Trying to make a rubber/latex.. (or silicone?) alien mask, and want it to use the same material used on these masks:

Have checked out Smooth-On

These are the closest I've found, but they're silicone - pretty sure this isn't want I'm looking for

Diving a bit deeper it would appear urethane rubber is what I need, maybe along the lines of this:

But looking up the "Batman Cowl" led me here - where they used liquid latex

I'd love to use a material that I can color/tint, it seems like most of these have that option, liquid latex comes in loads of colors too. Fortunately our masks will be quite dark, or decorated after molding.
Any help is greatly appreciated!
