Cute Curiosities Face Painting
Overview
I face paint in the Chicago area/suburbs & I've been face painting since 2014! I require a 1.5 hr minimum booking time unless you are local (can negotiate 1 hour as well, depending on distance),& I can also only paint faces ages 3 & up due to safety reasons. When painting younger children, I recommend a small motif on their cheek, hands or arms. I paint about 20 faces per hour, depending on the design & size of the design. If it rains or 85°+, please have a plan B of where I will be set up. I must be under a shelter (not a tree) if the event is outside, especially in warm weather. Please notify me if the event is outside during cold seasons. I am insured through Beauty & Bodywork Insurance.

Booking information
Price range: $120 per hour, minimum 1.5 hrs ($180+)
Languages: English
Gig length: 90 - 480 minutes
Insurance: $2,000 - Beauty and Bodywork Insurance
What to expect
I can paint 15-20 faces per hour. I use high quality skin safe paints--mostly Mehron Paradise paints, some Wolfe FX and Diamond FX paints. I use Brush Bath (Silly Farm) in my water to clean brushes in between each painting.
About
I face paint in the Chicago area/suburbs. I've been face painting since April 2014 and I love it! I went to school for art, so face painting was something I fell into after college and I have been working as a face painter for 12 years.
Additional booking notes
Please provide a table and 2 chairs and let me know if this is not possible as I don't have these items with me. Please place the table under shelter if it is outside (sturdy shelter or tent, not a tree; my paints and I can't be in the sun). Also, in the event of rain, please have a backup location for me if I'm outside since my paints are water activated. Please place me inside an air conditioned building if it is over 85° (I know this isn't always possible). Please don't place me directly in front of the DJ/announcer/loud speaker. I can paint about 20 faces per hour and am insured by Beauty and Bodywork Insurance. Thank you!
