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.

Procedure for Derma Wax
Use the convex rounded side of the Derma Wax Spatula to take Derma Wax out of the jar. By scraping it out, you already make the texture a bit flexible. You then make the wax easier to model by applying it to the ball of your thumb and scraping it off again with the spatula two or three times. The wax must be flexible but also firm and must definitely not be allowed to get too soft and sticky.

Apply the Derma Wax in a curve from the forehead to the cheek. Model it and dab it off as usual.
Smooth the edges flat so that grease and moisture can not get underneath. Smooth the Derma Wax surface and edges off with the fingertip, using a little bit of Grimas Cleansing Cream. Dab all over with a dry, clean make-up sponge. Doing this, you remove the excess Cleansing Cream and you create a skin-texture effect. Powder the whole with a make-up sponge with Grimas Transparent Powder to matt and fix it; then turn the sponge over and continue dabbing with the clean side until the excess powder has been removed.

COLOURING THE SKIN

In this example we are using Crème Make-up Pure, as this can be applied easily and blends beautifully. Keep the front of the nose broad by working out the light colour up to the side of the nose. The nose now looks bigger than it is. Then work according to the principles of highlighting/shading to obtain more expression. By using a dark colour up against the light colour, the light part comes extra in prominence.
