Some of the best ideas for easy face painting are, first of all bring hair pins or glitter hair gel to pull hair away from the face when you paint, I advice you to use only cosmetic grade glitters prepared for make up not the craft work, Always carry roll of paper towels or face clothes to pull excess water out of the brush. You are new to face painting so I recommend you to avoid the eyes and the lips as these areas are the most delicate, prone to infection and allergies.

For make up you need at least 3/4 inch wide brush, don't waste your money for little brushes that come with the inexpensive face painting kits, At a minimum you will use 2 -3 sponges, a wide brush, a medium round brush, and a tiny final touch brush.

You can go Wildlife Theme, by painting tigers and lion face to give message for saving them, Medical Theme, use schematic diagram showing the facial muscles, Pirate Theme, pirates of the ship will be a good option, Social Theme for increased awareness regarding global warming or pollution, you can show water pollution by painting half the face blue and showing many fishes in it, and then painting the other half of the face bluish-black and showing one or two dead fishes an early death because of pollution.

I hope you like my ideas. Take care!
