SIMBODIES® Cream Shock Colour – Systemic Shock Effect

Overview

Visually communicate systemic medical emergencies at a glance with SIMBODIES® Cream Shock Colour. Developed in partnership with professional cosmetics manufacturer Grimas, this high-fidelity cream makeup is engineered to replicate the pale, ghostly pallor associated with severe shock, hypothermia, massive blood loss, and cardiac arrest.

Packaged in a compact container, it serves as an essential moulage component for transforming live roleplayers, standardised patients, or platinum silicone manikins into critically unstable casualties.

Key Features & Benefits

• Authentic Post-Mortem & Shock Pallor: Formulated with specific pigments to simulate the sudden loss of skin colour, peripheral vasoconstriction, and advanced circulatory collapse.

• Seamless Blendability: The creamy texture spreads evenly and can be feathered out beautifully using a stipple sponge or fingertips to create an organic, realistic transition from normal skin tones to a shocked appearance.

• Silicone Safe: Completely safe for use on premium platinum silicone manikins and task trainers. It provides excellent visual coverage during scenarios and washes clean without permanently staining or altering your simulation assets.

• Safe for Live Roleplayers: Formulated with cosmetic-grade, non-toxic ingredients that are gentle on human skin, providing a safe and comfortable experience for actors during long training exercises.

Advanced Moulage Applications

The Power of the First Impression: In clinical triage, a patient's visual presentation provides critical immediate clues. By applying a muted, pale shock tone around the eyes, lips, and cheeks, instructors force trainees to instantly recognise systemic hypoperfusion and prioritise aggressive fluid resuscitation or warming protocols.

• Hypovolemic & Hemorrhagic Shock: Replicates the severe paleness that accompanies catastrophic internal or external bleeding before the trainee applies a tourniquet or initiates wound packing.

• Hypothermia & Environmental Exposure: Creates a realistic baseline appearance for cold-weather training, maritime rescue simulations, or prolonged field care scenarios.

• Cardiac & Respiratory Arrest: Ideal for simulating a patient who has suddenly collapsed, providing the flat, pale visual profile associated with a lack of oxygenated blood flow.
