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.

September 28, 2026This is exactly what our pajama party needed. Kristy was so creative and had grown women in line giddy over face paint. Talented, timely, kind and professional. 10/10 recommend hiring Kristy for your next party.

Price range: Starts at $120 per hour
Languages: English
Gig length: 90 - 480 minutes
Insurance: $2,000 - Beauty and Bodywork Insurance
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.
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.
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!
