Mehron Makeup Pro FX Bruise Wheel — 5-Color Cream Palette for Realistic Bruise & Healing Effects (Face & Body)

Mehron Makeup Pro FX Bruise Wheel is a five-color professional cream palette designed to build realistic bruise and healing effects for stage, film, cosplay, and Halloween looks.

The Pro FX Bruise Wheel by Mehron Makeup combines richly pigmented cream shades in one compact wheel so you can create fresh, aged, and healing bruises with seamless blends. Stage-tested by industry professionals, the formula is crafted for long wear, easy blending, and usage on both face and body. The palette simplifies special effects routines by grouping the essential red, maroon, blue, yellow, and green tones in a single, portable application tool.

How do I create realistic bruise layers with this palette?

Start with the bright red to indicate fresh trauma, then deepen the center with maroon and dark blue to add depth. Use green and yellow to simulate bruises that are breaking down and healing; these tones help neutralize and age the effect when blended at the edges.

• Use red for initial fresh color and vascular detail.
• Layer maroon and blue for depth and shadow.
• Apply yellow and green lightly to mimic healing stages.
• Set with a translucent powder to reduce shine and extend wear.

What tools and setting products work best with this cream makeup?

The cream texture works well with brushes, sponges, and stipple tools; choose the tool that matches the scale and texture you want. To lock the effect in place for performances or long shoots, finish with a setting powder and an optional barrier spray designed for theatrical makeup.

• Synthetic brushes for precise edges and veins.
• Stipple sponge for texture and broken skin appearance.
• Mehron Colorset Powder or translucent powder to mattify and set.
• Barrier spray for extra hold in humid or active conditions.
