Mark the outline using the make-up that you are going to be using. The marking makes sure that you will be able to put the latex prostetic in place correctly first time later. These marks will then disappear naturally into the make-up.
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. Allow the glue to dry for 15 seconds and then place the latex prostetic back on the skin.
Protect the eyes by closing them and covering them with a tissue. Can cause serious damage to the eyes.
Use a pin-tail comb to hold the scaly edges properly in place and glue them straight. Press the edges down firmly with a tissue.
