Used every year for Mardi Gras parade!
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 touched CONS - 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.

Quality product
This worked perfectly. I did prime my skin like I would with regular foundation. And for a lighter color I blended it with the white Mehron color.

It lasted for hours after application but wherever you sit or touch will also have some residue but the black stays for long time at least it did on my thighs I scrubbed well multiple showers till it came off

Indomitable Champion of Lasting Coverage
When it comes to makeup that's going to withstand the rigors of a high-energy, sweaty event, your options are generally limited. We're talking about an environment that's the ultimate stress test for any cosmetic product, demanding resilience, longevity, and a no-smudge formula. Ladies and gentlemen, in the cacophonous realm of cosmetics, Mehron Makeup Paradise has emerged as an unassailable leader. Let's address the longevity. At a roller derby do, a cacophony of high-speed action, tightly packed bodies, and soaring temperatures, I put this product through its paces. Despite the humidity and the inevitable sweat, not once did I find myself with smudged or faded makeup. The color stayed as vibrant and well-defined at the end of the night as it was at the beginning. Application was a dream. Many products that promise long-lasting coverage often sacrifice ease of application, requiring professional skills to get it just right. The makeup glided smoothly over the skin, providing excellent coverage in a single swipe. There was no need for reapplication or touch-ups, which is often a tedious necessity with lesser brands. One of the most significant marks of a high-quality makeup product is the finish. Cheap products often betray their inferiority by caking or clumping. This formula offers a smooth finish that looks as good up close as it does from a distance. Whether you're across the roller derby rink or taking a selfie, the makeup retains its impeccable appearance. Another feature that cannot go unmentioned is the ease of removal. A makeup that stays on well but requires an industrial solvent to remove can be a deal-breaker. Luckily it excels in this regard as well. Despite its durable formula, the makeup came off effortlessly with cleanser, negating the need for any harsh scrubbing that could irritate the skin. It truly astounded me with its performance. From its superb longevity to its simple application and removal, this product ticks all the boxes for what one would want in a high-endurance makeup. Sorry for the terrible photo, it was the only photo I could find. I used light blue and was Monster High Roller Maze - Lagoona Blue.

Easy to use, even for beginners!
I used this grey along with blue and some white to make my Hades look. I'm pretty new to body paint, but Mehron is really easy to use even if you are brand new to using it. I also have sensitive skin and I can wear this all day without it being irritating. Since it's water based it's not thick like cream face paint. You can make it as thick or thin as you need it by adding less or more water, or building it up. Use a foundation brush, make up sponge, or acrylic paint brushes to apply. Since I also wear makeup on top of it for contouring and highlighting, I top it with just a regular setting powder since I always have translucent powder around.

Good Costume Makeup
I know absolutely nothing about makeup, and so read the reviews and ordered this based on reviews to do my makeup for my Sally costume. It was like a clay texture, so hard to get out and put on my face, but I finally was able to paint my entire face (just with a huge mess). I wore it to work, and I should've brought it with me to work because it didn't last very long, but it was nice for the couple hours it lasted.

wonderful face paint
This is a really top notch brand, love the vibrant colours of all that I have purchased in the past. I only had an issue with one of the light purple, it came mucky, but all the rest were amazing. The company is sending me a replacement for the purple, so I am completely satisfied with them. Communication was great! Love the brand and will always purchase from them. Thanks so much Paradise Mehron!

Gorgeous Paint!!
This face paint is absolutely gorgeous! It has a pretty shimmer to it and goes on very smooth. It even has a nice scent to it that somewhat resembles playdough. I love this product and will always purchase. It doesnt stain the face like some products, it comes off easy with soap and water
