Face Painting Stamps
A simple way to get going, using face painting stamps
Face painting stamps are similar to traditional business stationary stamps. They are used by stamping onto the human skin instead of paper (as in business stamps). For the face painter they can be very helpful at large events where one has decided to paint cheek art, to get through long queues of customers. They are great for young kids who quickly get bored and start wriggling around. A face paint stamp goes on quickly, and can then be filled in with various colors to enhance the design.
How Face Painting Stamps work
Face painting stamps work in a very simple way. They are normally made of rubber and have a soft foam backing. This enables the stamp to flex to the shape of the skin on which the design is applied. They are manufactured to be soft enough to adapt to the surface they are being applied to, while still transferring the design onto the skin. Stamps that are effective are simple designs that kids love and yet without complex patterns that can smudge during application. How to use face painting stamps:1) Apply black or a dark color face paint to the face paint stamp, using a sponge to make sure only the design is wet.2) Apply the paint wet Stamp to the persons face or arm.3) Then fill in the areas in between the lines of the design with various colors.
