I am as far from a makeup artist as a person can get. This makeup is beyond forgiving – it’s idiot-proof.You have to mix powder with liquid fixative, then apply with a brush. If you don’t get the proportions just so, you’re okay – it’ll work fine. It goes on as easily as anything you can paint. You could probably use sponges or fingers.The coverage is pretty opaque straightaway, but if your mix was a bit thin, don’t worry, because it’s buildable and you can keep painting until you reach solid coverage. Guess how I know. Also, a little goes a LONG way. I’ll be able to get a dozen Halloween costumes out of one little package.Once this stuff dries, it REALLY stays put, but it washes off easily with soap and water or facial towels. Unless you’re planning to wear this to a car wash, it will NOT come off before you mean it to.Here’s how I know how nice this stuff is:It was mixed and applied by my half-drunk brother who has never done anything makeup-related in his life (he’s an artist though and did a nice job since it’s hard for me to paint my own face). It was applied over light foundation, without washing my face, all around my eyes, forehead, and nose – all the really greasy, sweaty bits of my face. I also put it on my lips. I tend to touch my face and lick my lips a lot. As soon as it dried, we went to see a live staging of Rocky Horror Picture Show. I had a few drinks. I moved around and sweated a lot. I got damp from squirt gun fire. I fully expected the makeup to have worn off or smudged or cracked or streaked somewhat, but it didn’t – not even on my lips. Everything looked exactly like it did when applied. I was flabbergasted.When we got home, I wiped my face down with some Costco-brand face towelettes, and it came right off like it knew its work was done. It was easier to remove than regular old eyeshadow. Two towelettes, and you’d never have known I’d worn it.This stuff is impressive. Get it. Use it. Sparkle!

I absolutely loved this!! I used it to pain myself for a New Years Eve masquerade and I was a H I T! Everyone simply called me ‘Goddess’ and it was so fun!The only reason I give 4 stars is because I didn’t realize there was actually metal in this, and I’m allergic to most metals. I think it goes without saying I wasn’t as pretty once I took it off and found red, blotchy skin 😱Anyways, I was able to paint from my hips up with one bottle of pigment and liquid; sadly I forgot my second container, so i roughed it out with bare legs lolOverall a great product, but be aware of the metal in it!

HOLY. CRAP. Mehron customer for life is all I have to say! My friend used this product a couple years ago to paint my models fingers for a fashion show, and for a convention this month I decided to take the plunge and get some for the extra metallic look I wanted. I wore it for roughly 7 hours to parties and it didn’t budge, but I wasn’t really sweating or anything, but I was drinking and it stayed! You barely have to use any of it to get incredibly attractive and pigmented color. The mixing liquid is alcohol based, so it will start to evaporate if you let it sit, but just mix little tiny bits at a time and you’ll be just fine. Also WAY easier to get off than any of my other gold makeup. GET IT.

I was BLOWN away by this powder. A little touch of the mixing liquid and it’s like painting on metal on your skin. I used it with a fine brush to make metallic looking tattoos and also for a piece of a costume. This stuff, once dry, does not smear or smudge. I even put some extra glitter on top and it worked attractively.I did test out the powder with rubbing alcohol – as someone had suggested – and it seemed to work just as well but it more likely to smear if you rub on it.The more of the liquid you use, the more runny it is. Do NOT just mix the two together. Just mix a couple drops of the liquid with a couple taps of the powder to see how it mixes. Use more as needed. A little goes a LONG way.A single bottle of powder will probably cover most of a body – a little goes a long way. For my entire chest and arms, I used very little of the jar. I could probably do my whole body twice over with one bottle

I have this in silver and copperI used the silver for my “staples” for Dabi from my Hero Academia and it’s SUPER shiny and shows up perfectly in my photos and exactly how I want it to look.I want to use it for so many more things but I currently have no other uses besides Dabi, it’s so pretty! I put the powder into the cap and add a drop of the liquid and swirl and only add accordingly after so it’s not too liquidyThe copper I used on my face for nebula and I was in a rush so I used too much liquid so it was super streaky, but it still turned out super pretty in nice lighting, besides that it kinda just looked a copper orange without being too metallic if that makes sense.Overall I still suggest!!
