Yellow Face Paint

Look through this range and you'll notice most of it is split cakes rather than solid yellow blocks. That's because yellow rarely stands alone on a face: it sits next to orange for a tiger, next to black for a bee, or blends into a sunset for a fairy design.

When you do need a solid yellow

For a sunflower centre, a superhero emblem or a full lion mane base, reach for a plain cake instead of a split. The TAG Body Art Face Paint Cake 32g - Yellow gives an even, bright wash, and Diamond FX 30g Face Paint Cake - Essential Yellow carries slightly more pigment for logos and emblems that need to stay solid under a black outline.

Getting stripes and blends right

For tigers, bees and lions, load a flat brush from a split cake so yellow and black, or yellow and orange, sit side by side and lay down in one stroke rather than three separate colours fighting each other. Fusion Body Art Face Paint Cake Prime - Bright Yellow 32g and the warmer Fusion Body Art Face Paint Cake Prime - Marigold Yellow 32g both work well as the yellow half of a hand mixed blend if you'd rather build your own split on a palette.

Book Week and footy days

Book Week lions and bees, and footy face paint in club colours, both drive steady demand for this shelf. Browse our Fusion Body Art range for more split options, TAG 30g split cakes for ready mixed blends, or green face paint if your design is heading towards a frog instead.
