Grimas Professional Cake Makeup

Cake makeup is a very matt base makeup applied with a damp sponge. It is simple and fast to use making it ideal for large cast shows, dance and school productions. Because it covers large areas quickly it is excellent for making up arms, legs and torso etc. The matt finish is very useful for television, film and photography and as a base for for face painting with Grimas Professional face paints.

Cake makeup is available in 35 gramme containers. This should be sufficient to cover 50-60 faces. Skilled makeup artists usually get more coverage than this.

Grimas professional cake makeup comes in a very large range of colours including black, white, off-white, grey and skin tones from light to very dark.

Cake makeup covers best if the skin is not greasy. Clean it first with Grimas Cleansing Lotion. If the skin is dehydrated or sensitive, apply a thin layer of Grimas undermakeup base after cleansing and leave it 3-5 minutes to absorb before applying the Cake makeup.

Do not use any greasy creams under Cake makeup. They will make the makeup streaky. The makeup is water based and is applied with a damp sponge. Once the cake makeup has dried, which it does very quickly, use Grimas eyeshadow/rouge for highlight, shading and blusher.
