Follow Up to the Watermelon Prosthetic and Make-up Application

After wearing it for over 13 hours, the prosthetic did start showing it's flaws. These are supposed to be reusable, but mine came off splitting at the inner seam of the wound and the edges stayed on my skin. This is after spending ten minutes soaking it and rubbing it it warm soapy water. I am going to try to repair it with white latex and see how that goes.

The make-up did come off my skin with warm soapy water, but it had soaked into the prosthetic and it will not come off. That's okay if you are going to reuse and just touch up with make-up.

I am pretty old school, so I like the old style prosthetics that all ready come pre-painted and all you have to do is attach and blend.

I will post an update as to whether the white latex did repair the damage.

Overall, not bad if you are trying to save money or if you like make up your own wound color schemes.
