5.0 out of 5 stars Simply the best!, October 23, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: The Usborne Book of Face Painting (How to Make) (Paperback)

For ten years, I've been painting faces for carnivals, parties, Halloween - you name it - this book can take rank beginners and allow them to paint very professional looking faces. The instructions are easy to follow, and elaborate on multiple techniques, including sponging and using different brush tips to achieve different effects. I highly recommend it - a word of caution- use only high quality face paints as they cover and blend better than the cheapos! Enjoy!

3.0 out of 5 stars Face Painting (Hotshots Series), April 20, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Face Painting (Hotshots Series) (Paperback)

This is a nice, compact, book on face painting. It briefly covers materials, equipment, and technique before showing you a nice variety of face-painting ideas. The directions for achieving each look, while not detailed, are sufficient to create the desired effect. Wonderful for Halloween ideas.

Excellent for any birthday party or special event. Simple enough for the beginner but also interesting full face designs. Great book.
