If you're the type that loves to go over the top you could even make these poppable. Just inject it with fluid using a syringe and then seal it up with a dab of liquid latex. The best budget "goo" for that kind of thing is probably cornstarch and water with a few drops of food coloring.

Nice. These little jewels are much like the ones we made for military exercises to simulate skin damage from blister agents. We didn’t have a make up kit to simulate wounds so we improvised a lot. Since our “victims” were not up walking around we used a technique that doesn’t hold quite as well on ambulatory types.
We used a small dab of Vaseline, covered by a piece t of Kleenex, forming a blister because the Kleenex becomes translucent. Using some washable color we simulated redness around the blister and a bit of yellow on the blister itself, upped the squitch factor a bit. The only problem is that you can’t easily run around much as they would slide around if you moved vigorously.
Another bit of fun at casualty exercises was simulating being a victim of nerve agents with violent twitching. Just don’t let some idiot try to administer a real autoinjector to the faux victim. So you can see that zombie apocalypse and costuming just comes naturally for me.

A nice kit for simulating damage, but you can do it yourself http://www.paintandpowderstore.com/proddetail.php?prod=MM-1264&cat=263
