Amazing!! I bought this course to learn more as a face painter. I have done a little bit of face painting now and again for birthday parties and a few outdoor events in summer last year. Unfortunately I didn't really have any idea what I was doing! If you're someone like me and need to learn how to hold your brush properly, create all the different types of brush strokes, sponging, even how to use glitter properly ( I was using a craft glitter oh no)... this course will definitely help you! I am now ten times better than when I first started face painting and I feel have a lot more knowledge on what I am doing. Loved this course and can't wait to try the bundles!

Brilliant course

Molly Evans

I have tried to learn face painting on Utube but to no avail. This course is absolutely fantastic. I feel 100% more confident in my skills. Everything is explained slowly and easily. There are also a lot of links and information included

So much information! Really surprised by how informative it was, highly recommend. Great demonstrations, the videos are really well done and show exactly how to recreate the brush strokes which is something I've definitely struggled with. When instructions videos are too fast it can be hard to follow but these were very good for beginners. Finally understand the techniques to achieve the facepaint looks I always see online, feeling much more confident now!
