Step 1:
Take a medium sized brush and paint the area around the eyes. The brush strokes
should be painted from the centre outwards to create a fur' effect. Then paint the area around the
mouth, chin, lips and lower cheek area with white. The brush strokes should begin in the centre
and go outwards - like in the photo.
Tip:
If youre painting more than one person - use a Q-Tip cotton tipped applicator
to paint the lips
and then throw it out and use a new one for the next person! Good hygiene habbits are a must.
Step 2:
Using the same size brush use pink to paint the bottom part of the nose and the higher
parts of both cheeks. You can sponge the cheeks on if you wish for that rosy glow.
Tip:
Dont have pink? Mix a little red and white together in a palette and make your own shade of
pink!
Step 3:
With a small pointed brush use black to outline underneath the eyes. Ask the person
youre face painting to look up while you paint underneath the eyes. Paint a thin black vertical line
from underneath the nose to the bottom of the upper lip making a little triangle at the end. Then
paint a thin black horizontal line across the bottom of the upper lip and extend this line about 1 cm
on each end. Then paint a few black dots on both sides of the vertical line like in the photo.
Tip:
Dont paint too close to the eyes or else youll get eye irritations and you dont want that!!
Another Tip:
Instead of painting a black outline around the eyes you could use a black liquid
eyeliner or eyeliner pencil!
Step 4:
With a small pointed brush, use black paint to paint a few fine
lines (whiskers) on both sides. Start the lines just a little outward from
the dots and extend them outwardly across the cheeks.
Tip:
For fine line work, liquid paints are best.

Step 5:
With a small pointed brush, use black paint to outline 2 big teeth underneath the
horizontal line on the bottom lip.
Tip:
You may need to add extra white in the teeth to make it stand out.
And that's all there is to it! If you like, experiment with the design, make changes where
you want, add some different colours, maybe wear some bunny ears to top it off and most
importantly have fun !!!
"The Biggest Mistake People Make with their Choice of Face
Paint!"
I think that the biggest mistake most people make when they want to start painting is their choice
of paint. Not many people realize that you can’t just use any old paints on human skin. Even most
non-toxic acrylics aren’t safe! Doesnt matter if theyre water based, acrylic, or oil - if they werent
made especially for the face and body there will be a high risk of allergic reactions breaking out
on the skin.
The only face paints you should use are products that have been specially made for face or body
painting – it is advised that you stick with water based paints (made for the skin) because they
wash off easily. Don’t run the risk of using the wrong face paints on someone because if
something goes wrong, (and it probably will) even if you have insurance, they won’t cover the
cost of the damages you could be facing!!

"The Most Important Thing to Look Out for When Buying
Face Paint"
I’ve already stressed that it’s extremely important to buy face paint specially made for the face
and body but the most important thing to look out for when buying face paint is whether or not
they comply with various authorities in your country (e.g. U.S. FDA.) within the guidelines for use
on the skin. This might sound a little obvious but youll be surprised at what people are doing out
there!
Also, do some research. Find out what the face painters in your local area are using, get on the
phone with a professional face painter and ask them what they use and what they recommend.
"How to Remove Face Paint (From the Skin)"
Good water based face paint should come off easily with soap and water or baby wipes. If it
doesnt make sure that youre using suitable face/body paints and if you are maybe you should try
a different brand.
If you have a particular colour that doesnt wash off the skin easily but you still want to use it, I
would recommend that you only use it on top of a white base coat - this will prevent it from
staining your skin.
Water based face paints are recommended by most professional face painters as it washes off
much easier than oil based paints.
"The Difference Between Face Paint Crèmes, Liquids &
Cakes–What’s Best??"
This comes down to personal choice and most professional face painters use a combination of
these but to help you make your choice, here are some brief descriptions on different types of
face paint:
Cakes
: Cakes can be slightly moist or dry and need a touch of water to activate/ to be ready for
smooth application onto the skin. Cakes are used a great deal for base coats, but can be used for
detail and line work…this is of course up to the individual face painter.
Crèmes
: Crèmes have a softer consistency compared to cakes and are more “creamier” in
texture. Crèmes glide on the skin very smoothly and are also good for bases although they can
also be used for detail and line work as well.
Liquids
: Liquids can be used straight from the bottle/tub right onto the skin. They are runny and
are a great consistency for smooth fine detail and neat line work.
Having said that, different brands will offer slightly different results.
