Face Painting Designs
When painting kids faces I have found that the face painting designs that the boys and girls choose are always similar at each venue. So having a portfolio of 10 designs for both boys and girls should be fine. One thing to remember though is that crazes change very quickly with children so I do advise taking on board what is going on around you like kids films that are coming out in the cinemas so you can quickly adapt and have the face painting design of the character that is from the film.
I have found that girls love fantasy and animal designs the most and I purposely decided to add more designs like these to my portfolio because of their popularity. Through experience I have found the following face painting designs absolute winners for girls:
- Princess
- Bunny Rabbit
- Fairy
- Puppy Dog
- Cat
- Flowers
- Rainbow
- Butterfly
- Witch
- Fantasy
Boys and girls have such a contrast to the types of face painting designs they prefer but through experience I have found the following face painting designs best for boys:
- Tiger
- Puppy Dog
- Clown
- Spider's Web
- Pirate
- Skull
- Robot
- Bat
- Alien
- Tribal
Obviously as you paint more and more kids you will see a trend in the favorite designs or what they request you to learn to paint. Normally if a child comes to you and sees you can paint the latest tv hero you will be a hit with them forever!
