How to use Diamond FX face paint

Activate the face paint with a small amount of clean water. Spritz a fine mist onto the paint using a spray bottle, or dip a well-squeezed sponge or damp brush into the paint. Clean water keeps colours vivid and pure - use a water pot and refresh the water between colours.

Tips for a professional result

• Use the right brushes. The FBFX Face Paint Brushes are designed specifically for water-activated face paint with soft synthetic bristles that leave no fluff behind. For detail work and sharp lines, reach for the FBFX Round Face Paint Brushes.
• Use the right sponge. For covering large areas, use a Yellow Face Paint Sponge. Latex foam sponges are not suitable for water-activated face paint.
• Keep your water clean. A water pot with fresh water next to your workstation prevents colours from muddying or going dull.
• Barrier layer for sensitive skin or intense colours. Apply a thin layer of Marley Skin first. This barrier makes removal easier and prevents staining with highly pigmented shades like this neon orange.

How to remove Diamond FX face paint

Remove the face paint with mild, non-moisturising soap and cool to lukewarm water. Hot water opens the pores and lets pigment sink deeper into the skin - avoid this. Gently work the soap in and rinse thoroughly. Repeat until all the paint is gone.

For a cleaner, quicker removal without scrubbing:

• Diamond FX Skin Soap - specially developed for removing Diamond FX face paint
• Remover Towel - a damp cloth that removes paint in one wipe, ideal at events and kids' parties where you paint many faces in a row

Frequently asked questions

Why are there sometimes small cracks in the face paint?

Large temperature changes during storage or transport can cause the wax to expand and contract, leading to surface cracks. They usually disappear on their own once you start using the paint. There is no effect on quality or shelf life.

Is Diamond FX Neon safe for children?

Yes, Diamond FX Neon is hypoallergenic, fragrance-, paraben- and lanolin-free, gluten-free and contains no animal ingredients. Neon is special-effects pigmentation and skin-safety tested, but not classified as FDA cosmetic-compliant for everyday use - use it for UV/blacklight effects rather than daily cosmetic wear. Always do a patch test 24 hours in advance for sensitive skin.

How many faces can you paint with 30 grams?

A 30 gram pot covers approximately 10 to 15 full faces, depending on layer thickness and technique.

What is the difference between Essential, Metallic and Neon?

Essential is matte base face paint. Metallic has a glossy shimmer finish. Neon colours glow under UV/blacklight - Neon Blue, Violet and White are semi-transparent under regular light and only become truly vivid under UV/blacklight; the other Neon colours are opaque and bold under regular light too.

Can you apply Diamond FX on top of other colours?

Yes, that is one of its strengths. The wax base and high pigmentation ensure the top colour covers without the underlying colour showing through. Product photos are taken under professional daylight lamps without colour editing. Colours may vary slightly depending on your screen settings.
