How to Enhance Face Painting Designs
You have been working hard to make a face painting design using single colors or advanced techniques, such as split cakes, one stroke, or with stencils. To finish it off, you still need a couple of things to enhance your work and make it pop or add a “wow factor” for your customer.
How to enhance your design depends on the design theme and the child’s gender.
Enhancement Options for Girls
For girls, there are many options to choose from, and they can be used individually or combined.
To achieve dazzling or sparkling effects, you can use:
- Face painting glitter dust spray
- Chunky glitter gel
- Glitter cream
If you want to emphasize lines in a design, glitter marks can be applied along the lines. Glitter marks also create a 3D effect for a design.
Enhancement Options for Boys
Boys do not typically want glitter, but they prefer metal tones for superhero designs. These designs can be enhanced using mica powder after or while you paint with metallic or pearly colors.
Kryvaline’s mica powder can be mixed with wet paint in the cake containers when you activate the paint. Alternatively, the mica powder can be applied after the design is done but before the paint is dry.
Using Mica Powder for Girls
Mica powder also works for girl designs if a jewel or pearly tone is needed for the design.
Skin Gems and Gem Clusters
Skin gems or gem clusters are an essential part of most girls’ designs. They are usually placed on the focal point, typically in the center of the forehead.
Smaller individual gems can also be placed on other parts of a design, such as the center of flowers or snowflakes. Gem clusters must be assembled beforehand in order to use them at an event.
