Halloween Face Paint UK: Black, White, Palettes and Stencils on Amazon

Contains Amazon affiliate links. See Disclosure.

Need face paint for Halloween on Saturday 31 October: which water based paints, palettes and stencils are worth buying on amazon.co.uk?

The short answer: get a black and a white single colour for skeletons, ghosts and zombies, add a small palette if the kids want colour, and pick up stencils if you are not confident painting freehand. Order this week so it arrives well before the night.

Last updated: 15 October 2026

Snazaroo black face paint sits at #3 on the Amazon UK Toys and Games bestseller list this morning, with the white and a 15 colour palette also in the top 20. This is a practical UK shopping shortlist on amazon.co.uk. It does not invent prices or skin safety claims beyond what the listings state.

Black and white single colours

Most Halloween looks start with a white base and black detail. Single pots go further than a palette pan if several people are getting painted.

• Snazaroo Halloween classic face and body paint, black, listed as water based, easily washable and highly pigmented
• Snazaroo classic face and body paint, white, listed as water based, fragrance free, removable with soap and warm water, and made in England

Palettes for colour

• Snazaroo Halloween face painting palette kit, listed with 8 colours (white, black, bright red, orange, dark green, purple, dark brown and pink), a step by step guide, a brush, a sponge and stencils
• URAQT 15 colour face painting palette, listed with 2 brushes and 32 stencils (the listing says stencil patterns are random)

Stencils if you are not confident freehand

• Snazaroo Halloween stencil templates, set of 6, listed as reusable and washable with a self adhesive backing, including bat, skeleton and witch designs
• Halloween face paint search on amazon.co.uk to compare other kits and colours
