What is Moulage ?

• The ancient art of applying fake wounds to train
  EMS, Military Medical Responders, and numerous
  other fields of medical professionals.
• This can consist of pre-made wounds being applied
  with spirit gum, all the way up to full body
  burns that can take hours to apply.

Schkin

• In a large bowl, mix together (2) 13 oz.
  petroleum jelly, (3) 16 oz.
• solid cornstarch, 2-5 TBS liquid foundation
  (depending on color). You
• don't want it too sticky or too dry. You can
  start out mixing it with a
• spatula, but eventually will need to put on
  rubber gloves and get your
• hands in it to get it mixed all the way through.
  It is easier to clean up
• with paper towels, first, then try and wash your
  hands with soap and
• water.
