Five stars all around for our amazing face painter! She was incredibly professional, so sweet, and instantly made everyone feel comfortable the moment she arrived. The kids were absolutely mesmerized, and she was so patient and gentle with each little personality in her chair. Somehow she managed to create stunning designs on wiggly toddlers and even on the (slightly wiggly 😉) adults who had enjoyed a drink or two. Every face looked like a tiny masterpiece. She truly added magic to the party and made my daughter’s birthday even more special. We can’t recommend her enough!
