Face Paint Splitcakes & One Stroke Cakes

Split cakes, also known as one strokes, are cakes of face paint divided into several colours side by side. A 30 gram split cake is typically about one inch across, so you load a one inch flat brush and sweep all the colours at once for petals, swirls and feathers. Wider 50 gram split cakes suit a sponge for backgrounds and full face designs. Many painters collect a whole range of face paint split cakes in different colour combinations.
