Mehron Makeup CreamBlend Stick (0.75 Ounce) (LIGHT GREY) | Made in the USA

I bought them in blue to represent Aladdin's genie and in green for Elphaba from Wicked, both very good and practical ease application . The color doesn't fade, it's strong and long-lasting.

Perfect shade of pink for my Princess Bubblegum cosplay. The product is so pigmented and covers so much with so little. It is easy to blend in, and does well with other products sitting on top of it.

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!

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.

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!

I really like the product. Foundation goes on easily from stick, smooths nicely and evenly. Stays on all day. I find I must use makeup remover before showering as my face scrub/soap does not completely remove the foundation, showing how well it lasts and stays on. The stick moves up by turning the bottom circle. You cannot make the stick go back down (so don't make it go up too far to see the color). I must say, it would be nice to be able to make the stick go back down. The color chart is inaccurate for the colors. I ordered Light 4 expecting a light biege/brown tone. What I got is a light yellow tone, completely not my coloring. The Light 4 actually looks like Light Buff, shown on the color chart. Because the price is so good for a product that works so well I am willing to try another color.

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!

Very creamy, easy to spread around, then it soaks in. I used my fingers cuz I couldn't find a brush. This is a quality makeup that goes up and down easily by turning the bottom. I got alabaster color for my pale skin. It looks nice and blends easily. I was surprised by how this lasted at the end of the day. I used to be someone who only purchased high-end makeup, but lately I've had better experiences by trying different brands on Amazon and this makeup is an example of me going ahead and being pleasantly surprised by trying something different! (I used translucent finishing powder...and no moisturizer.. ) Will buy again!
