If you are not a painter or if you have never touched a paint brush in your life, then the very idea of face painting may intimidate you at first! Don't worry there are books to guide you and if you start with beginners books you cannot go wrong.

As you look for the information you will realize that there is enough material available on easy face painting. All you have to do is to look for more simple designs and practice them. If you do not have volunteers for you to practice on you can use paper and then use your own hands or legs and see how it looks.

You should start by painting simple designs to gain your confidence and once you have it, go on to more complex designs. Having FDA approved paint will also ease the worry of one of your customers having a skin reaction. Make sure you have the correct tools to complete your face painting, brushes and sponges are a must. Once you have started you will see how easy face painting really is.

The books you read will give you some easy face painting ideas and designs but a good tip to know is that there seems to be distinct preference in designs when it comes to boys and girls. Girls generally prefer a design of a princess face, flowers on the cheek or a bunny but the boys prefer to have a Spiderman or a monster on their face.

Having an idea of how many children will attend the party will help you to make sure you have a wide range of designs for the kids to choose from.

To help you have an easy face painting session I recommend having all of the designs you can do out on display. This way, the kids can choose the design they want before they have even got to you. This will speed up the whole process and avoid the kids sitting in front of you struggling to decide what they want on their face.
