PREPARATION

Before starting, you ensure your hands and nails are well cleaned. File your nails if necessary, so that there are no snags. By doing this you prevent damages on the face and risk of infection.

Always work using clean materials (sponges, brushes, spatulas, water bowls) and change the water regularly.

Get the subject to put on any clothes beforehand that have to be put on over the head. Protect your models clothing with a hairdressing cape or a towel.

Grimas Latex Prosthetics are used to achieve a three-dimensional effect when doing the make-up. When used properly, the latex prostetics can be re-used several times.
LATEX PROSTHETICS = Latex prostetics
First degrease and clean the skin you are going to be working on with Grimas Cleansing Lotion. Then dry the skin with a tissue.
CLEANSING LOTION = Cleansing Lotion
Take the latex prostetic out of the box and place it on the skin to get an impression of whether the edges are a good fit and where it is soon going to be glued on. Mark the outline using the make-up that you are going to be using. These marks will then disappear naturally into the make-up.
LATEX PROSTHETICS = Latex prostetics
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.
PUT ON THE LATEX APPLICATION

Apply a little Grimas Mastix Extra to the inside of the scales/adhesive edge and allow it to dry for a few seconds.

Protect the eyes by closing them and covering them with a tissue. Can cause serious damage to the eyes.

MASTIX EXTRA = Mastix Extra
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.
CAKE MAKE-UP

You apply Cake Make-up with a slightly damp make-up sponge. Take the make-up sponge between the fingertips and squeeze it together to create a round surface. With this surface the make-up can be applied.
If you work with too much moisture, streaks will form. You can press the make-up sponge down onto a tissue to remove any excess moisture. Cake Make-up dries quickly, so you need to work quickly to achieve a nice result.

MAKE-UP SPONGES (DISPOSABLE) = Make-up Sponges (disposable)
You apply Cake Make-up with a slightly damp make-up sponge. First dab a little Cake Make-up onto the hand to check the colour intensity. Cake Make-up dries quickly, so you need to work quickly to achieve a nice result.

Apply the make-up over the face and the application.

Cake Make-up dries quickly, so you need to work quickly to achieve a nice result. If the result is not even, turn the sponge that you worked with over and use the clean side to even out the make-up. Any possible stripes after drying you can gently fade out with a tissue.

Apply lines to the face.
By shadowing and lightening you create a depth effect. Shaded/dark segments cause that area to recede optically, whereas highlighted/lighter segments make something stand out optically.
Cake Make-up can also be applied with a brush. Test the colour intensity on the hand.

Use a new colour of Cake to fill in the areas on the forehead, under the cheekbones and on the jawline.

WATER MAKE-UP (PURE)

Water Make-up works just like watercolour paint. Use the brush and a little water to soften the make-up and make it a bit pasty. Test the colour intensity on the hand. Don't work too dry, but do not use too much water.

Draw in a neat eyebrow line in a single fluid motion using a flat sable-hair brush. Start the line with the side of the flat brush at the frown line by the bridge of the nose. Turn the brush around to the broad side in a single fluid movement as you draw the line diagonally upwards.

Always twist the brush from the oblique side to the flat side.

Then use white to highlight it further.
When working with Water Make-up preferably use separate brushes for light and dark colours.
Hint: Regularly change the water you rinse your brushes in and preferably work with two water bowls: one for light and one for dark shades.

Grimas Water Make-Up (Pure) can be used around the eyes, but children often do not like it when brushes are so close to the eyes. So decide yourself how far you want to extend the colour.
When working under the eyes, have your model look upwards - only with the eyes, without moving the head. If you work above the eyes (eyelid), have your model close his/her eyes in a relaxed manner.
Children are inclined to shut their eyes tight. Then you can say: keep your eyes closed as if you are sleeping.

Use the same shades to draw small stripes in around the chin.
The more quickly you draw the line the straighter it will be, and the more pressure you apply on the brush, the thicker the line becomes.

If you do not want the colours to mix, be sure to wait for the first layer to dry before applying another colour over it or up against it.
When working with Water Make-up preferably use separate brushes for light and dark colours.

Colour the dimples in the snout in with dots from a fine brush.
You can also use Grimas Stipple applicator for this.
WOOL CREPE

Prepare 7 pieces of wool crepe for the lion. It needs 3 mixed round pieces and 4 flat yellow/blonde pieces.

WOLCRÊPE = Wool Crepe
Grimas Wolcrêpe is a woven strand of pieces of sheep's wool that you can use to make single-use beards, moustaches, eyebrows and sideburns.

Pulling Wool Crepe loose
Pull 7 braids of about 20 cm wool crepe loose from the strings around which it has been wound. One strand is brown, for mixing.

WOLCRÊPE = Wool Crepe
If you feel resistance, you cut the strings loose so that you can continue.
Pull the start of the straight-edge cut pieces loose, so that their ends become fluffy.

Straightening
Straighten out the parts you are working with, using a curler, styling tongs or an iron (on the 'wool' setting).
Straighten out the parts you are working with, using a curler, styling tongs or an iron (on the 'wool' setting). Do not pull it too hard so the braids remain intact.
Pull gently to the right length
Now make the pieces that you are working with longer and looser: run them through your hands and pull them gently bit by bit in the lengthwise direction, but so that the pieces still remain intact.
Creating tufts

For each piece: Pull the loosened piece into two in the middle, in the lengthwise direction along with the hairs; place the two pieces on top of each other and divide them into two again.

Keep the hands about 20 cm apart. Hold the Wool Crepe against the light to see if there are any dark patches. Keep repeating this action until the Wool Crepe is transparent.

Once the result is transparent, pull the piece back out to a length of 20 to 25 cm.

Now flatten out 4 pieces using a curler, styling tongs or an iron (on the 'wool' setting).

Use hairspray with a strong hold to strengthen the 7 pieces. You can also use plastic spray.
Note: using hairspray or plastic spray on the Wool Crepe will make it inflammable.
WOLCRÊPE = Wool Crepe
Cut the end off 1 mixed round piece at an angle. Keep the piece as long as possible.
Stick it on to the triangle that has been drawn on the forehead with Water Make-up. Retain the pieces that have been cut off.
WATER MAKE-UP (PURE) = Water Make-up Pure
You can use the pieces that have been cut off to make the end result fuller. You can also use them to apply colour accents.
Snip 1 round piece at an angle through the middle.
Stick the pieces next to the first piece.

Snip 1 flat piece through the middle, keeping the scissors at an angle while doing so (obliquely with respect to the wool crepe).

Stick the pieces to the side of the face at the temples and above the ears.
Cut the ends off 2 flat pieces at an angle. Cutting off the pieces at the end lets you keep as much of the length as possible.
Stick the pieces on both sides of the jawline at an oblique downward angle.

REMOVING THE PRODUCTS

Latex noses and sets
Detach the adhesive edge with a cotton bud soaked in Grimas Mastix Remover. Remove the adhesive and make-up residues from the latex prostetic with Mastix Remover.

Wool Crepe
Wool Crepe that has been stuck on with Mastix Extra you remove with Mastix Remover. To stress the skin as little as possible, you can first massage it with Grimas Cleansing Cream. You can then already pull some of the hairs loose and remove them with a tissue. The remaining hairs and the adhesive you remove with a cotton wool pad and Mastix Remover. Dab it carefully onto the skin and roll the residual material off the skin. Then you continue cleaning with Cleansing Cream or Cleansing Milk by massaging it in and removing it with a soft tissue.

If the skin feels dry after cleaning, you can apply a care cream.
If Water Make-up gets onto clothing, rinse it out under a tap. Leave the item of clothing to soak in water containing a pre-wash (Biotex). Then wash it by hand or put it in the washing machine.
When used properly, the latex prostetics can be re-used several times.
Remove the adhesive and make-up residues from the latex prostetic with Mastix Remover. Clean the latex prostetic afterwards using water and soap, and powder it with Grimas Transparent Powder after drying (with a dryer, if necessary).

CLEARING UP THE MATERIALS

If necessary, rinse the Water Make-up clean and wipe the surfaces of the colours dry with clean tissues. Let the make-up dry out in the air and only put the lid back on when the Water Make-up is dry. Store it in a dry and cool place until the next time you use it.

The sponges are disposable so you can throw them away after use. If you do want to reuse them, first rinse them under the tap with some soap or shampoo or wash them in the washing machine (in a net bag or pillow case), set to at least 60°C.

You can clean brushes with water and soap or shampoo. Put the moist hairs of the brushes back into shape by hand after washing. Dry the brushes lying flat on a towel and do not place them upright, since that causes the moisture to run down into the shaft.
