Special FX
Premade Prosthetics
Premade prosthetics are ready made latex pieces, such as bald caps, ears and noses, that give a dramatic transformation without sculpting from scratch. They are attached to the skin with an adhesive such as spirit gum, then blended and coloured with make up so the edges disappear. Premade prosthetics suit Halloween costumes, school plays, cosplay and film projects.

About Premade Prosthetics
Why start with a latex bald cap?
A bald cap removes the hairline, which is what makes zombie, alien, ghoul and old age looks read as properly transformed. The Latex Rubber Bald Cap is a staple of the kit. Tuck hair flat under it first, glue the edges down, then blend the edge with makeup or liquid latex.
How do you attach and remove prosthetic pieces?
Spirit gum is the usual adhesive for latex pieces, and you will want the matching remover for the end of the night. Both are in our SFX accessories range. Apply thin layers to clean, dry skin, let it go tacky, then press the piece on and hold it for a moment.
What can you add for extra effect?
Pieces like the Clip On Elf Ears are quick wins for fantasy and elf costumes, and need no glue at all. If you prefer to build your own effects, try liquid latex and scar wax. Paint any latex with theatrical makeup to match the skin tone. Take your time on the edges, because a clean blend is what sells a prosthetic from a distance.
