About Skin Adhesives
Skin adhesives sold for cosmetic or theatrical use are made from FDA components and are safe for use on the skin. All are, to a degree, moisture or sweat resistant, so it makes sense that a remover would be needed to remove them. Always get the right remover for the adhesive you are using. Bond-Off is a remover that works on almost anything. Bond-Off contains flammable solvents so it works faster. Please wait for the remover to do its job, if you get impatient and start pulling you can tear the skin.

Spirit gum is the traditional skin adhesive, but Prosthetic Adhesive and Medical Adhesives are stronger in that order. Prosthetic Adhesive is often latex based and medical adhesives are often silicone based. Medical Adhesives stink so actors usually don't like them around their face.

Spirit gum is best for students, beards and mustaches. Please allow me to teach you a little trick. Put a thin coat of spirit gum on the skin and allow it to dry. Pull at it with a lint-free cloth (a piece of panty hose rolled in on itself works great.) until you can feel it get more and more strength. Use the same theory that you used when you patched bicycle tires when you were a kid. In this case, less is more, just like rubber cement. Once you have some "Tooth" as I call it, you can place the appliance on the skin. For real holding power, do this to both sides. This also works well with prosthetic adhesive.

These adhesives won't create a miracle; if you expect to glue a heavy object to the skin and expect it to stay you will be disappointed when your skin sags and drops toward the ground.
