Has anyone of you here tried face painting? how many times have you done that? well, I tried only once, and that was during our company sports fest last year... at first I was really hesitant to have my face painted coz am afraid it would somehow damage my skin..but I had no way out coz that was compulsory...so i did have my face painted.. and am surprised..i liked the feeling of having that painting on my face... lol especially the first time the paint gets unto my face..it was really cool!!! I really enjoyed that experience and I wore my face painting the whole day..lol I just love to show it off to the public... lol :)

In the United States the products sold for face painting are just as pure as other makeups. Some people, however, choose to use things that are not meant for face painting, but for crafts. I am not sure that would be good for the skin. I have done just a little face painting, and never with an airbrush like some people use commercially. It is generally a good idea to keep red pigmented paint and makeup away from the eyes, as some red pigments can cause cancer.

Never done that. The closest I've come is stage makeup when I did community theater. My kids had a few little paitings at local events but not me.

I've always been worried I'd have a bad reaction so I never tried it. Yours came out pretty cool :) I think that even if I didn't have a reaction, I would wipe it over time because I have a hard time not touching stuff like that after it's done!
