FAQs

What are prosthetic appliances?

Prosthetic appliances are pre-made pieces used in special effects makeup to create realistic transformations, such as wounds, scars, burns, facial features, or even fantasy characters. They’re typically made from foam latex, silicone, or gelatin and are applied directly to the skin using adhesives.

At Frends Beauty, we carry a wide range of professional prosthetics from brands such as Rubber Wear, Woochie, Brian Kinny's Hurt Box, Tinsley Transfers, MEL Labs, P.T.M., and Out of Kit.

Are special FX prosthetics safe to use on the skin?

Yes, when used properly with professional-grade products, SFX prosthetics are safe to wear. However, it is important to:

  • Use disposable brushes and clean tools when applying these products.
  • Always apply them with skin-safe adhesives, such as Pros-Aide or Telesis.
  • Patch test a new product on the actor’s skin first.
  • Remove them with the appropriate removers, like Super Solv or Telesis Remover, to protect the skin.

For sensitive areas or prolonged wear, many artists also prep the skin with a protective barrier spray, such as Ben Nye Final Seal or Derma Shield. Following these best practices ensures comfort, safety, and clean removal without irritation.
