Creating burns and scarring


Products that can be used to create different types of scarring:
  • ·Wax
  • Sealer
  • Supracolour
  • Collodian – used for scarring and cut lips
  • A pallet knife
  • Tuplast – can be used for old, raised scarring (non flexible)
  • Derma shield (protects the skin)


One thing to remember when creating scars with makeup is that brighter coloured scars are new scars and dull coloured scars would be older. Before working on some ones skin with these harsh products you should always apply a barrier cream to the area you will be working on. In this case you should use the Derma shield.

How to create scarring using collodian:
  1. Apply some collodian to skinUse a pallet knife to pinch between the area of skin to create a ‘wrinkle’ and tighten effect the skin.
  2. Use a cool hair dryer to dry the area quickly
  3. Repeat this three of four times to create layers of the effect
  4. This type of scarring can be made to look like either new or old scarring, depending weather you colour the area using Supracolour

How to create raised scarring using Tuplast:
  1. 1. Place the top of the tube tuplast on the skin and lay it onto the skin. This will create a scar
    which looks like it could have been created with a knife.
  2. Allow the tuplast time to dry.
  3. You should then colour the scarring with Supracolour. A more realistic effect can be created by dabbing colour on top of the tuplast.
