Mehron Makeup ProColoRing Bruise 5 Color Wheel for Special Effects & Movies | Bruise Makeup Kit | SFX Paint | Halloween Special Effects Makeup

Applied once to make a bruise and it lasted all night! Didn’t have to do any touch ups! Super easy to use and makes a dang real looking bruise!

I love all Mehron products, its pretty small for the price but its great quality so you get what you pay for and the colors are just right! Anxious to do some Halloween looks!

I only use mehron products for sfx work and this is one of my absolute favorite wheels. Its easy to apply, easy to take off, and offers every color needed for realistic bruises. People usually think theyre real! Its not bad for beginners either as long as you look up bruise healing stages to make sure your colors are accurate for the bruise youre trying to replicate. Its also inexpensive for the quality.

This bruise wheel is great for basic sfx makeup use or for a Halloween costume. I bought this to do sfx makeup for a friends short film, and so far Ive had a great experience with it. The color applies smooth and blends well; the payoff could be a little bit stronger, but overall its really easy to layer the color to make it more opaque. Because these colors are cream based, they do smear a bit, and the staying power isnt the best. I recommend setting with either Mehron Colorstay powder or some regular translucent powder (e.l.f. makes a great one.) Before you use this product, you might want to wipe down the area youre applying it to with some rubbing alcohol or non-oil based makeup remover, as Ive noticed that having oils on your skin beforehand can cause the product to smear a bit. My only slight tick is that the cream color base can seem, at times, to sit on top of the skin, which can ruin the realistic effect youre going for, but with enough blending, thin layers, and a dusting of powder, this isnt a huge issue. If youre really worried about full realism, look into alcohol-activated dry pigments. Overall, Im very pleased with this product. Ive used other bruise wheels before and various other cream based makeups and this has some of the best color payoff and smoothest formula Ive seen so far. Works great when applied with a dry makeup sponge or brushes. This is the perfect product if youre looking for something a little easier to use than Ben Nyes bruise wheel or if youre staring a basic sfx makeup kit; for heavy-duty makeup, like for a theater production or prolonged photoshoot, I would recommend an alcohol-activated bruise palette. Still, this wheel great product to have on hand.

Super fun to play with and a great price, would recommend

I felt like it worked really well for our zombie faces. I watched a few tutorials to help me out because I am no makeup artist. But it did what it was supposed to and did NOT feel to heavy or thick. It also didnt completely dry out my skin nor cause me to break out. Washed of easily with my regular face wash.

This creme makeup is so easy to use to create bruises, sores, burns, and more. Im an SFX makeup newbie, but was able to do a lot with this palette, and a little bit goes a long way. Youre gonna need sponges and stipple pads and brushes, but otherwise this wheel covers a lot of bases.

There were a bunch of pallets on amazon that looked just like this one. However this was the one with the most positive reviews so i figured id give it a try. Well, in my mind i assumed it would be similar to face paint and be quite difficult to blend out. However, i was surprisingly happy to see that the colors are highly pigmented, and go on really well. They also blend really well so you can create realistic looking bruises. The colors are also all pretty nice for bruises! My favorite color was the green, because it gave off this gnarly zombie-bruise look. Definitely a must have for anyone looking to do some special FX makeup!

Its easy to use, the instructions are on the back, its great for beginners and if you know how to use it right it comes out even better! Love it, 10/10 would recommend

Bought 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.
