This was everything I hoped it would be! You use these kind of like those kids water color paint palettes: get some water on a brush and agitate that into the dry makeup cake. This kit comes with a brush that's good for most general work, but you may prefer to invest in an assortment of brushes for detailed work or a larger brush or sponge for more broad application of product. This product dried very quickly on my skin, and I could mix the colors to meet my needs (but you might want to do that on a separate surface or on the mirror in the kit if you want to keep the color cakes pristine). On that note this palette does come with a very nice and very large mirror. I did a test of the makeup (I attached a photo) and wore it for an hour. I put makeup on my face and chest and just moving around the house the makeup held up well. Afterwards it washed off easily with soap and water as advertised. I have sensitive skin but had no reaction to this product.
Some extra things to note:
In addition to the Mehron makeup/paint in this look, I did achieve some shading with and eyeshadow on top of the dried paint (although some shading was done with the paint as well).
I used eyeliner to line my eyes rather than bringing the face paint right up to my lashline, just to be safe.
This look was sealed with a makeup setting spray.
Despite setting the makeup, I would caution that this makeup is probably not the best for situations where you might be sweating a lot (like an outdoor fair) since sweat will break this makeup down (these are water activated paints/makeup).
The instructions for this palette recommend to not use the red, yellow, or orange around the eyes and to not use the blue or green on the lips. To be safe it might be prudent to use regular cosmetics in those areas if you needs those colors. Option: At the time that I'm writing this NYX has a colorful eyeshadow palette called ULTIMATE in USP04 BRIGHTS that is pigmented and affordable (in my opinion).
I recommend always testing the product before the particular event you are planning for if possible, just to make sure the product is compatible with your skin and works the way you want it to.
Amazon experience: at the time I'm writing this Amazon is fulfilling the orders of this product. The first palette I received was completely busted and broken (shattered mirror and all). I called Amazon and they very quickly worked with me to fix the issue. The second palette they sent me was perfect.

This was my first time trying this type of face/body paint and I was so impressed! The pigment is so vibrant and did not feel cakey or crusty! We both have 2 coats of paint on with some feathering of baby powder and then a generous amount of setting spray. I will definitely be using this brand again and again!

I had clients coming in for blacklight photoshoots, and this paint works better than anything else I've tested.

There are a few cracks in the paint but nothing was completely like broken i think its just like that cause its like a paint like eyeshadow like pallet. Its really not bad at all espeshully since its going to blend together anyways when you use it. Im still very pleases to receive it with in 1 day. Happy purchase 😊 i will be using this make up for HHN this year 🤭😈

amazing, this product has held on since I bought it, doesn't ich
easy to remove
