Make Every Halloween or Festival Look Glow with Neon Power
If you’re ready to level up your costume, concert, or club outfit, the ThEast UV Neon Face Paint Pen Set is your glow-to solution. Featuring 8 vibrant colours that pop in daylight and glow under UV blacklight, this easy-to-use pen kit is designed for bold face and body designs that dry fast and last all night.
The set includes:
🖊️ 8 UV-reactive colours – Pink, Blue, Orange, Red, Yellow, Green, Ginger, and Purple
✨ High-precision tips for sharp lines, detailing, and easy tattoos
🎉 Glow effect under UV light – perfect for parties, raves, clubs, and Halloween events
💦 Smudge-proof & waterproof – stays intact during sweaty dancing or long events
🧼 Washable with soap or cleanser – gentle on skin and mess-free to remove
These skin-safe markers are designed for kids aged 12+ and adults, and are made with cosmetic-grade, non-toxic ingredients. Whether you’re creating rave-ready neon eye looks, temporary tattoos, or otherworldly Halloween characters, these pens offer bold pigment without the fuss of brushes or paint palettes.
At Yorkshire Outdoor Activity Park’s Halloween Nights, we’ve seen these pens light up our UV zones and make costumes pop in the dark – a favourite with teens, cosplayers, and clubbers alike.

🎯 What This Product is Used For
Perfect for Halloween costumes, UV raves, glow parties, music festivals, Christmas events, club nights, and cosplay detailing. Can also be used for temporary skin tattoos and creative day-to-night makeup.
🌟 Why We Like This Product – Reviewed by the YPC Team
At Yorkshire Outdoor Activity Park, we introduced UV-lit trails and dance zones last Halloween – and these pens were a hit. Teens loved how easy they were to use, and the glow effect looked amazing under our blacklights. They’re perfect for detailed designs, and we had no issues with smudging during long nights. The colours are brighter than we expected and last through the whole event without reapplying.
🔄 Alternatives Worth Considering
Moon Creations UV Face Paint Pots – Great glow, more paint for full-face coverage, but messier and requires brushes
Glowhouse Neon Crayons – Good for kids, but less precise than pens
8-Colour UV Stick Face Paint Kit – Similar colours but in creamy stick format, better for covering large areas
💡 Tips for Using It Correctly
Shake each pen briefly before first use
If the nib appears white on arrival, open the cap for a few minutes to activate air flow – ink will begin to flow naturally
Apply directly to dry, clean skin for best results
For extra glow, use in UV-lit environments – they don’t glow in regular darkness
Always perform a patch test 24 hours before use, especially on sensitive skin
