Mermaid Fantasy 12 Colour Palette
- The paint is activated by water, ya know, good old H2O! Add some water to your brush and stir the paint into a creamy consistency. The thicker the paint, the more opacity! Want more of a colour wash/ add more water.
- Use a brush, sponge or even fingers to apply the colour to the skin. Colours can be mixed straight from the cakes as well as on the skin, but do it before it dries completely.
- The paint will darken slightly once dry. If you need to lighten any colour just add white!
- To remove- I recommend jumping in the shower and giving your skin a good scrub with soap and water because makeup wipes just don’t cut it mate. Some colours with a red pigment may stain slightly so just be aware. Patch test if in doubt.
- Clean your brushes with soap and water after each use.
- Store paints in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight.
- The metallic shades are a special formula and work best for details. Activate using a generous amount of water and mix until a creamy consistency has formed.
Tips and tricks-
I find the paints go best onto clean, dry skin.
They are buildable but make sure you apply in thin layers to keep the flexibility of the paint.
Once the paint is dry, you can highlight areas with creams and eyeshadows for contours. They work really well together and help to create a lot of dimension in your look.
For splattering effects, apply more water to the mix and flick with a toothbrush!
I have used them to colour my hair also, for my blondies, just be careful of potential staining
I have been using them as graphic liner for my beauty looks. Make sure the paint is a creamy consistency in order to glide over the skin and apply with a small detail brush. Keep paint away from the inner and outer corner of the eyes and not to be used on the waterline. Watery eyes= game over.
OIL-BASED PAINTS- Let me tell you how to use them-
- The bottom row is oil-based so does not need water to activate. Warm up onto the back of your hand or mixing palette to create a creamy consistency. These paints blend and mix beautifully together so customising a colour is very easy. Mix on the skin or palette. The thicker the paint, the more opacity!
- Use a brush, sponge or even fingers to apply the colour to the skin. Colours can be mixed straight from the cakes as well as on the skin.
- This product DOES NOT DRY on its own and needs to be set with powder. Eyeshadow, translucent powder, baby powder works.
- To remove- I recommend jumping in the shower and giving your skin a good scrub with soap and water because makeup wipes just don’t cut it mate. Some colours with a red pigment may stain slightly so just be aware. Patch test if in doubt. If staining occurs, use an exfoliating glove. It will come off eventually
- Clean your brushes with soap and water. If product is stubborn, oil-based cleanser or basic cooking oil works a treat.
- Store paints in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight.
