Ian Marier, a self-taught fx artist and mask fanatic began making foam
latex prosthetics 25 years ago in his father’s garage. His expertise gradually
turned toward his passion for making masks.

REALfLESH Masks has grown from a one-man operation to working now with
some of the best sculptors and skilled technicians to produce the highest
quality silicone masks possible.

Each silicone mask is made entirely by hand and every step meticulously
achieves the best quality there can be.

The realism created by these masks comes from a combination of small
eye holes, bubble-free silicone, reinforced mesh, realistic mouth movement, and
chest coverage.
REALfLESH Masks are made from vacuum degassed, bubble-free silicone.
Mesh reinforces the stress areas to provide a very high-tear resistance. The
high-quality flexible silicone and integrated rigid nose bridge make these
masks incredibly comfortable and self-adjusting.

The smallest, seamless, most comfortable eye holes and realistic mouth
movement, which is not possible with latex masks, provides these masks with their real-life appearance.

The chest area on REALfLESH masks extends very low to provide the best
coverage and realism. For those wishing to be The Playmate, this mask provides
a full chest and amazing mouth movement to allow to you to become the fantasy
female. This mask comes standard bald to
allow your own addition of a wig and/or makeup which can be washed away gently
with regular soap.

These masks are amazing. I had no idea you could put makeup on them, that's pretty cool!
ReplyDeleteI couldn't believe how "real" they actually look, and I was surprised that makeup could be used with them, too. Thank you for visiting!
