The suits were used by several species. Among them were the [[Raxacoricofallapatorian]]s and the [[Foamasi]]s. If the skin was smaller than the individual using it, there were different techniques to use. The Raxacoricofallapatorians used [[compression field]] collars. Initially, the range of wearable skins were limited to [[humanoid]]s of large builds and had the side effect of frequent [[farting|gas expulsion]].

Raxacoricofallapatorians such as the [[Slitheen]] typically created skin suits from individuals they had [[murder]]ed. Alternatively, synthetic skin suits were in use by [[3764]], when [[Slist Fayflut Marteveerthon Slitheen]] wore one based on an image of the [[Ninth Doctor]] broadcast from [[Fluren's World]] to act as the star of ''[[Doctor Who?]]''.

The Foamasis were gifted with a biology that gave them hollow bones with double joints every few centimetres, a high liquid content, small organs and a retractable tail.
