What it is used for
These concentrated liquids are designed for artists who need chromatic precision and real coverage in professional makeup work. Their alcohol-based formulation guarantees superior adhesion and durability compared to conventional products, whether applied with a brush or airbrush.
- Special effects makeup (SFX) in film, television and theatre
- Character makeup with complex or fantasy skin tones
- High-coverage beauty makeup
- Skin tone adjustment and correction on silicone and latex prosthetics
- Airbrush work for thin layers and precise gradients
- Blending and customising tone palettes for each project
- Complement to the Skin Illustrator Complexion Palette and Flesh Tone Palette
How to use it
- Make sure the surface (skin, silicone or latex) is clean and free of grease or moisture.
- Activate the colour with Skin Illustrator Activator, Slow Activator or isopropyl alcohol at 99%. Do not use 70° alcohol, MEK, acetone or water: they alter the formula and ruin the result.
- Apply with a makeup brush, sponge or directly into the airbrush. The liquid consistency makes it ideal for working undiluted in an airbrush gun.
- Work in thin layers. Coverage is high, so it is easier to build up colour than to remove excess.
- Mix colours directly on the palette or on the surface to create custom tones. The concentrates in this range are designed to adjust and correct blends of lighter or darker skin tones, such as those in the Skin Illustrator Dark Fleshtone Palette.
- Allow to dry between layers. Once dry, the makeup acquires its characteristic durability.
- If you need to set or reduce shine, apply a mattifying spray such as the HD Matting Spray Clear or the HD Matting Spray Shinto.
- To remove the makeup, use a specific solvent for alcohol bases. Do not use water or aggressive solvents on silicone prosthetics.
Tips for use
Correct activation: the step that makes the difference
The performance of this makeup depends directly on the activator you use. isopropyl alcohol at 99% works well for quick applications, but the Slow Activator extends working time and makes gradients and complex blends easier. Never use pharmacy-grade 70% alcohol: the water in its composition dilutes the pigments and deteriorates adhesion.
Airbrush: viscosity and cleaning
The liquid format of this range is designed for airbrush, but make sure to flush the equipment with isopropyl alcohol at 99% between colours and at the end of each session. Alcohol-based pigments dry quickly inside the needle and nozzle, which can clog the airbrush if not cleaned immediately. If the colour seems too opaque for an airbrush layer, you can add a few drops of activator to reduce the pigment concentration.
Working on silicone and latex prosthetics
On silicone, alcohol-based colours offer excellent adhesion as long as the surface is clean and free of Release agent residue. On latex, apply very thin layers to prevent product build-up from stiffening areas of movement. For transparency and glazing effects, the Skin Illustrator Glazing Gels are the ideal complement to modulate the opacity of colour layers.
Frequently asked questions
Can I use this makeup directly on skin without prior preparation?
Yes, but for the best result the skin should be clean, free of moisturisers or oils. The skin's natural oils can reduce adhesion. On very oily skin, apply a sealer or makeup fixative compatible with alcohol bases beforehand.
What is the difference between using the Activator and the Slow Activator?
The standard Activator evaporates quickly, which is useful for fast layers and airbrush work where you want to dry between passes without waiting. The Slow Activator slows evaporation and gives more working time, making brush gradients and blends directly on the surface easier.
Is it safe to use this makeup on sensitive skin or near the eyes?
The Skin Illustrator range is formulated for professional character makeup use, but always consult the product's safety data sheet before using in periorbital areas or on skin with conditions. If in doubt, perform a patch test on a small area before full application.
How do I achieve a matte finish with this makeup?
Alcohol-based makeup has a semi-matte finish once dry, but under set lighting it can produce some shine. For a truly matte finish, apply the HD Matting Spray Clear as a final layer. For finishes with a warmer skin tone or colour adjustment, the HD Matting Spray Shinto combines mattifying and a slight tone.
Can I mix these liquids with the colours from pan palettes?
Yes, the liquids and concentrates in this range are compatible with the rest of the Skin Illustrator line, including pan palettes such as the Flesh Tone Palette or the Complexion Palette. Activate the pans with the same activator to ensure blend compatibility.
How long does the makeup last once applied?
Durability is high when activated correctly and applied to a clean surface. On skin, it holds up well against light sweat and movement. For long shoots or high-perspiration conditions, reinforce with an alcohol-based setting spray and keep the activator on hand for touch-ups.
How do I clean the airbrush after using this product?
Flush the airbrush immediately after each use with isopropyl alcohol at 99%. Disassemble the needle and nozzle if you are leaving the equipment unused for a period. Alcohol-based pigments dry very quickly and can clog the equipment if not cleaned promptly.
Is this product suitable for working on latex prosthetics?
Yes, the Complexion Palette Liquid and Concentrate is compatible with latex. Apply thin layers to avoid stiffening areas of movement and make sure the latex surface is free of talc powder or other residue before applying.
