So, I wanted to write a product review on Detailz, but I though it would be even better if I did a video about it! So today I quickly put together a video to tell you what I think about this awesome face painting tool made by Mehron… I’ve also shown you a quick design that I made up on the spot, (I don’t think my best work) but its simple and will give you an example of how and when to use Detailz.

Had a question on the blog recently about cake paints and liquid paints. Kim Baker left a comment with the question:

“What are the pros/cons of liquid paint? Do most face painters use the cakes and only liquids for certain things?”

For those of you who didn’t see the comments thread last week this is what I said:

“……And liquid paint verses cakes? Its totally up to the painter. Some beginners might find the liquid paints easier because it can sometimes be tricky to get the right consistency when working with cakes…. Try both, see what works for you.”

But I want to hear, what everyone else thinks about
Cake Paints and Liquid Paints!

What kind of face paints do you use? Do you prefer cake paints or liquid paints…and Why? What brands do you like to use?

I’m sure you’ll agree with me when I say that your display board is pretty crucial for your face painting business at bringing in new customers when you’re out face painting right?

I thought I’d give you a simple way to make your own display board for face painting designs from home, that won’t cost you an arm and a leg!

* First of all, take photos of your face painting designs. Make sure you’ve got good lighting and the photos are nice and close up. Also makesure that your models are smiling in the photos, you won’t impress people with sad or cranky looking models now, will you?

* Then print them out and glue them to a piece of cardboard carefully and neatly.  Think about where you’re going to place each photo before you glue them down. 

* Makesure to put a title at the top with your Company Name/Stage Name.

* Laminate the cardboard, then stick that to a thicker piece of board (the kind of one that has foam inbetween maybe) And find a way to prop it up like maybe put it on your table between two books.

For all the face painters out there, who already have display boards for their face painting designs …

…How did you make your display board?

Or if you bought yours, where from?

Leave your answer by leaving a comment.

You can even send in photos of your display board to
info(at)facepaintingtips(dot)com and I’ll post it on the blog so
you can show it off to the world!

Happy Face Painting
