Christmas face painting ideas

 I don't know why I haven't posted this sooner, but I was inspired by Kelli Zermiño a blogger for Olga Mursev's international face painting school. She posted a great Christmas blog post full of great Christmas and Holiday inspired face painting designs and included a few of my designs as well as a shoutout to my line of ultra sparkly cosmetic glitters.

As a face painter and artist I know how hard it is to come up with a winning design and how easily we get stumped when it comes to Christmas and Holiday designs, so I have put a few of my own Christmas and Holiday face painting designs and face painting tutorials together here for your inspiration.

I hope they spark your creativity and help you to create your own festive designs for your next face painting gig. Enjoy and have a Happy Holiday.

Snowflake face painting tutorial

Hello my face painty friends,

 It's been awhile since I've had the time to record a face painting tutorial and well, I truly apologize. I've been so busy with work and teaching and family that I just haven't had the time to sit and record anything. I promise to make this more of a priority from now on.

 In my latest winter design I break it down into a two parter. In the first video I show you how to create a pretty blue and purple glitter eye makeup look for the snowflake face painting look.

 Watch part 1 below

Glitter used in this look is Sirena and Azucar by Sugar Glitter: https://www.sugarskullfacepainting.com/glitter-makeup 

In the second video I show you how to create a pretty, sparkly womens winter face painting design around the eyes.

Day 24 Glitter and Glam Challenge TBT

Day 24. Well, it's Christmas eve and Throwback Thursday so, in honor of both I am posting one of my favorite Christmas designs... Santa mom err, uh I mean Santa Claus ;)  This was  painted 2 years ago (yes I was a bit chubbier, haha which actually makes this Santa look about right ) and I still paint it the same way. I can't say that for many of my designs which have evolved over the years.

 I used  Azucar and Beso Glitter on Santa's Hat. If you would like to learn how to paint this design you can watch the video tutorial on my youtube channel.  I will post the video tutorial down below.

Watch the tutorial here...

 I hope you have a very Merry Christmas Eve.

Bow face painting tutorial (Makeup Monday)

It's been a while since my last post and for that I am sorry. I've been extremely busy with various projects but, I wanted to stop and share a little Step By step face painting Tutorial with you. I don't normally share these types of tutorials so, enjoy this little gem as a special holiday Easter gift from me to you.

Step 1. Pull out your favorite One stroke split cake. I've used Cupcake Arty cake given to me by SillyFarm.com
Step 2. Using a #10 Filbert load the darker side of your splitcake in order to richer color. Make a circle using the flat part of your brush.
Step 3. Using the tip of the brush start at the center of your circle and as you come out flatten your brush down to make the sides of the bows. Make a 3 on the right side and and E on the left side.
Step 4. Color in your bow
Step 5. Make the tails of your bow
Step 6. Using a #1 script liner load your brush with black and outline your bow with a thin line.
Step 7. Using a #3 round load your brush in grey and add some shading. While the paint is still wet take a 1/4 DM Stippler dry brush and drag the grey paint to blend it out.
Step 8. Load the lighter colors from your split cake onto your filbert and add some highlights. Take more of the darker paint and blend so there are no definite lines.

TADA you are finished with your beautiful bow.

You can always simplify this by leaving off the tails and forgoing the shading portion if you are in a rush. Makes a great base bow for tons of designs including Minnie Mouse.

I hope you are able to use this on your next event.

Frozen face painting designs

The movie Frozen has been huge on the birthday party season lately. I came up with a quick Frozen inspired face painting tutorial in December but, it's just not enough to have only one design readily available to my little clients so I have been working on my character cheek art designs.

I have come up with a cute little Olaf design that all the kiddos love. It's pretty fast and easy.

 

Here is my Queen Elsa face painting design

 

and my Anna face painting design

 These are anime inspired designs. I love to take a classic princess and throw a little anime in her eyes. The simple lining also gives it that same feeling. I do love painting realism but, when it comes to cartoons why not go all out and really make them fun to look at.

I hope you are inspired to create your own version of these characters much like I was.

Happy Painting my painty friends,

Shawna
