text: the color and coverage was fine for this product, and as expected, it gets on everything as you're out and about, so be prepared to find red on your walls, car seat, friend's costumes/bodies, etc. I anticipated all this with the product and it pretty much met my expectations there. What I didn't anticipate is the difficulty with which it's put on. Admittedly, I am no make up expert so perhaps this is how all body paint/make-up is? It was very solid and hard and difficult to get on the sponge. I actually went through several sponges as they started to tear apart. Then to get from the sponge to your body was another ordeal... filled with friction on your skin as you try to apply the product. What we eventually did was to apply body lotion on the sponge to moisten the product... that helped expedite the whole process. Again, this may be how you normally use body paint/color and if so... take this review with a grain of salt because to me, this way a LOT of effort to try to cover your entire body with the product! Lol
