Eulenspiegel Effect wax, 18 ml

Tips for Using Effect Wax:

Take the required amount of effect wax with a wax spatula from the container and knead it between your fingers until it is soft and pliable.

For example, if you want to model a longer scar, roll the wax into an elongated shape while kneading. For a gunshot wound, shape the wax into a ball first.

With a tiny amount of grease cream or petroleum jelly on your fingers, gently smooth out the transitions. The cream is important; otherwise, your fingers may stick to the effect wax, damaging your work in progress.

Effect wax is also great for pulling a needle (possibly with thread) through a fake scar. This works because effect wax has a firmer consistency compared to super soft putty, allowing for easier and more durable surface shaping than with the softer super soft putty.

Make sure to coat your tools, such as a wax spatula for the cut wound or the handle of a brush for the gunshot wound, with grease cream as well, so they don’t stick while modeling. You can set the wax model after coloring (Pofi-Aqua makeup is excellent for covering) with setting powder. However, keep in mind that effect wax does not gain protection from mechanical influences, as it always remains soft.

To fix effect wax better and more permanently, you can coat the area with mastix beforehand. Let it dry briefly before placing the effect wax. Effect wax can be easily smoothed, dissolved, and washed off with makeup remover.
