Free face painting ideas
Here are some great free face painting ideas that will make you a huge hit at your next party or event!
When painting the face, don’t stop with the face, include the body painting as well. This is always a hit. Kids go crazy about body painting. This is great because it makes kids feel like they are wearing a costume and they really have fun with the character they have painted. Be it a king or a witch, this idea is “without fail” when it comes to pleasing the young. And don’t worry about how long this may take. Keep it simple, short, and sweet and it’s so easy!
Another free face paint ideas is for you to try mixing and wearing makeup with your face paint. Taking some cosmetic makeup and combining it with face paint is an amazing idea. You can use blush to create rosy cheeks on a princess or an eyeliner pencil to create whiskers on a cat. Using makeup creatively and in combination with face paint can save you time and effort. Beginners may also find this easier than using paint on certain designs. Just try and experiment with different cosmetics to find which one works best for you.
A whole new and amazing dimension to add to your tried and tested face painting routine is the use of sticky jewelry. The great thing about adhesive jewelry is that they are simple and incredibly effective. Kids love them and it enhances the look of any face paint from hobbyist to pro. They are also very easy to use. Simply peel off the paper backing and apply it to the desired area. This is one of the best and most effective free face painting ideas.
Try wearing costumes with your face paint for an amazing combination that delights all the time! Finding simple costumes is the key to this favorite of all the free face painting ideas. You don’t have to do your best and spend a lot of money. That is not necessary at all.
Some costume ideas:
- • A simple black vampire cape.
- • A paper crown for a king
- • Paper bunny ears for a rabbit
- • A paper or plastic tiara for a princess
- • Stripes painted on shirts to look like a zebra or tiger
- • Or an old sock or stocking stuffed with tissues, magazine pages, or newspapers to look like the tail of a monkey, lion, or tiger.
And the last of the free face painting ideas is to use a good old-fashioned glitter! It’s simple, inexpensive, and incredibly easy. You can find glitter gel, glitter powders, and glitter powder that work well (you just need to decide which one works best for you). Just as stick-on jewelry can enhance the look of your face paint, glitter can make your paint look very professional.
There are endless free face painting ideas, you just need to get creative, use your imagination, and most importantly, have fun and enjoy your art!
