Special Effects Health and Safety

Always follow these steps when experimenting and using special effects makeup equipment:
-Do NOT contaminate A or B, either together of with something else!
-Use different gloves when dealing with A and B to stop contamination.
-Use different sticks to scoop out the product or to mix the products.
-Don't use anything Aloe Vera based when using the products.
-Always use an even amount of products A and B when mixing them together to get the right consistency.
-Always make sure you mould is completely clean and dry before using because otherwise whatever is left in the mould will be in the next prosthetic piece.
-Always spray the setting spray by an open window.
-Make sure your kit is always clean so that the products can last for as long as possible.
-Always make sure all the products are stored correctly, i.e. in a cool place, with the bottles upright and with lids on.
-Make sure you powder the latex well so that they don't stick together.
-Wear clothes that you don't mind getting ruined because latex is almost impossible to get out.
-Tie your hair up and don't wear jewellery.
