Black Snazaroo paint perfect for Halloween!!
Used the black Snazaroo face paint to paint on a skeleton face for Halloween.PROS- The paint is solid, just add water and use a brush to apply as thin or thick as you like.-I could probably paint my face like this 1000 before I would run out of the 18ml. -- but if not I will definitely purchase again!!-Cheap, got to my home quickly, and works perfectly.-It lasted all night but washes off with water.I ordered this the Saturday before Halloween weekend on Saturday, October 22 and received the product on Wednesday, October 26.Please rate this review as HELPFUL if it assisted you in making a decision.

Amazing pigment!
This is my favorite Face paint when it comes to cosplaying mina Ashido.It’s a lighter pink than anything else out there! It also applies easily and it’s easy to take off. It doesn’t stain my skin and is overall the perfect fit for what I needed. If you’re a cosplayer looking to cosplay Any light pink character I totally recommend this paint!

It stays better that way
I literally painted half of my body for a genderbent Hades and I still have half a cake left. Be careful though- you have to set it since it's water soluble. Dust it with some translucent powder (baby powder works if you don't want to buy something high end) and spray it with hairspray, then repeat. It stays better that way. I applied with a wet foundation brush and only needed one coat for opaque, even coverage. I used the light grey as a base coat and contoured with the dark grey.

Perfect for corpsepaint
A single paint cup/thing has lasted me two years (I painted my face at least 1-3 times a month)It is the paragon of all face paint -- ideal, perfect.Snazaroo has focused on making good, flexible paint with ideal non toxic ingredients. The ingredients are even better now than they were two years ago.The non toxic ingredients are so essential and important for someone who paints their face frequently.Me and my bandmates use and love Snazaroo, it is perfect for extreme black metal corpsepaint.

Homestucks! This stuff is great for face painting and is cheaper than Mehron and Ben Nye
ok so I use this for Homestuck cosplays, and I love the colour. It's perfect light grey, and I don't have to do any mixing. I bought this and a black snazaroo for Karkat (his sleepy raccoon eyes, I guess?) and I love how well it stays on. However, I've learned how to use it best by trial and error.1. test it out before you go to the con2. do NOT get it wet, or wear it where you'll be sweating a lot, or exposed to rain/humidity/swimming areas. It's water-based so it'll bleed off pretty quickly. Even taking a sip of water with it on, it rubs off my lips, so I always keep one of these with me at cons, to re-apply it. Use straws if you're drinking, and if you eat wearing this, you'll have to redo the lips. Unless you use lipstick instead of this on the lips, in which case, you're fine. I'm a guy so yeah, no lipstick. This works just fine.3. When I'm applying it, I don't follow the directions on the label. If you do just a light, thin layer like it suggests, it will look washed out, streaky, and blotchy. Your fingerprints and application strokes will show. I know that's how you're supposed to do it, but I just don't like how it looks. What I do is open up the cap, let a couple droplets of water soak into it, and wait until it's kinda a thick putty (peanut butter-ish?), then I glob it on my face. Yes, I know it sounds gross. Yes, my pores can still breathe, yes it's comfortable, no it isn't itchy, no it doesn't burn my skin, yes I've left it on for 10+ hours before and have had no issues whatsoever, no it doesn't aggravate my acne. The water-based compound is easy on my skin. It feels nice on, moisturising. After I do the base grey colour, I take just a dab of black Snazaroo on my pinky finger, make it into a thick paste just the same, and splotch it beneath my eyes for Karkat's baggy eyes. No streaking, just like a light dabbing motion, till it's well-blended. I let that sit about five minutes, and then use matte finishing spray (Ben Nye Final Seal). You need this. It will help. Your makeup stays in place, doesn't look mottled, and overall helps it not run as bad or look as shiny. I don't use any powders atop that, just the finishing spray. Spritz like once or twice into the air, walk into it, wait a couple minutes, and do it again, till you go through it 2-4 times or so? In theatre we used to use hair spray to set our makeup, but I've never tried it with Snazaroo, since every water and alcohol-based makeup reacts differently to the sprays. But yeah, Ben Nye is great. If you don't use a final seal, it's not a huge deal, but it'll make the Snaz blotch, run, and show sweat more.4. Don't use Snaz on your arms. Or your neck. Or your hands. Or your legs. It will run. You will be miserable. Your clothes will get grey all over the edges. Your con experience will be filled with grey smudges all over your priceless con purchases and group photos. You don't want that. Even expensive Mehron/Ben Nye paints will still run with heat, humidity, and time at the con. Plus you have to keep re-applying it. No matter how much you set it and re-apply it, you will have issues unless you absolutely don't touch anything. Not fun. It's fine if you're just going out for a photo op, but for a con, you want something where you can use your hands. So you can eat and drink and do other important activities. Also, bathroom breaks...yeah. Paint on your hands just isn't a good idea. I HIGHLY suggest making armsocks out of tights, fabric medium/paint, and fake nails painted yellow. There's a few awesome tutorials on Tumblr. That way you can pull them on and off, do pics, and actually grab that awesome t-shirt at the con. For limbs, don't use water, grease, or alcohol-based paints if it's an all-day con. You can but there's always that risk; even just brushing your leg on a chair might smear it. PAX is a good option for legs, as well as opaque tights. For photo ops (for less than an hour), any body paint will work fine. Anything more than that, PAX is great. It feels and looks like skin. It's a mixture of 60% Pros-Aid and 40% Liquidex paint. It is AMAZING. Anytime I cosplay Karkat, I do my neck with PAX, then my face with Snaz. The colours work great, and with the separation line just under my chin, you can't tell where the two paints blend. PAX does NOT rub off or smear on my collar. At all. Be kinda careful about humidity, though. DO shave before you use PAX; it can be ridiculous to scrub off. Best way to get PAX off is to sweat, let the bubbles bead up beneath it, and wipe off with a hot rag. SO, RECAP: Snaz for face. It is awesome. Cake it on. Ben Nye and Mehron are other good brands I've tried, and I know a few others that are like $30 per canister. But Snaz is cheap and works just fine. PAX on neck and upper arms. Arm socks for hands. You'll thank me later.5. Snaz washes off extremely easily, just a hot, wet rag and facial wash. As long as you don't rub your face too much during the day, and as long as you're not outside sweating, however, you shouldn't have a problem with it dripping off. I've used it at Dragon*Con, where I was waiting for panels outside in the heat. As long as I didn't touch my face when I came back inside, let the AC chill it down, the makeup reset to my face perfectly. Really just trial and error. But this stuff is way cheaper than Mehron and Ben Nye, and as long as you use it well, it works just fine.6. It goes a long way. I've been on the same grey and black containers for over a year, and have done Karkat probably 10 times. Just the face, but still. You don't need much.

Orange for forever
I dont even know where to begin on this. I decided to buy this as part of my Halloween makeup to look like a pumpkin. It arrived before they said it would which was great and it meant I had time to test it before the big night. Thank god this was the case.The colour was really bold and vivid and applied really well. What I wasn't expecting was the fact that this took and hour and a half to take off after. I tried to take it off and was hit by the realisation that this would not move for love nor money. The thought of going to work looking like my Mum had sex with a Wasit was not a look I was going for.Luckily with some superduper strong makeup remover this finally come off after an hour an a half of scrubbing.For those that are wondering, I ended up going as a black and white pumpkin in the end as I couldn't bare to do this experience again whilst drunk.

Me ha encantado.
Lo compré para un maquillaje de halloween sin mucha fé, pero me parece que funciona genial. Yo lo utilicé aplicándolo con una esponjita húmeda. Cuando se seca no es nada incómodo en la piel y no mancha nada, que es lo que más me gustó. También me gusta que se maneje con agua porque te permite sombrear y difuminar, o dar más intensidad donde quieras. Queda súper blanco. Para eliminarlo simplemente lavando con agua se va super bien, como si fuera una mascarilla facial. Es tan fácil de manejar y de aplicar que para los niños es fantástico, se pueden maquillar ellos mismos sin problema. Si manchas la ropa también se va con agua, comprobado.Compré 2 unidades por no quedarme corta... Pero no gasté ni medio tarro, y eso que éramos 3 personas para maquillar!

Great stuff.
I used this stuff to colour my face, head and neck as part of a fancy dress outfit for a Minion, and I found it to be great stuff. Once I had convinced myself to put enough water on the applicator sponge, it was a doddle. It didn't fade or streak, despite being on for several hours while I was out on the beer, but it washed off easily enough at the end of the night. Also, despite it feeling as though I had used a lot, there was loads of the stuff left at the end. If I need to use body paint again for any sort of outfit in the future, I will most definitely be using Snazaroo.

mines gone back
Mine arrived looking like this! Green grass looking a tad orange here. I sent this image to Snazaroo asking them if it was meant to look like this who said :No, a new Grass Green Face Paint should not have an orange rim.If stored properly in a dry and clean environment away from sunlight, unopened Snazaroo face paint should not go off.Once opened, it should be used within 18 months.good to know!!

It's Grinch!
There was a virtual Christmas jumper competition at work and I don't own a Christmas jumper so in a rare bout of lockdown camaraderie I decided to paint myself Grinch instead.I bought the lime one and it's green, it's really, really green!I've never used face paint before and wasn't entirely sure what I was doing. I tried with just a damp sponge initially but it didn't apply well so I softened the pot itself by passing it under the hot tap briefly and continued to apply with the damp sponge - that worked a treat.I did two layers, let it dry between layers and found out dabbing it on was better than wiping it on else it just wipes itself off. I've got loads left too, it looks barely touched.Getting it off was tougher. I scrubbed at it, exfoliated, used a cleanser and it all looked fine until went into daylight and noticed a decidedly yellow tinge to my skin. That took another scrubbing and a further day or so for stain to go.Behold the face than won the Christmas Jumper comp without owning a Christmas jumper 😂Would I buy it again? Yes. Video calls are so much more fun when you're green.
