Abstract: A face painting device (10) comprising a housing (20) having a plurality of adjacent channels (90) is disclosed. Each channel is open at opposite ends of the housing and each channel contains a plurality of blocks (40) each supporting a solid coloured face paint (50). One of the paints in each channel is exposed at one end of the housing, and each of the blocks supporting an exposed paint can be removed and inserted into a channel at the other end of the housing thereby exposing the paint of a successive block.
