Product details

Bright, water-activated split cake face paint kit with 24 colors, brushes, sponges, and stencils for safe, easy kids' face art.

Blue Squid’s Face Painting Kit provides a complete, ready-to-use set for creative play, parties, and seasonal dress-up. The compact kit contains six split cakes (24 vibrant hues), two brushes, two blending sponges, and stencils plus a quick-start guide — everything families need to make bold, washable designs without specialist tools or harsh removers.

How fast and simple is it to start painting?

Getting started takes seconds: add a little water to a brush or sponge, swirl across a split cake, and apply. The formula reactivates instantly so you can layer or blend colors without long drying waits.

  • Water-activated split cakes — wet once and paint multiple areas.
  • Wide brush for base coverage and fine brush for details.
  • Sponges included for smooth gradients and quick full-face coverage.
  • Stencils and guidebook for beginner-friendly motifs.

Are the paints safe for children’s skin?

These paints are formulated for sensitive skin and follow common cosmetic safety standards. They’re water-based, non-toxic, and free from parabens; the set is vegan and cruelty-free to reduce irritation risks when used as directed.

  • Cosmetic-grade pigments chosen for mildness and high payoff.
  • Paraben-free and non-toxic ingredients suitable for temporary face art.
  • Washable with soap and warm water — no strong removers required.
  • Follow patch-test and manufacturer guidelines for extra caution.

What designs can kids create with this set?

The palette includes rainbow-bright shades ideal for many classic children’s looks, from animals to fantasy characters. Stencils plus the two brush sizes make creating consistent shapes easy, while the sponges speed up larger areas like cheeks or full-face rainbows.

  • One-stroke rainbow applications from the split cakes for instant gradient effects.
  • Butterflies, tigers, superheroes, and Halloween looks made simple with stencils.
  • Layerable pigments mean bold lines and soft blends in the same design.
  • Tools and guidebook help beginners replicate popular party styles.

How do I clean the paint off afterwards?

Cleanup is designed to be straightforward: most paint lifts with a washcloth, mild soap, and warm water. Because the formula is water-soluble, you won’t need solvents, and regular detergent removes pigment without harsh rubbing.

  • Soap and warm water remove color in minutes.
  • No strong chemical removers required for typical use.
  • Test delicate areas first and blot instead of scrubbing when possible.
  • Follow care instructions to keep brushes and sponges in good condition.

Who this kit is for: Blue Squid’s 24-color split cake face paint kit is aimed at families, party hosts, classroom activities, and beginner artists who want an accessible, safe, and colorful way to decorate faces. It’s particularly useful for parents looking to create memorable kids’ parties, teachers running craft days, or anyone wanting washable, vibrant makeup for Halloween, festivals, and playtime.
