Is this face paint safe for kids?

It is a cosmetic cream stick, not a dedicated children's face paint line. Patch-test on the inner arm first, and keep it away from eyes and broken skin.

How do I stop it from clumping?

Start with clean, dry skin and apply thin layers, blending each with your fingers before adding more. Heavy layers on damp or oily skin are what cause clumping.

How long does it last?

The wax formula is made to stay put through an evening, but sweat, oil and touching will wear it. Set it lightly with powder if you need it to hold longer.

Does it come off easily?

Yes. Warm water and a mild cleanser or oil-based makeup remover lift it. Wash before it dries hard on the skin.

Can I use it in my hair?

The maker says it can go on hair as well as skin. It is harder to wash out of hair, so test a small strand first.

Is one stick enough for a full face?

For a skull or clown look, one stick covers a face with some to spare. Full-body or group painting needs more than one.

Our take on the Face Paint Stick

A twist-up cream face paint stick in white, built on beeswax and mineral fat with vitamin E added for moisture. The stick format is the main draw: you rotate out the cream and blend it with your fingers, so there is no brush or palette to carry. It suits Halloween, festivals, carnival and costume makeup, and kids' face painting at home. Compared with greasepaint palettes it is simpler and cleaner to apply, but a single white stick covers far less than a multi-color kit, and cream sticks can smudge and transfer on oily or sweaty skin.
