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.

EYESHADOW/ROUGE = Eyeshadow/Rouge

MAKE-UP SPONGES (DISPOSABLE) = Make-up Sponges (disposable)

BRUSHES POWDER ROUGE = Brushes Powder/Rouge

CAMOUFLAGE MAKE-UP PURE = Camouflage Make-up Pure

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.

DERMA WAX

To create skin deformities, you use Grimas Derma Wax.
Grimas Derma Wax is a transparent wax that adheres to the skin well, used for professional make-up effects such as creating various wounds and deformities on the skin. Its composition means that Derma Wax also adheres long lasting to soft and mobile parts of the skin, staying elastic.

Apply the Derma Wax in a curve from the forehead to the cheek.
