Face Paint Case

Hi all,

I thought I would share a really cool idea for a face painting case. They are called Slimcases and they are ultra slim storage clipboards for schoolwork and stuff. I get them at Walmart's and I just picked up 2 more because they have all their school stuff coming in and they sell out over the year. My first two are red and my second two are hot pink, I was excited to find 2 hot pink ones because hot pink is one of my business colors - hot pink and black.

They can hold 11 to 12- 18 ML Snazaroo cakes. (I just have 11 per container) I leave them open and put plastic wrap over them before I close the case. It seems to be working.

The cost is $6.88 (that's what I paid for my last ones) I just put them open on top of my Fatmax and use the inside of the top to hold sponges and glitter.

Hope this helps some of you out finding a low cost way to hold your paints.

Oh and I put them in a Walmart case that hold's 2 of these containers and it goes in the bottom of my Fatmax for storage. The container is 15" x 11 1/2" x 3 1/4"

Nice find. I like slim cases so I don't have to do lids.

I wish they sold the slim case in Australia, i cant justify paying $40 for the mehron case

sammie, don't know if this helps, Amazon had this case which is similar and has a pencil box at the bottom. The paper part is 8 1/2 x 11 so it may hold a few less, but it might work.

Here is another one:

Amazon has a few different versions of slimcases so you might try on that.

This is what I've been using for about a year. The only downside is that tall rainbow cakes (like from Sillyfarm) are too tall for the lid to close sometimes, also letting the shallower pots inside slide around. I remedied this by putting one drop of Tack & Tack Again adhesive on the bottom of each paint pot. It makes it sticky, but not permanently adhered to the bottom. Does that make sense?
