You Will Need (6 things)

  • Several Colors of Face Paint , what ever colors you prefer
  • Several Colors of Body Glitter , what ever colors you prefer
  • use Eyelash Glue to affix rhinestones all over face and chest
  • thick Fishnet , I used an old laundry bag and cut it up
  • bunches of Rhinestone(s) any color, size and shape you have
  • False Eyelashes and Lash glue

Steps (12 steps, 30 minutes)

  1. 1

    I have applied Foundation (usually I would use a pan cake for better coverage) and a light dusting of loose powder

  2. 2

    Dip your sponge in clean water, wring out, you want the sponge damn, NOT DRIPPING WET.
    Yellow first, forehead, bridge of nose and under eyes. Clean sponge, pick up green temple area, blend into yellow
    (Clean Sponge)
    Pick up Turquoise, blend into temple and cover cheeks and blend into yellow under eyes

  3. 3

    Mica Pigments, dust your face paint once dry with the pigments that match the face paint. If you only have shimmery eyeshadow that matches.. Use that

  4. 4

  5. 5

    Laundry Bag piece- Walmart - $3.97(i think. This is what you will be using for scales

  6. 6

    ok, this is kind of funny and a contortionist thing if you are doing it to yourself.
    Start with Pink, hold the piece of fishnet up on your forehead, with your loaded medium filbert brush, dab the pink on to your forehead

  7. 7

    Second Coor, ben nye turquiose, do above eyes and on side of face just a littlee. Same process iwth fishnet.

  8. 8

    Now go over the turquoise with pink

  9. 9

    Eye brows are Ben Nye turquoise, you can do what ever shape you want.

  10. 10

    Fins- use liner brush- Royal blue and white. Line eye lids(black), points in inner corner and underneath eyes

  11. 11

    Glitter, mist face with ben nye final seal, or you can mist face with water (very light mist) and apply glitter in what ever colors you want. I use the tip of my finger or a small paint brush.
    At this time, apply eyelashes, eyeliner, mascara and rhinestones. I did not do the eyelashes or rhinestones for this tutorial, it was about 10 last night when I did this and I didnt not want to waste the products just to wash them off. I will glue my rhinestones on with white school glue a lot of times. It does not smell icky like eyelash glue does. Do NOT use white school glue for eyelashes or anywhere near eye!!!!!!!!!(Eyeliner kills my eyes when I first put it on)

    It has been 2 years since I actually wore this face paint design out into the streets. A lot has changed in my life (Health issues, growing into an adult..FINALLY). I am still the same person as before, even though I look older (and chunkier)... (ouch)
    Have fun, change up the colors, try products like Mehron Silver powder (amazing stuff),Kryolan UV Dayglow Aquacolors. Life is what we make of it, the only rule(s) of thumb, love, laugh, dance and paint your world what ever colors and what ever designs your want!!!
