Prosthetic Makeup for Zombies

When it comes to creating lumps, bumps, open wounds or sores for your zombie costume, you can make a dramatic impact with this 100% latex pre-painted prosthetic makeup piece. Also included is some clean up solvent, so you can quickly resort to your non-zombie state.

As with most prosthetics, it is best to experiment with how where you apply this piece and how you dress it up for best effect. It is important to apply enough adhesive to ensure the piece is secured. Dressing the prosthetic with flesh coloured makeup and fake blood will help to blend the wound with the surrounding tissue for a more dramatic effect.
