Mehron Makeup Spirit Gum & Remover Combo Kit | Spirit Gum Adhesive and Remover | Professional Cosmetic Glue for Face, Skin, & Body

Let me start off by saying I'm a cosplayer and Mehron products have always been dependable. I can pretty regularly blindly buy something and trust that it's going to work.Spirit Gum is no exception to that rule; I know a lot of people express having trouble with it, but application technique goes a long way! My advice is to make sure you clean the area first with an alcohol wipe (make sure your hands are clean, too). Then use the applicator to apply and spread the Spirit Gum on the desired area and give it a little bit of time to partially dry. Next, take your finger and lightly dab it, just enough to warm the product up and make it tacky and just lightly enough that you don't smear or remove the product. Then it's ready to stick!Most recently, I've used this product to stick an LED on my face for a Detroit: Become Human cosplay, and it stayed on for the entire convention, through heat and sweat. It also came off nice and easy with the spirit gum remover!I have sensitive skin, so I will note that the spirit gum makes my skin a bit red after application. However, I do not experience burning or breakouts after, which is HUGE because there are a lot of products I can't use due to my sensitivities!I also want to point out that the small bottle is the perfect size to pocket and keep on you during conventions while cosplaying for quick emergency fixes.

Didn't hold through a lot of sweat but was very strong and durable

Bought this for Halloween. I haven't used it yet.

Works great. Mehron products are always dependable. I have used them often in theater for several costume. This glue works well for lace wigs, beards, mustaches, airy chests, you name it. You only need a small amount and it works.

Worked well with holding on Shrek's nose for the school performance. It didnt work well on top of makeup and i noticed it held better when i went over his skin with an alcohol wipe first (just the area i was applying the glue) and it held pretty well for the entire play. It came off easy too using the remover. I was able to use the same nose for 3 nights which was great.

The Mehron Makeup Spirit Gum & Remover Combo kit arrived early (that is always a bonus in my book). I guess I need a stronger glue as my prosthetic I wanted to use doesn't have a lot of surface to stick to but has a little weight to it. I did appreciate that my skin was not irritated from the gum. I didn't use the remover solution, as just soap and water removed the residue left behind. I won't comment on the remover solution as I didn't use it.

Solid hold of stage facial hair pieces; holds up through sweat and lasts all day

This really works it helped. Keep my fake nose rings on and I have oily skin and my skin is very oily especially with makeup on and this kept my nose ring on for over 12 hours.
