Makeup used: Disguise Stix

Pro Paint™ vs Disguise Stix

For quite some time now, in fact since 1978 to be exact, Graftobian has been manufacturing Disguise Stix Makeup.  These Stix are an easy to use, non-toxic, soap-based, temporary coloring for skin and hair, and are also ideal for children.

Disguise Stix

Recently, Graftobian has added ProPaint™ for face and body painting to the collection.  ProPaint™ has a glycerin-based formula and works up a rich, creamy texture when activated by water.

ProPaint™

So what's the difference?

Price- Disguise Stix are a fun and inexpensive way for beginners to learn how to face and/or body paint. They're affordable in both the regular, mini sizes, and dishes.  ProPaint™ costs a bit more in price and is available in only one size.  Regular Disguse Stix: 1/8 oz of product. ProPaint™:  1 oz of product.

Base- Disguise Stix are a mild soap-based paint and are intended for children.  They wash off easily with soap and water. Can also be removed from clothing, bathtub walls, rubber duckies, etc. ProPaint™ has a glycerin-based formula for unbeatable pigmentation and coverage. It lasts a bit longer on the skin.

Water Activated- Both of these paints are water activated. Simply dip the Stix in a cup of water and load the paint up onto a dry sponge. If the sponge is too wet, the coloring will be weak. ProPaint™ works up a rich creamy texture when activated by water. Take a sponge or brush, dip in water and lather onto the ProPaint™.

Fragrance: Both are fragrance-free!


Which one would you get? ProPaint  or Disguise Stix ?

Blood, Blood, or Blood: What's the Difference?

Graftobian has a number of bloods to choose from.  Choosing one may seem rather daunting, but behold the choices; we have several options for different bloody occasions: 



Stage Blood

This blood is a bright red, water-based product that looks exactly like fresh spurting blood! When you or another needs to simulate the act of recently being shot or wounded, Stage Blood will be your go-to blood.
Tip: Water this blood down for special squirting effects.

Stage Blood is available in six sizes.

Blood Gel

 Blood Gel is a deep red, glycerine-based blood that never dries! This stuff drips very slowly. Let's say you want to keep that bloody oozing, wet blood effect last for hours--Blood Gel will be your bloody friend.

Wash this blood off only when you're ready--use soap and water.

Blood Gel is available in three sizes. 

 
Blood Paste

Blood Paste is a firm, deep red blood that you can smear into a wound or gash. It won't move and stays wet looking.

Tip: Apply to wide areas with a stipple sponge for a splattered effect.

Blood Paste washes off only when the night is over--use soap and water.

Blood Paste is available in two sizes.


Magic Blood Powder™ 

 Magic Blood Powder™ is a water-activated powder. When it's dusted onto the skin, it appears invisible, but it when comes into contact with water, it immediately looks like road rash, a bloody cut, an arc spray of blood.

Tip: A few tablespoons to a gallon of water will yield a very economical splashing blood.  Effects made with Magic Blood Powder™ wash off with soap and water. Almost like the incident never even happened...

Magic Blood Powder™ is available in two sizes.


F/X Gelatin™ 

 F/X Gelatin™ is used to create the look of burned skin, a mangled face, or a bloody gash that just won't heal. This is the "heat and serve" of gore makeup.

Heat the bottle in a hot water bath for a few minutes until the gelatin is fluid. Test the temperature of it on your wrist to make sure it's not too hot. We strongly recommend AGAINST microwaving or boiling F/X Gelatin™.

Tip: Apply one color or mix to create your custom gore effect. Make sure it has cooled. It will stay in place and remain flexible. Add any of our blood products or F/X Blood Powder if so desired. Peel the gelatin off to remove.
