain its shape and to absorb perspiration.

Colouring latex
Everything that is going to be coloured in a skin tone - except for the edges - must be pre-coloured slightly with red to suggest naturally perfused skin. To do this, apply Grimas Special Effects Powder 504 or a red Grimas Eyeshadow/Rouge using a Make-up Sponge or Powder Rouge Brush.
Then use a sponge to apply a covering layer of Grimas Camouflage Make-up Pure in the desired skin shade.

STICKING ON LATEX

Apply a little Grimas Mastix Extra to the inside of the scales/adhesive edge and allow it to dry for a few seconds. Do the following to get the correct degree of adhesion: press the latex prostetic lightly in place and then remove it again straight away. Wait a few seconds and reposition the application, pressing the edges in place with a tissue. Protect the eyes by closing them and covering them with a tissue. Can cause serious damage to the eyes.

Work directly from the stick or spatula. Note: don't use Crème Make-up Pure for skin tones, but use Grimas Camouflage Make-up Pure.
You can create a skin structure with a Grimas Stippel Sponge if necessary.

Camouflaging the latex edges:
To get a smooth transition between the latex prostetic and the skin, even the edges off as follows: apply a thin line of eyelash adhesive to the edge of a sponge and dab this over the transition between the latex prostetic and the skin. Allow to dry with help of a hairdryer until the result is transparent. Repeat this process until a nice and even transition is obtained.
Colour the edges of the transition with the colour being used.
