4 Summer Face Paint Ideas

Take the lids off the colours you would like to use, plus black and white. Check the face is clean and has no rashes or sore bits, and that the child does not have sensitive skin.

Drip a few drops of water onto your pink to dampen a spot. Using a wet brush, mix up the white until it is creamy. Pick up a bit of damp red on the tip of the same brush.

Imagine a dot for the flower centre and ‘stamp’ down your brush with the darker tip towards the centre. Go round in a circle like numbers on a clock face.

Using yellow paint, make some oval shapes for your bumble bee bodies.

Add in the flower centre.

Paint in green leaves to connect your flowers as you desire.

Then, paint in some white wings and eyes for your bees.

Finally with a clean wet brush, add black stripes, feet, and antennae to your bees.

And there you have it, your little one is ready to go have some fun!

Add middles to the flowers and white dots to your ladybirds if you would like.

To finish, add black outlines and dots on your ladybird.

And there you have it, your kid is now ready to go play in the sun!

Using a wet brush or a damp sponge stamper, mix up the 1st colour you would like to use until it is creamy. Imagine a wiggling line across the face and stamp/ paint a circle. Leave a gap between circles to be filled in by the second colour.

Top Tip: To create a 3d shaded look, pick up a slightly darker colour on one edge of the sponge stamper. Twist the stamper on the skin to ‘shade’ the circle edge.

With a clean wet brush or damp sponge stamper, mix up the 2nd colour you would like to use. Fill in the gaps in your wiggly line with this colour. 

Once you have created the core outline for your caterpillar, grab a clean wet brush, and add white eyes to you caterpillar’s face.

Then, with another clean wet brush, add black outlines, feet and antennae to your caterpillar.

Ta dah! Your little one is now ready to go and have fun!

You will need to create a rainbow pattern on your sponge to be used for the face paint. Begin by getting a clean wet brush and painting a stripe of red paint on your sponge. Repeat this process, proceeding to add stripes of orange, yellow and green.

Then, starting near the left ear drag the sponge forming an arch shape that finishes at your little one’s right eyebrow. Ensure you do this in one movement.

Next, it’s time to create a cloud like effect around your rainbow. Using a wet brush, mix up the white and paint the outline of a cloud at either end of the rainbow.

Then, grab a wet sponge and smudge the white paint to create a cloudy effect on either side.

And there you have it, your beautiful face paint is now complete!
