Mehron CreamBlend Stick Makeup, Stick .75 oz (21 g), Dark 3

Mehron paints never let me down! This color ("Blue") was perfect for my last minute Mystique costume. It's more ultramarine blue than in the pics; my phone camera tends to not pick up bright colors well. It's a great match for her color in "Days of Future Past". It's thick, it's blendable, and lasted pretty well despite me not setting it with powder. It doesn't fully dry down though, so I was very shiny lol. You should definitely set it with powder, I just didn't have time. There's no strong chemically smell, and you can't beat a stick for ease of application. Very pigmented and opaque, as long as you don't smear it around too much it's pretty full coverage, I only used one layer. It does absolutely transfer even if you sit it with powder. It DOES STAIN, however. I used a good makeup remover to get as much off as I could last night, then showered this morning and washed my face with a deep cleanser, and there's still some slight staining around my mouth and eyebrows. It is difficult to remove. Even with the makeup remover I had to scrub pretty hard because of how thick the paint is. If you have sensitive skin, you won't have a good time lol. Overall these sticks are worth the money, although I was a bit shocked that after a few years since I bought my last one, I came back to find the price of these paints had more than doubled. I bought a white one a few years ago and I believe it was around $7, and I paid $17 for this one. That being said, they work great and I'd absolutely recommend them for a good face paint.

This is amazing for costumes, it doesn’t make my skin feel thick, it has a weight like a regular foundation. I should’ve gotten the mehron setting powder because it does transfer (as expected) and it will collect in areas (my neck primarily). The coverage is great, I didn’t have to do any extra passes and the consistency is kinda like lipstick but feels light on the skin. It came off pretty easy with my ELF makeup remover balm but it will stain your skin a bit, I had a pink tint to my skin after removing it (that’s expected it’s bright red) but using witch hazel and cotton pads helped take the leftover tint off!

I layered it on thick and used setting powder and it stayed pretty well! 4stars because if you scratch or rub areas with the paint, it comes off a little too easily. My nose was itchy, and every spot my fingernail touched erased the color. Wish it were a little more durable. Other than that, it applies very nicely, has a great pigment, and has buildable coverage. It feels pretty oily when you first apply, but the more setting powder you cake on, the more it dries up. I used this darker green mixed with the ogre green in these photos!

I went to the Shrek Rave last night and the first pic is is after the rave, and the second pic is before the rave! It looks literally the same as before, and I was sweating and dancing so much! Application: The lighting is a but different in the photos, but you can really tell it didn’t smudge or drip away, but of course I had to bake and seal my makeup. The application was so easy, you just glide the stick on and then blend with either a brush or sponge. I found a brush was good for the base coat, and then a sponge was great for the contour and little details. I was surprised at how much product was still left over by the time I was done. A little goes a long way with this stuff, and this is green so I can only imagine a more pigmented color such as dark blue or a nice red would just glide over the skin. I did have to apply two coats but that’s because I didn’t put enough on the first time… I was feeling a little nervous haha. Regardless, it was super easy, took me like an hour to get ready to leave. Some other oil paints are a pain to even apply evenly, but this stuff is literally like magic. Seriously. A big fluffy blending brush is all you need to make yourself look airbrushed and fantastical. Clean up: I would say it’s very easy to wash off, and so far I haven’t had any issues with it staining and I use white face towels! My skin didn’t stain, and I was especially worried about SMEARING. I usually encounter a problem with smearing while cleaning off oil based paint, but this stuff came right off with some warm soapy water. However, I want to mention I am a SWEATER!! I literally sweat like I am damp from jumping in the pool with all my clothes on, and yet this paint still lasted me almost SIX FREAKING HOURS!!!! HOLY COW Y’ALL!! Side Note: I have extremely sensitive skin and I was worried this would irritate me, because some other popular brand name oil based paints usually bother me extremely, but Mehron does not bother me one bit. No itching, dry skin, burning eyes… no watery eye boogers, no acne flare up, nothing!! Mehron even offers a sensitive skin option but I don’t feel the need to opt for that since their original formula is already so gentle, yet long lasting and resistant. Overall: Amazing and excellent pick if you’re wanting an oil based body paint. Incredible application, looks brilliant and the color is fantastic, and the clean up was delightful. I can not wait to get more colors and do more fun looks. I am relatively new to cosplay makeup, but this is a product for beginners AND professionals! Anyone can use it and make it look good with just a little bit of know-how. Thank you Mehron for making such a valuable product!

This black makeup cream stick worked perfectly for my Halloween look! The formula is smooth, easy to apply, and super buildable — I could layer it for deep color or blend it out for softer shading. It stayed in place all night once I set it with translucent powder, no smudging or fading. It’s also great for quick touch-ups and detail work since it glides on evenly. Definitely a solid choice for costume makeup or creative looks that need strong color and staying power! Keep in mind these pictures are from two different nights after hours of wear.

This facepaint is a good temporary replacement for when you run out of more better quailty facepaint but there's a lot of issues, it's harder to apply and takes a very long time to dry, when you think you've waited enough time, around 20 minutes, and go to apply another layer, it's not ready and comes right off, if there's even a slight drop more than it needs when adding another layer of the paint, the original, dry layer becomes wet and comes right off, not great when you're walking to an convention for even 5 minutes and break out in sweat. It is very easy to wash off at least and it doesn't feel patchy or itchy, nor does it make you break out.

Very good quality easy to apply with a blending sponge. Used it for Halloween costume

Very potent color, easy to apply, quite easy to erase! Amazed by this brand!

10/10 in terms of goth makeup. wears super light, survives raves/parties/benders/etc, and easy to set so that it doesn't smudge and stays all night. great coverage with only one layer needed, cream and powder products sit comfortably over it. honestly nothing negative to say lol this bat is super happy. Like with most foundations thooo it's at least for my mixed skintype super important to use a moisturizer and primer and ofc a fixing powder and setting spray. imo it's a foundation hard to mess up!

Aún no he probado el producto. Le doy una estrella porque ha llegado abierto y sin tapón.

Ho truccato dei clown per uno shooting fotografico e ho usato questo cerone, rimasta molto soddisfatta! Ottima coprenza e anche durata, nonostante fosse caldino... consigliato!
