Lizard Facial Prosthetic

Apply to the skin with Spirit Gum/Mastic (not included).

The prosthetic is slip cast latex. It is of uniform thickness. Only the edge is glued where it sits flat to the skin. This edge is not feathered but it can be concealed using latex or a combination of latex and thickener. Normal spirit gum is suitable to apply the prosthetic, and any water-based face paint, or even alcohol based can be used to paint it. If the prosthetic is to be used under hot stage lighting or in conditions where a grease paint is preferred, use oil based cream make up after the latex has been coated with caster sealer, alternatively use rubber mask grease paint which is specially formulated with extra oil added to it. It is much easier to pre-paint the prosthetic prior to fitting. The prosthetic can be re-used multiple times. It may be necessary to trim the edge to fit. It can be cleaned with gum removers and/or soap and warm water.

This application is uncoloured and colours in images are acheived with water based makeup and fixative.

In 1984 Morbid Masks Studios began manufacturing Latex Masks and Special Effects.

In 2008 Morbid Masks Studios stopped production of all Masks, especially it's ever popular Thin Skin Latex Masks. This was because the supplier of the special paint that gave Morbid Masks their unique characteristics terminated supply for good. The whole process relied on this paint and no other alternatives were comparable. The moulds were redundant and could not be stored; nearly all were thrown away. So ended an era.

In 2012 a new supply of paint had been found and Morbid Masks was resurrected,

Apart from our regular range of latex rubber ears, noses, horns and facial features, we also currently make tbree designs of Live Role Play Fighting Claws, our latest Cat Claw design now available. Plus we have re-introduced an old GRP (fibreglass) Skull Helm in several colours and sizes.

This Water Based Make Up from Epic Effect belongs to a series of deep pigmented, high quality colours. The colours are excellent for face painting and provide great coverage, even on foam latex appliances. The colours can be used on all parts of the body; it will even cover hair, beards and mustaches. The Epic Effect Water Based Make-Up will stay on the skin until you wash it off with soap and water. For even more staying power, seal the makeup with Epic Effect Setting Spray. There is a lot of pigment in Epic Effect colours so use them sparingly. This make-up dries matt so there is no need to powder.

1. Use a slightly damp sponge or brush to apply the deep pigmented colors to the skin.
2. Create the finishing highlights and details with a brush.
3. Water Based Make Up can also be used to color hair, that is not bleached or dyed in advance.
4. Wash of the Water based Make Up with soap and warm water.

Epic Effects Mastix Spirit Gum is a non-toxic adhesive for applying latex prosthetics and hair to skin. The gum is almost invisible once dried, improving the look of prosthetics. Mastix Spirit Gum is safe to use on children, but should be kept out of reach and applied only with adult supervision. The glue comes in a 12 ml bottle with screw-on lid. Inside the lid, the bottle is suited with a tiny brush helping the user apply the glue effectively.

Directions for use:

• Clean the skin and the prosthetic with Mastix Spirit Gum Remover.
• Apply a thin layer of glue to your prosthetic with an applicator. Let it dry completely until clear and repeat with a second layer.\
• Apply the prosthetic in the desired position and hold in place for ten seconds.

Removal:

Gently peel the prosthetic away from the skin starting at one corner, using the Mastix Spirit Gum Remover to dissolve the glue and to clean the skin. Then clean your skin and the prosthetic with mild soap and warm water.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Epic Effect Mastix Spirit Gum should not be used around the eyes or on mucous membranes like the lips, eyelids or on private areas. Keep away from open flames, as this product is highly flammable.
