This is a great `cookbook' for face painting. The best part is deciding which character you want to become - a clown, a lion, a cat, a witch, a princess, a pirate... Or if you just want ideas for decorating yourself, those are provided as well. The book begins with a section of face-painting tips, including extra helps for doing this job safely. In addition to giving instructions for sixteen different characters, the author offers suggestions for costuming. Necessary materials are listed with helpful hints on where to find them. Step-by-step instructions are listed for each character. This is a delightful craft book with excellent illustrations for all face-painting novices.

I ordered this booklet wanting examples of small designs, i.e. butterfly, flowers, etc. While the booklet has a few of those at the back, it is primarily designs for painting the whole face. Cat face, rabbit face, dracula, etc. It'd be a great resource for Halloween esp. when the parent prefers painted faces rather than masks which can obscure vision.

I have to say that the book is simple to read and it shows one the steps in order for one to apply clown white and the other materials in steps that go along with face painting yourself like a clown, etc. the text(book) has live photos of kids, and on the following page it has several sketched photos of how the make up in applied. the book is low priced. the book contains like around 40 pages, and you actually learn alot.
Now if your dream has always been to apply corpsepaint and need a good book-i suggest you get this one because it is pretty good. the only thing i have to say that the book does not have any toll free numbers along with addresses that state the places in this country USA OR CANADA of the places that sell clown make up or also known as "Corpsepaint." clown white is known as corpsepaint in the heavy metal world
Fantastik. this book provides the basics to all, then the rest is up too you!!

I had great expectations for this book. It was ok but didn't offer the "How to" I was hoping for.

I would liked to have seen more pictures in this book. There is not really a lot of ideas. I really feel like I wasted money on this book.

item came in fast time and good condition and I would purchase from seller again

The kids and I love face painting. We have created great family memories-thank you. You can see a picture of our face painting in my Journal too: www.imthankful.com
