Mehron Body and Face Paint

We asked our Colored Contacts affiliates which is their favourite Mehron paint and the majority of our MUAs always opt for the Paradise Palettes. These boldly pigmented paints have 8 colors in each palette with different themes. The Mehron Paradise Paint is easy to work with and dries smoothly so that you won’t experience any flaking. Mehron Paradise is a great starter kit for your body paint collection as you can get a range of colors in one palette. 

If you are looking for specific Mehron body paint colors then you may prefer the Mehron Color Cups. These are single color pots that feature one of Mehron’s highly pigmented creamy face paints. From grey tones to bright rainbow colors, there are a range of shades to choose from.

Mehron has put together body paint colors that achieve specific effects. For example, the Mehron bruise wheel has all the colors that you need to blend together in order to create a realistic bruise. Create different intensities of bruising with the green and purple shades. This Mehron face paint is ideal for film productions where you may need to show a bruise fading over time as the different body paint colors can achieve different stages of bruising.

If you want to create a base for your makeup whether you are into clown makeup or are creating a Halloween character, the Mehron Clown White Makeup is a great addition to your kit. Mehron clown white is akin to theatrical greasepaint with its intense coverage. It is designed to last and thanks to the ultra creamy formula, won’t crack or flake. This resilient Mehron clown makeup stands up to long nights under theatrical lights without becoming dry but is also loved by SFX makeup artists. Start by warming up the clown white makeup with your fingers before applying it to your face. If you want to be able to apply other colors and makeup on top of your clown white face, add a layer of setting powder.

SFX Mehron Makeup

Having a range of face and body paints is a staple of any creative makeup artist’s collection but if you also like to create gory SFX makeup then you may need some extra products such as fake blood. Whether you are a Halloween scare actor or horror enthusiast, creating realistic wounds and special effects is an art that is made easier with the right products.

Gone are the days of adding a splodge of red makeup to your vampire Halloween costume; Mehron has a complete range of fake blood that covers all the types of effects that you may get from an injury. Whether your fake wound requires a coagulated look or a blood splatter effect, there’s a Mehron fake blood product to achieve it. Here’s a taster of some of the types of fake blood that Mehron produces:

• Mehron Stage Blood: Stage Blood is designed to continuously drip and stay wet. The syrup-based formula is available in a range of red shades.
• Mehron Squirt Blood: Squirt blood is a water-based fake blood which means it will not be sticky and will not dry. This theatrical fake blood is available in a range of red shades and is easy to wash off due to the water-based formula.
• Mehron Blood Splatter: Blood splatter fake blood is available in a spray bottle to create blood droplets for gory effects on clothing and skin. This formula will dry over time to give a realistic wound effect that will harden and crack.

To enhance your fake wounds, start with products such as Mehron Scarring Liquid and Mehron 3D Gel. Once dry, you can add fake blood or body paint to give the Mehron Scarring Liquid the appearance of a fresh scar. This clever gel puckers the skin as it dries and is particularly successful in areas where the skin is more flexible. The Mehron 3D Gel is available in clear or blood red colors to create the desired effect. It can be used on its own or painted once dry.

The long expiry dates of Mehron makeup face paint and products give you plenty of time to use up the products but we know you will be reaching for these amazing colors time and time again. Once your makeup is expired or used up, make sure to visit again for more Mehron products. We also stock makeup from a range of other SFX makeup brands from budget-friendly to professional quality so check out the full range to find everything you need. 

With any makeup products, it is important to carry out a patch test before applying the makeup to a larger area. Apply a small amount of SFX Mehron Makeup to a patch of skin; often applying it to your arm is recommended. Check for any allergies to develop in the next 24-48 hours before using the product.
