Thanks to face painting, you can make up like an animal, create a pattern on any part of the body, or make an unusual illusion. The multiplicity of images characteristic of this technique allows it to be used for any person, regardless of age or gender.
Face painting masters use brushes made from natural hair only... They complement the drawing with sparkles, rhinestones, feathers and other decor - all this adheres well to the paint and adheres to the skin.

To create designs on leather, you only need three ingredients: paint, good brushes, and your imagination.You can buy paints from a craft store or create your own. Commercially available paints can be dry, water-thinnable, water-thinnable, ready-to-use.
For self-preparation of paint you will need:
- potato or corn starch - 3 tablespoons;
- water, the temperature of which is approximately 37-40 degrees, - 1.5 tablespoons;
- cream, for our purposes any child's is best - about 1 tablespoon without a slide;
- food dyes.
Combine the starch, water and cream and stir until smooth. Add the dye to the resulting mixture drop by drop until the desired color and brightness is obtained. You can start drawing right away.
Regardless of whether you purchase paints or make your own, be sure to test for allergic reactions. Apply some dye to the area behind the ear and let it sit for 10 minutes. If there is no redness, then you can safely draw.

In addition to paints, you need to prepare tools - sponges of various sizes, brushes of different thicknesses for drawing details, you can make a stencil, for example, for an animal's face. You also need a sheet or hairdressing cape to protect your child's clothes while drawing, a hair band, dry and wet baby wipes. Napkins are best taken without fragrances, marked 0+, which guarantees the absence of possible allergic reactions on the skin.
Children under three years old should not do face painting.

Simple Animal Mask Drawings
Face painting for girls 10, 11, 12, 13 years old differs in the degree of difficulty. After all, the older the child, the more he wants uniqueness and creativity in the drawing.
All animal masks are made in this way:
- using a sponge, paint is evenly applied to the face of the color that is characteristic of a particular animal, in circular movements, not forgetting about the eyes and lips;
- dry the base, and then apply the drawing.
Let's consider step by step the most popular sketches.

Leopard
Easy-to-create drawing. Apply a light orange base.
We make the muzzle of the beast as follows:
- on the forehead, just above the brow ridges, draw the ears and the forehead in black;
- paint over the gap from the upper lip to the nose with white and form beads, select them and draw a mustache;
- we make eyes with the help of arrows, on the tip of the nose we draw a cat's nose;

The cheetah's face is drawn in the same way. It is important to understand that the leopard and the cheetah are different animals, although they are similar. The main difference is spots. In a leopard, they look like black circles, and in a cheetah, they look like black dots.
Panther
We cover the child's face with a deep blue color and outline the outline of the animal's muzzle with black paint, carefully paint over the area around the child's eyes. For the effect of depth and realism of the picture on top of the paint, let's make neat strokes with white or gray.
The panther's nose is drawn as follows: first, on the tip of the nose, draw a nose like a cat's, only larger, then on the wings of the nose we draw wrinkles in black. On the upper lip we draw the grin of the beast, we make teeth with fangs. The lower part of the jaw is depicted on the chin, the tongue is depicted in pink or red shades.

Mouse
Face painting is performed depending on the color type of the child: light shades are suitable for a dark-skinned girl, and dark shades for a fair-skinned girl.
- On the cheeks we apply a background with a sponge, the next step is to draw the fur and eyebrows of the mouse. For a visual effect of the depth and fluffiness of the coat, take different colors: brown, gray, black, beige.
- We draw the nose as follows: first, on the tip of the child's nose, we make a circle of pink, beige or gray, on top of the round, a glare can be applied in white.
- Next, we make a contour along the wings of the nose, draw lines almost to the very eyebrows. For volume on the nose, draw small strokes slightly darker than the main tone.
- Draw a mustache in black with thin lines or small black dots. Draw the mouth of the mouse, starting from a point from under the nose and up to the upper lip, then outline a part of the lip with the ends rounded up.
- A small strip is passed from under the nose to the upper lip. Then a part of the upper lip contour is outlined with a slight rounding of the ends of the lines upward. Glitter or arrows can be applied to the eyes.

Dolphins
Dolphins are most often painted in lilac and blue shades. If you paint in one color, then the dolphin will look like a cartoon character, and if with a gradation from light to darker colors, then it will look more naturalistic. We start drawing from the head, as if it were a large comma, then we add a mouth, fins and a tail on the face. Then make the stroke darker, select the eyes and mouth.
The drawing can be supplemented with water spray or sea foam.

Bat
To create a drawing of a bat on the girl's forehead, eyelids and bridge of the nose, apply a mauve tone. On the bridge of the nose, place the body of the mouse, draw an oval and a circle for the head with black paint, and apply a couple of highlights on them with white paint. We draw ears and open wings to the head, which reach the temples of the child.
For volumetricness, we emphasize the wings with white.

Panda
Create a background image of the animal's face in white, leaving the forehead to place the ears on it, which we will draw in black. We also draw in black circles around the eyes of the child, which are characteristic of the animal, and the nose from the underside to the very tip of the nose. Take a thin brush and draw in an uneven outline and hairs near the eyes, as well as the edges of the panda's mouth.

Children are delighted with the very idea of making up, even if it is a small drawing. You can draw the characters of the quest or arbitrarily, according to the wishes of the children.

With black paint we draw a skull with bones in a cocked hat, outline the contours of the bandanas, draw wrinkles on the fabric and ties on the blindfold. We paint with white paint accents on the skull and bones, as well as on the scarf. That's it, our pirate is ready!
