The small ones are more portable and require no setup, while large ones are heavier, break more easy and takes time setting up, but gives the child the best view of their designs.

Do you use one small for showing at they have finished and then send them to a big one?

Makes comparing sizes and prices a bit difficult! I think I am down to the Paradise - either the 30 sampler palette, or the 12 build your own. Any advice between the 2. I already have a Paradise tropical palette, and will get a powder palette. What size exactly are the cases for the 2 above palettes? I cannot find dimensions on any website. Thank you!!

I don't get it? is it just the humidity? (It's very humid here) my FX and Paradise is not gummy at all. The only other thing I could think of is maybe my paint is old? adding more water just makes it worse..I have to wipe the top layer off with a paper towel but even then when rewetting my brushes are making dents in the cakes.it's like they are half melted is the best way to describe it..it is in the 80's in my house..should I try putting them in the freezer?

So with the grimas pure being not so good, i'm gonna order some paints out of the US - I think I'd like to get myself some paradise... can anyone recommend colours that they do particularly well?

I think I read on here that the 'mango' is nice, anything else? I've got Wild Orchid which is beautiful when added to metallic white

thanks so much!]]> Face Painting Kit Thu, 10 Jun 2010 02:22:21 GMT http://www.facepaintforum.com/face-painting-kit-f5/paradise-colour-recommendations-t2543.htm#31005 http://www.facepaintforum.com/face-painting-kit-f5/paradise-colour-recommendations-t2543.htm http://www.facepaintforum.com/face-painting-kit-f5/starblends-question-t2783.htm aprilmoonflower
I want some because some days it's just too hot for paint. Are these a good for humidity?

Can they be used wet and/ dry? if you wet the cake can you let it dry and use it dry again or ?

Todays temp was over 100. My snaz paints have all turned to a gloppy mess. It is as if they've melted (which I have to tell you in this heat, I've been melting and I couldn't blame them) Could someone tell me if they are salvageable and are they still safe to use? I currently have them uncovered sitting on my kitchen table in hopes they would turn back to there usuall consistancy. Thx in advance for any advice!

The thread turned into a very informative comparison about palette cases that are available. I am in the market for one now. I already have two Mehron cases and I love them but I don't have 12 empty Paradise containers to put my paint in. I can't justify buying 12 paradise paints just so I can use the case either. I don't really use that many paradise colors. I have plenty of Diamond FX and Snaz empties. If anyone ...
