With some imagination and a dab of Skin Imitator, you can simulate the look and texture of festering boils that will make your Halloween character truly unforgettable. By curing off some pigmented Skin Imitator in measuring spoons, you can achieve the look of raised, three-dimensional boils that appear as though they’ve erupted from beneath the skin. Layer and sculpt more Skin Imitator onto your skin and around the boils to achieve this gruesome look.
