Face painting - but easier. No brushes, sponges, or applicators. Just pencils! Practical and precise. No sharpener included - you probably have one at home that will work - these face paint pencils are 10.5mm diameter, and thicker colouring pencils are usually up to 11mm diameter. Or a make up pencil sharpener will often have a thicker pencil slot. If not, then this one will work great.     What it contains 6 face paint pencils, each 9cm long with diameter 10.5mm in a box measuring 8cm x 13cm x 1.5 cm   Feel great about where it comes from Raw materials from Europe?

They're already doing this as each product reprints, and their most recent products are really good in this respect. So we're glad to support them, as they are so great in nearly every other aspect, and taking action on this former blind spot.
