Washable paints with a greater range of colour and squeezey bottles?

Can anyone recommend any washable paints in squeeze bottles? The Crayola ones aren't in squeeze bottles so I find them hard to pour out. Hobbycraft does then in squeeze bottles, but has a really limited colour range and I'd like to have purple, pink etc without having to mix them every time. And some metallic shades etc would be nice.

Anyone seen any washable paints in squeeze bottles that come in lots of colours? Scola on Amazon looks good but doesn't explicitly say it's washable.

Hobbycraft do loads of colours in ready mix paint but I don't want to ruin lots of clothes (including my own!) with paint that will stain. I've already had my kids ruin some new coats at a forest school session where they didn't use washable paint so don't want anything like that to happen again!

I’d love to know this too! I often look at paints in the shops and think where’s the pink… but not going anywhere near anything not easily washed out!!

Thanks, is that the Mala ones @Bitzee and @jhmlwos ?

The reviews seem to say they stain and they're not described as washable, have you found they wash out from clothes easily?

Yes the Mala. It’s ok wash wise. Use an overall ideally but get the clothes in the washing machine before the paint is fully dry and it will come out.

Ah thanks, I'm really looking for something that's fully washable.

Any other suggestions?

Have you tried baker Ross? I don’t know how much they are genuinely washable
