What looks can you create with Antique Gold?

Antique Gold is the go-to shade for Egyptian and pharaoh-inspired looks - think golden skin tones, elaborate headdresses, and sun god face designs. It works equally well for festive Christmas and New Year's glamour, fantasy royalty, and golden carnival or fancy dress costumes.

The shimmer catches the light from every angle, which makes it particularly effective under stage lighting or for event photography.

When do you choose Antique Gold over a matte gold?

Choose this shade when you want more than just coverage - the shimmer adds dimension and a metallic warmth that flat matte golds can't replicate. It's ideal for full-face applications like pharaoh or sun god looks, or as a highlight accent over a base colour.

Choose a matte gold if you need deep, flat coverage without any reflectivity - for example under very bright film or photography lighting where shimmer can flare. For stage work, theatre, and events, Antique Gold's shimmer is usually a feature, not a problem.

How to use it

Activate with a lightly damp FBFX Round Face Paint Brushes Linda for precise work, or a damp face paint sponge - moisten it with a spray bottle so it doesn't get too wet. Build up in thin layers for the best coverage. Use a round sponge or a Butterfly Sponge for an even base over larger areas.

Pro tip: For a pharaoh look, apply Antique Gold as a full-face base with a sponge, then define eyes and brow details with a fine round brush and black face paint. Add a second shimmer layer while the first coat is still slightly damp for extra metallic depth.

Setting and removing

Once dry, Superstar face paint is smudge-resistant without a fixative. For long events or hot conditions, a setting spray will extend wear. To remove, use water and mild soap - a gentle skin soap works well. For sensitive skin, the Wonder Towel with a little water is a soft option. Do not scrub, and avoid baby wipes - these can irritate the skin.

What can you use it for?

• Egyptian and pharaoh face designs
• Christmas and New Year's glamour looks
• Fantasy royalty and golden goddess characters
• Carnival and fancy dress golden costumes
• Stage and event face painting
• Highlight accents over other base colours
