Your Favorite One STROKE!

okay! So..I've only been buying solids...now I'm thinking of getting some one strokes...
would you recommend buying pre made ones..or make it myself?
what is your FAVORITE one stroke and what do u use it for? (so I get the ideas before buying it =D)
how many one strokes do you keep/bring for your gigs?
Thanks everyone!

I have a laptop case of one-strokes. The ones I seem to use most at the moment is the metallic white-metallic dark blue for "Frozen" crowns with snowflakes & teardrops added in white. (With eye makeup & lipstick in the same colors). Red & white (for roses) and greens & yellow (dragons, snakes, stems & leaves on the roses). I started with loving the prisma cakes as they were easy for me to learn with, but now I mostly make/refill my own. Hope that helps!

Tasha,

I like to keep two pre-made rainbow cakes, a pastel split, and a neon split in my cake. The rest of my cakes I make myself. I do them in themes. For example, I have a pink, purple, blue, and green cake that have varying shades of each color.

I also have a cake that has black, red, and white mixed in that I use for Spiderman.

Actually, the only cakes I take to a gig that aren't split are a solid black and white.

I rarely use one solid color because I find that varying the shades gives the design more depth and dimension.  

If you have a bunch of solids I recommend making your own.  I go online and find a split I would like, then use similar colors and make wormies, then smash them flat once you have the colors you like.

I attempted 1 stroke making lol! with my old paint...it's zoo gooooeeeey...what do i do now? just dry it up?

Here in a dry climate, it sits on my windowsill overnight.
If you are in a humid area, I would set in in an oven that's nearly cooled overnight.
