The yellow used to have a short shelf life, but I notice there is no mention of those any more, so not sure if it changed. I always wondered shannon, what happened when it went "off"? Clumpy? Smells? Changed color?

Yellow is usually a somewhat volatile pigment... I wonder what made it more delicate.

All of the above... it reaked, was separating and lost some of its brightness.

I bought it quite a few years ago... so it was when yellow had a short shelf life BUT NO ONE TOLD ME! So I was not happy.

I had been using Dinair for years and years and never had an issue with any of it going "off"... so was very annoyed with the Graftobian. I should only have ordered enough to try rather than restocking BUT when I do a show I need LOTS to get through a run... used SOME of the flesh tones then had to toss as there was a long period between uses and by then things were going bad...

Shannon, Is Dinair a hybrid, how does it hold up to sweat?

Dinar is pure water based. Never had any trouble with it. I didn't face paint or do tatts with it, purely for theatre use and no probs with sweating. It held up very well.
