When creating an acid burn on your arm, make sure to wear clothes you don't mind getting dirty.The main items I used for this project include:
Elmer's glue, cotton balls, cream make-up, blush powder (tan colors), make-up brushes, fake blood, and Alka-Seltzer tablets.
First, put a layer of glue below your wrist and let it dry. Repeat this 2 more times, so that you have about 3 layers of glue applied on.
Second, apply cotton on top of the last layer of glue applied. And once that's completed, cover the cotton with glue gently.
Once the glue is dry, carefully poke some holes using the point of a brush or with the tip of your fingers, pinch some of the dry edges of the glue to give it texture.
The next step is as fun as the next and that is to play around with the make-up. Place a dark red cream color in the holes created to show wounds. And than mess around with tan-like colored powders and make sure to add brown powder around the wounds.
The last step is to grab your fake blood and place it in the wounds. Also, blend it with the rest of the make-up applied. For a gruesome effect, crush an Alka-Seltzer's tablet. Place some crushed pieces on the blood as it starts to pop and ooze with the blood.

This is brilliant! The alka-seltzer really tops it off and gives it a nice sheen.
