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) - Black

This was great body makeup. I was purple all day! I did a full face and neck as well as hands (it will come if you wash them). It went on smooth and dark without needing lots of layers. I would recommend YouTube for tips on how to best apply. Make sure to still do eye makeup, highlights, blush, etc. to get a full look. Also do not apply in a hot bathroom. When I practiced at home it went great. When I was putting it on for the convention I kept having patches come off weird. That’s when I realized I was sweating and it wasn’t drying. Other than that it was great. It stayed on well but did come off easy with water when I was done for the day. This comes with quite a bit of makeup as well. I did my full face and neck probably four times and have enough left to use it another time or two. Definitely a great brand.

Worked very well with my costume!

works exactly as intended

Very pigmented. Stayed on until I took it off. This brand of body paints I highly recommend if you are looking for starter paint.

I love this brand for doing cosplay makeup! It’s great quality doesn’t stain your skin, easy to get off and apply. I really love this brand.

Perfect for cosplay. I used the red to paint my face for Red Hulk. It matched my body suit I love how easily it is to apply and washing out with just warm water and soap. It doesn’t leave any stains on my skin. A bit tricky to blend colors to contour but it’s only my second time using water activated paints. So just have to learn the tricks. I use their setting powder as well but ones it’s dried it is set and won’t come off unless you get it wet. Does not transfer once fully dried and set with powder. I do recommend a good brush for applying so you don’t get lines. You can also blend with a make up sponge.

I'm in a dance krewe for Mardi Gras in New Orleans, and this is the brand everyone in the group uses. In the picture, I used a combination of dark pink and metallic fuchsia.PROS+It stays surprisingly well+Easy to apply+Solid, opaque color (when applied well with two layers)++++IT WASHES OFF EASILY! Wipes right off of the walls, the sink, your clothing, that thing you didn't realize you touchedCONS- requires two layers (not that big of a deal)- continues to rub off on everything you dump into (assuming that's mostly an issue if you're in humidity or sweat a lot)When I say I sweat a lot, I really mean that 😂 I used a setting spray, but I think it would last longer with a better spray. I also used fabric to dry sweat while I was dancing, so that removed some paint. The before picture was taken around 4pm, I'd had the paint on at least an hour. The after picture was around 10pm immediately after dancing for 3 hours solid, in the New Orleans humidity.In the past, we've only used the light pink, so this year we tried something different. The light pink is great too though. One container is more than enough to cover 3 adult bodies! But probably not sanitary to share unless you're really close with those people.Word of advice, do two layers and DON'T SMEAR WHEN YOU APPLY IT! You can smear the first layer on if you really want, but take the time to pat the second coat on. Like sponge painting. Applying it in strokes rather than pats will make it look streaky, at best. At worst it will wipe off the first layer and just show your skin through. It takes longer, but it's worth it not to have to go back a third time and fix the areas that didn't hold up to smearing.Overall, definitely recommend this brand.

Usually I love mehron paradise but I had some minor problems with this one.I got the purple one.The pro was that just like all the other mehron paradise paints, this had amazing coverage and super smooth application.I applied it with a brush and sprayed the cake with setting spray fo activate it .It dried quickly and flat.However, I noticed very quickly that it's not as pigmented as the other mehron paradise colors I use (white and red).So that's honestly the only problem I had with it.I only used it for a last minute homade photoshoot in the backyard, so it wasn't that bad, but i probably would use something else for a convention.I also should mention that the cake had red and blue spots on it and stained my brush bright red after I used it, but it came off after a wash
