Face Painting

what makeup to use for getting a pale face (for halloween) for not great skin?

Galena asked:


I got some normal halloween makeup “grease paint” is disgusting and since I have to dress up more than once and my skin isn’t great to start off with (it’s not totally horrible but I have mild acne).

So far I’m considering manic panic virgin pressed powder ( http://www.vampfangs.com/ProductDetails.asp?ProductCode=MPVWPP )
but I’d have to order it today for it to get here in time.
Also I have a friend that does face painting – she says they’re water based, does anyone know how they are on the skin?

(some people have recommended baby powder but that doesn’t stay on at all)

I’m trying to get the undead look, the pressed powder seems like the best bet, but it’s kind of expensive. so can I get away with the facepaints? or anything else you can think of?

Face Painters: How do you keep your brushes/sponges clean at a party?

midniqhtblue asked:


I have my first ever face painting gig for kids at a church festival. Never did face painting before (I really just know stage makeup and regular makeup).

I’ve been practicing with the face paints I got (Ben Nye Magicake) with sponges and brushes, but I can’t figure out how to clean them well enough between colors. My palette has 12 colors, and I read a tip to have a brush or sponge for each color.. but I thought that might get a little too cluttered and messy.

Any tips or advice would be very much appreciated. Thanks!

Link me a picture of a musical artist or dancer who you think has a beautiful face?

My Name Doesn’t Fit Here asked:


It’s for an art project I’m doing. I need an artist’s face, whether it’s a painter (but I prefer dancer or musical artist… like a singer) and I need to portrait paint their face. Just send me a link of their picture and, if you could, tell me who the artist is. Thanks so much!
