Which animal and shimmer looks can you create with Nut Brown?

Nut Brown is the go-to shade for realistic fur tones. Think tigers, lions, bears, and deer - any animal look that needs a warm, earthy base with a natural shimmer. The bronze quality also makes it useful for goddess looks, warm contour effects, and festival face art.

Because the shimmer is subtle rather than glittery, it reads as a natural sheen on the skin rather than a costume effect. That makes it versatile for both children's party face painting and more elaborate theatrical looks.

When do you choose this shade over a matte brown?

Choose Nut Brown Shimmer when you want warmth and dimension in one step. A matte brown gives solid coverage; this shade adds a gentle glow that catches the light and brings the look to life without needing a separate highlighter on top.

It works particularly well for tiger stripes layered over a lighter base - the shimmer adds depth to the striped pattern and makes the overall look more dynamic.

How to use it

Superstar is a water-activated face paint. Pick up colour with a damp face paint brush or sponge:

With a brush

• Wet your brush and swirl it over the paint.
• Build up thin layers for the best coverage.
• Use a round brush like the FBFX Round Face Paint Brushes Linda for fine detail work.

With a sponge

• Dampen the face paint sponge using a spray bottle to avoid over-wetting.
• Swipe the sponge across the paint and apply to the skin.
• Use a round face paint sponge or a Butterfly Sponge for an even base.

Pro tip: For a tiger look, apply a pale base first, then build Nut Brown Shimmer over the top in short, curved strokes for a realistic fur texture. Finish with dark brown or black stripes using a fine brush.

Setting and removing

Nut Brown Shimmer dries quickly and is transfer-resistant once fully dry. No additional fixative is needed for most face painting applications.

To remove, use water and mild soap. You can also use a gentle skin soap. For sensitive skin, the Wonder Towel with a little water works gently without scrubbing. Avoid baby wipes, as these can irritate the skin.

Storage

• Leave the pot open to dry fully after use.
• Store with the lid on in a cool, dark place.
