Best Face Painting Kit Reviews 2018

Whatever item you wish to buy, taking into consideration the price and then your budget is a great way to start. For most products in the market, their prices are always a function of the type of features they come with. This means that the more features, the higher the price, although a highly priced product doesn’t necessarily translate to a high quality product, and vice versa. The main thing here is to find a product that best suits your budget range and which would deliver the best results to you.

The price of face painting kits covered in our review ranges from $8.99 to $44.99, which is a reasonable and affordable range for top-notch products and brands such as the ones we included in our review. During our research, we came across many cheap face painting kits, but we figured you’d want only the best and, since those didn’t meet up with our quality check, we decided to ignore them.

There are some features that you may want to consider carefully if you want to have a great face painting experience.
These features include:

• Type of face painting kit (water-based paint or crayon)
• Size or quantity
• Number of Pieces
• Paints
• Types of brushes included
• Extra features

Face painting kits are classified into two types – the paint and the crayon types. The paint type is the more common out of the two, with its colors contained in small color pots in a creamy form, most often requiring you to add just a tiny bit of water before you can start applying the paint. The crayon type comes ready to use in a crayon form which is easy to use without using additional applicators. The paint type gives more versatility in terms of customizing and blending colors so you might want to consider the type that’ll be most suitable to the main purpose of purchase.

Face painting kits are often accompanied by accessories such as brushes, pads, sponges, stencils and painting guides. Brushes, pads and sponges are the applicators and are used to apply the paints to the face and to draw the different designs. A brush can be either thick, fine or ultra-fine and each has a specific function and use in the face design work. Stencils are pre-designed shape outlines that can be used by both professionals and novices to easily draw in shapes of objects or characters on the face. The painting guides are almost always a bonus addition to any face painting kit. It usually contains ideas for great face painting designs so you can easily have your pick and easily draw it on a face in just a little time.

Different face painting kits come loaded with different color schemes. A great face painting kit should have a good array of bright colors, a few spooky colors for stuff like Halloween designs and of course, the silver glitter that gives that special, sparkly and fun touch to the designs. Some brands, in addition to the silver glitter, also have a gold glitter which adds more class and panache to your face designs. These colors come in different quantities and depending on what you want to use it for, or how often you’ll be using it, you might want to take a closer look at the quantity of the paints.

Face painting kits are, for the most part, easy to use, since they don’t require any special skills or knowledge and can be used by anyone who is ready to have fun. The stencil that comes with the kit makes the task a whole lot easier, just stick the desired shape unto the face, draw in the details with your paint and presto! You have your perfect face design created in no time at all.

Most face painting kits come with a step-by-step e-book or video guide that often contain several face painting designs with instructions on how to draw them or create your own design. This guide is helpful especially for beginners who just want to be able to paint their little ones’ faces for home plays or parties.

Some brands have their colors contained in small covered pots that are removable from the main plastic casing. This makes it easy to move individual colors about, especially in situations where there is more than one user. In such cases, you might want to share the colors so each painter can comfortably design at a different location and then swap the colors if need be. Also this feature means that you can reuse the plastic case for any other purpose if you wish.The base colors in the face painting kits can be mixed together to give customized color shades and tones to suit whatever face painting project you are working on.

Almost all face painting kits have water-based paints. This makes it easy to apply and to remove with just a soapy wet sponge. It also reduces the risk of any allergic skin reaction that may arise due to oils and thus increases the kit’s suitability for different skin types. A good face paint should be paraben and fragrance-free, non-toxic and hypoallergenic. A few brands use cosmetic grade pigments for increased quality and safety for their products, like one of the products featured in our review. You might also want to check if the product has a money back guarantee on it, as this is also a measure of the manufacturer’s level of trust in its product.
