MehronMakeup Paradise Makeup AQ Pro Size | Stage & Screen Performance, Face & Body Painting, Beauty, Cosplay, and Halloween | Water Activated Face Paint, Body Paint 1.4 oz (40 g) – White

The best Halloween makeup i have ever used stays for a long time and doesn’t irritate your skin after.

It’s a good product, clean and smooth application, easy to work with, good and affordable

I love this brand of face paint makeup. This is the only one I will order and use. The coverage is amazing. Especially with white, it’s full coverage and dries quickly. It’s super easy clean up and easy to take off.

Overall, this is a pretty great product. It goes on very smoothly with the right sponge, and only needs about 2 or 3 quick layers to be opaque. Once it dries, you can rub your face with your fingers, and it will barely budge with little to no rub-off. Magical. The huge downside is that, no matter what I finished it with, ANY amount of liquid will cause it to instantly run or rub off. I did a skull pattern on my face for a cosplay with the Mehron Paradise Black/White, and the black got into my waterline (my fault) and caused the corner of my eye to freak out (I have sensitive eyes). It ended up dripping all day in that corner, and that slight amount of liquid kept removing any amount of black/white paint in the corner. Aside from this though, if it doesn't get wet, it will stay on all day without fail, just make sure you put on a primer to control oil and you're golden.Pros:-Unlike other Mehron products, this is VERY gentle on skin, I didn't break out at all, and I have very sensitive skin-Breathable-Creamy-Smells like Coconut-Very easy to remove with face wash and water, no makeup remover or heavy scrubbing needed-Quite Pigmented, especially the black shade-If no liquid touches it, it stays on all dayCons:-Biggest con is if any liquid touches it, it will start coming off quickly-Unless you use the right sponge, it can be tricky to apply evenly-I read that this will last for 30+ applications. I used this for 6 faces/some neck, though I applied it very opaquely, and I can see the bottom of the container, about 1/4 of the container or less is leftAll in all, for a first-time user, this worked out better than I thought it would. It has some pretty horrible cons, but the pros definitely outweigh them enough for me to still give this product 4 stars.

Omg. Was about to kill me with how horribly it was applying with a beauty blender. I switched to my IL MAKIAGE foundation brush (which is dense) and it went on like a dream. Wore it to a Chappell Roan concert and it held up incredibly, considering all I did was a light powder and a light set. Never done drag or dramatic face like this before and it was great to use. Good to blend the eyeshadow contours into, too.Enjoy the 0.5pic of me to see how it looks up close in my pores after a few hours in the heat.TIPS: Use a foundation brush and not a sponge. Prime your face w primer. Keep your layers consistent and move fast. You can apply lightly but it’s harder than heavy.It came off the most on my upper lip (and I don’t even sweat much) so powder the heck out of it especially around your mouth.

The product that I received was actually authentic Mehron and quite opaque when applied using a dense, damp Real Techniques foundation brush. At the end, I used a slightly damp makeup sponge with a tiny bit of product for a final pass to erase a few brush strokes (reached ~99% opacity), then set with Ben Nye pigmented clown white powder (which made it 100% opaque) all over the face except for the mouth area, which I set with Mehron neutral powder where my partner applied red over some scar wax and liquid latex for their Halloween costume. We're both novices w/ FX & cosplay makeup, but it turned out awesome and didn't budge. They were able to wash off the face paint with only water and facewash.I bought this to use for a Halloween costume for myself that I didn't end up using it for, but I've played around with it to test it for future use in cosplay, mixing it with Mehron's purple in the same formula to make a lavender that I applied to my arms and face before setting w/ Mehron powder and a random setting spray. I used a cleansing balm followed by warm water on a microfiber towel to remove the paint from my face, so it was fully removed before getting in the shower. It came off using just water & gentle bodywash on my arms. The removal process was very easy, and I was very pleased with our results

I purchased this to use for a costume at a convention because it had Prime, and the liquid Kryolan paint that I ordered was not going to arrive in time.This stuff is tricky to apply evenly, but it does work okay for smaller areas. I used it on my face, shoulders, and arms, and while I had no troubles with it on my face, it was very difficult to get an even coat on my arms and shoulders, even with multiple coats. The consistency can be adjusted with the amount of water used--I found that a paste-like consistency worked the best. An open-pored sponge or brush worked much better than a dense makeup sponge, though you still need several coats to avoid streaks or patches. It is also very translucent with only one coat, so even if you were successful in getting an even coat the first time, you would still need one or two more to get a true white skin. It took close to 2.5 hours to get the effect that I wanted.I was fairly satisfied with the end result, but I would not recommend it for covering larger areas than the face and neck. In the end, I would probably not use it again because liquid is much easier for me to use, but if you are doing a basic costume or want to use it for regular face painting, then it will likely serve you very well.

The media could not be loaded. Purchased this makeup for Halloween. We did a family themed skeleton crew. We walked outside in humid 80+ degree weather and it didn’t smudge or run. Looked great! Held up well while hot and sweaty.
