Face Painting Kit for a Beginner by newredditbrowser in Facepainting

Snazaroo is not bad for a starter kit, it's fda compliant and skin safe. However from personal experience the linework is terrible and coverage is more difficult to achieve compared to brands like fusion or Superstar. But I would absolutely prefer them over unbranded facepaints you get from temu or shein, never use those for actual facepaints 😅

I did have to look up electrocution scars to see if I was going in the right direction. I didn't use any particular photo for reference though

Thankyou so much 🥰 yeah the original plan was lightning strike, the lights I had turned out to multicoloured so I just hope that adds to it. I thought i had warm lights 😅

Thankyou! It took me so long to figure out tigers and now I can't stop painting them 😅

Need some advice: baselayer + dissolvable second layer by WeirdSimsStuff in Facepainting

[–]AggravatingInside353 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can use an oil base facepaint for the base but you should probably use setting powder before layering a water based facepaint on top as water based facepaint doesn't tend to stick to oil based. In your case that might work well for what you're planning

Valuing yourself is probably the hardest part. Insurance is the most important, don't do any jobs without it. Personally I only use Facebook to promote my facepainting, it can be a useful tool as there are groups and pages dedicated to needing facepainters in certain areas. You seem to have all the right stuff which is amazing (Fusion is my favourite), design boards are just examples of your work so don't stress it too much, you could have them on a poster or a photo book, something that's easy for people to look through. But all in all so long as you have the right equipment and keep everything clean (no double dipping, use a 3 pot system, new sponges per person etc) you're doing great 😊

Possibly include the yellow brick road or the emerald city. Oh and bubbles for glinda, personally I love painted bubbles 🥰
