Greater than one weekI’ve used Mehron products for halloween makeup before, and I really do like this brand. I used this bruise kit for a halloween costume this year, and I love it!! I had prosthetic cut-off horns on my forehead and wanted it to look more real like they were actually protruding from my head. The colors blend so easily onto natural skin and liquid latex! I used a porous sponge that I tore up and just lightly stippled various colors around the horns. I started with yellow, then added a little tiny bit of green, then used the red and brown color mixed together and topped it off with a little stage blood. It lasted all night!!

> 3 dayThis color wheel was perfect for creating the bruised, irritated look (around and on the lacerations) that I was going for! No need to reapply however I do use a setting spray after applying my costume makeup. Makeup is creamy and goes on smooth. Good quality makeup for a low cost is the way to go.

> 3 dayThis wheel is the perfect colors for bruises and nasty-looking sores! I bought it to make up some wait staff as zombies for a restaurant zombie themed Halloween night. The colors I used the most were black, yellow and green. I used it on 5 wait staff and made myself up twice with it and still had plenty left over! It doesnt take much. Make up stayed on all night, even in hot kitchen, and washed off easily with soap and warm water.

> 3 dayI LOVE THIS. Love this. As far as FX makeup goes, with everything Ive tried, this was the best. Shipping was fast, it arrived a day earlier than expected, which was great because that gave me some more time to practice with it before Halloween. It came packaged nicely, securely, and totally intact. I made a liquid latex zombie mouth prosthetic for Halloween this year. The wheel is decently sized, a little larger than my palm. It contained enough of every color for me to not only paint my prosthetic, but to have more than enough left over to do some stuff on my face and such as well. The green and yellow colors are pretty vibrant, but are easily dulled down by blending out or adding some black in along with them. The makeup applies smoothly, and dried on the latex and doesnt come off the latex without soap and water, (which is great) but is removable from the skin with a makeup remover wipe. The only vices with this product are these - If you sweat a *lot*, its going to come off. I applied it to my nose and it started coming off after about twenty minutes. I fixed this by taking a bit of anti perspirant (gross I know, but it worked) on my nose before putting on the makeup. That worked better. Obviously, any makeup does this. Just a warning and what worked for me. Be prepared. The second is this - I wouldnt advise using your day to day make up brushes with this product. Applying my makeup yesterday, I realized I was still getting green from the wheel on my face along with my eyeliner. So either be prepared to clean really well, or use brushes you dont like so much (or ones for FX use.) All in all, great product. Would totally buy this again. (And hey, I might, next Halloween.)

Greater than one weekThe colors were great for the bruise affect but the makeup itself seemed cheap only bc it kept flaking, therefore could easily look “fake”.

> 3 dayThis bruise wheel has been so much fun to play with! I had been using only Snazaroo face paints before I got this bruise wheel and I was blown away by how nicely the cream makeups blend and layer. The colors on this bruise wheel are so perfect for both old and new bruises, my preference being new bruises. I love the dark red and blue colors so much I actually use them for other makeups than have nothing to do with bruises :) These have a cool under the skin effect when used underneath liquid foundation and also work really well on gelatin prosthetics.

Greater than one weekThis stuff is fun. Super easy to use even for a beginner like me. Right out of the box I had a cool looking bruise just playing around with the different colors. There is also directions to help you out. Planning on using this for some zombie makeup.

> 3 dayAll you need is a picture of a bruise to make it look REAL real. You have all the colors you need, easy application and you make need a powder to set it for longevity. It is oil based so it’ll smear without powder on top! Love this palette for gore. I never figured out the best way to apply so I usually use my fingers, still looks good.

> 3 dayBought for a Halloween costume; needed to approximate disfigured skin. So far, I have only managed to make myself look like a burn victim, but thats my shortcoming rather than the make-ups. Will continue practicing. Would recommend, especially for the price. Container is a decent size and a little goes a surprisingly long way.
