Magical Rainbows
The quickest Saint Patrick's Day design that I like to paint is a rainbow with a Shamrock or a Pot of Gold at the end. The rainbow can be done in just a few seconds with a rainbow cake. Rainbow cakes are amazing because you can apply all of the colors in one load, instead of painting in all of the individual colors one by one. Rainbow cakes are also called 1 stroke cakes, split cakes and arty cakes. They come in neon and regular colors and can be applied with a 3/4" or 1" wide brush. You will have a lot more control with a brush, versus a sponge, because you can twist the brush easily to make your rainbow go from thick to thin, which comes in handy if you want to hide the end behind a shamrock, like in the image below.
Leanne's Neon Rainbow is one of many 1 stroke split cakes that you can use! This is by far the most popular one we sell at Jest Paint. Click here to see our whole collection of best selling small rainbow cakes!

How to apply and remove this Chunky Glitter Gel?
Apply Festival Glitter Gold Digger with a filbert brush. We recommend face painters or users to apply directly on the skin or hair and not over face paint since the gel will smear your design, unless the design was done with alcohol based paints. This glitter gel removes easily with soap and water.
What is Festival Glitter Gold Digger best for?
Gold Digger chunky glitter gel is great for creating colorful accents around your face paint designs or to be applied by itself on the hair, on the chest area or even around the eye area (away from the eye). Gold Digger is perfect for faux jewelry, superheroes, princes's designs and more!
What else should I know about Festival Glitter Gold Digger?
All Festival Glitter Gels are made with polyester glitters to make them skin friendly. Because of the size of the glitter we recommend to keep it away from the eyes and not to apply it on small children that might rub the glitter on their eyes.

Chunky Glitter Gel, like the Art Factory's Festival Glitter, has a gel base similar to aloe vera gel, so you will want to use it carefully on top of the face paint. The newest glitter pastes, like Amerikan Body Art Glitter Cremes, have an oil and wax base and are good for applying on the skin and on top of dry face paint with out any smudging.

Glitter Cremes are a new glamour makeup creation by Amerikan Body Art! Glitter Cremes are perfect for adding chunky glitters to your makeup looks and face paint designs. The Glitter Creme base is similar to a thick waxy lip balm, and it is densely packed with tons of gorgeous chunky cut cosmetic grade glitters. They look amazing any where on the face or body. If you are a face painter, you will be happy to know that Amerikan Body Art Glitter Cremes won't activate the face paint below when applied on top of water based face paint. Use Glitter Cremes with care and keep them away from the immediate eye area, especially when applying them to young children. Orion is bright and glows under black light!
How to apply and remove Glitter Creme makeup?
Amerikan Body Art Glitter Cremes can be applied on top of face paint, beauty make up or onto clean skin. The lip balm like base helps them stick to the skin, so no other adhesive is needed. Apply Chunky Glitter Creme with a filbert or angled brush, or for larger applications you can use a makeup wedge sponge. Remove Glitter Cremes by firmly wiping the glitter off with a soft cloth or paper towel. If there is any remaining residue you can wash it off with soap and water or wipe off with a make up remover.

Lucky Pot O' Gold
Painting A Pot Full O' Gold at the end of your rainbow is very simple if you just paint a black or brown pot and add gold paint or fine or chunky glitter for the gold. You can also use body glue to attach gold gems coming out of the pot if you want some serious bling! If you hand paint the gold, you can outline it with brown with a very fine brush. I like to paint a circle for the pot and then a horizontal curved line across the top for the lip of the pot. Then I add a half circle on each side for handles. A little white highlight on the gold coins and pot will add a lot of dimension to the design.
Shamrock Designs
Shamrocks are a Saint Patrick's Day must have for face painting designs! Below I will walk you through a few different ways to paint shamrocks that are fast and easy. Use different size brushes and stencils to make the right sized shamrock for the space you working on. Add them to rainbows or just paint one on the cheek for a fast design.
Shamrock Stencils
Painting shamrocks (a three leaf clover) can be done in many ways. You can use a shamrock face painting stencil if you want the easiest solution that will give you perfect shamrocks every time. You can also paint a lot of small shamrocks really fast with a stencil for a back ground pattern, or a flow of shamrocks that go around the side of the face like this really cool Ooh face painting stencil below.

What are the dimensions of this Face Painting Stencil?
Stencil size: approximately 4 3/8" tall by 1 3/4" wide at the largest points.
How do I use this Shamrock Face Painting Stencil?
Ooh! Face Painting Stencils are laser cut onto flexible 7 millimeter Mylar. This Shamrock Wrap Stencil is designed to be wrapped around the eye, forehead or arm. Ohh! face painting stencils are great for both sponge work and airbrush. To use them with a sponge, simply load your dry sponge into slightly wet paint so that the paint is tacky and not too wet at all. Press the stencil against the skin firmly while patting down the paint with your sponge. The paint should be dry enough that it stipples gradually in the gaps to build up into a solid coverage. Make sure to always keep pressing firmly on the stencil right around the area you are applying the paint. You can do this by moving your fingers slowly across the outer edges of the stencil as you tap the sponge between them. Carefully pull the stencil up and away from the skin when you are done, and listen for the Oohs!
How do I clean my Ooh! Stencil?
Ooh! Stencils are durable and easy to clean. Rinse the stencils and then wipe clean gently with a wet cloth and let air dry. Make sure not to get your cloth or sponge snagged on the stencil since that can break or bend it.
What are Ooh! Stencils best for?
Ooh! Stencils are great for adding detail to your designs. The great shape of these stencils make for a smooth application. Tire Cheetah Wrap is great for kids, teens and adult designs! People that like wild animal print will love this stencil. To add more to the design, sponge a background down on the forehead or side of the face, and then lay the stencil down and sponge over it using a contrasting color.
"I usually avoid painting 4 leaf clovers because it is a lot harder adding that 4th leaf with out all of the leaves getting smooshed together into a blob." -Anna
If you do get a special request for a 4 leaf clover, paint a green x and then paint the leaves more elongated and try your best to leave a gap between the leaves to help keep the shape of each leaf. I use a Bolt Small Firm Blender Brush to paint the rounded edged leaves, pushing the edges of the bristles against the skin and twisting it to make each half of the heart shape for each leaf. I used Fusion Prime Deep Green in the image below for a strong contrast with the white highlights and the skin color. You can also try these with metallic green colors for extra shimmer!
1 Stroke Shamrocks
A lot of face painters like to use rainbow cakes (1 strokes) in a green gradient to paint 1 Stroke shamrocks. This a great technique because you will have a variety of greens that will shape and outline the shamrock. Follow the step by step below to master these green little guys! I used a Bolt Medium Firm Angle Brush to paint the one below. That is perfect for a cheek art or forehead crown sized shamrock. You could use a 3/4" flat brush for larger shamrocks on the body.
The one stroke shamrock consists of three heart shapes that make up the three leaves, and a stem. You can also paint a shamrock eye mask by painting one leaf over each eye and one on the forehead, and the stem on the nose.

What is TAP Stencil Lip Print best for?
TAP Stencils are the ultimate face painting tool. These small face painting stencils are designed to fit around small faces to allow you to create great looking designs with little to no effort on your end. Use them on the forehead between the eyebrows as center pieces, or by the corner of the eyes to decorate the side of the face. When using patterns, you can move the stencil around to cover all of the desired area, don’t get tricked by their size, you can cover a full face with them if you keep on moving the stencil!
The flexible material and rounded shape allow the stencil to curve with the shape of the face and fit in any desired area without any inconvenience. TAP Stencil Lip Print is best for Valentine's Day inspired designs or even for Saint Patrick's Day as well! Add some glitter to it while the paint is still wet and get a sparkling look!
How to use TAP Face Painting Stencils?
Body Art stencils require some practice to learn how to use them properly, but once you learn how to use them you can get through your face painting line much faster!
You can use them to create very simple designs by just stamping the design featured on the stencil, or you can use them to enhance more intricate face painting designs and add textures or more detailed work to your creations.
Start with a clean stencil and make sure that the skin is nice and dry before you apply the stencil, otherwise the face paint will look runny. Apply the TAP Stencil against the skin and hold it firmly using the tabs provided.
Now is the time to apply the face paint. The best option is to work with pressed powders as they won’t bleed under the stencil. Load a smoothie or velvet blender with some powder and tap over the stencil gently until you have covered the desired area. If you use a primer underneath, like glycerin, Vaseline or just regular face paint, the powders will stick better. If you rather work with water activated face paints, we strongly suggest using a glycerin based paint like Superstar or Paradise. Get your sponge very slightly wet and work the paint into a creamy almost dry consistency. You want to make sure to always work with the least amount of water possible to prevent the paint from bleeding under your face painting stencil. Test the paint on the surface of your hand to make sure it isn’t too wet, and then tap over the surface of the stencil. Always move from the edges of the stencil into the design, so you are not pushing face paint under the stencil.
Using sponges with very small pores is best since they provide a more even coverage and they tend to hold less water. Some people also like to use kabuki style brushes with their stencils, just make sure the brush has a very thin load of paint and it is fairly dry. If you need to cover a larger area of the face you can gently move your stencil as you paint, making sure not to lay the stencil over a freshly painted area, so not to smudge the design underneath.
Once it is time to remove the stencil, let go of one of the tabs, and with your free hand pick the stencil and move it away from the face, making sure not to drag the stencil against the freshly painted area to prevent smudging. Before you use that stencil again, make sure to clean it and let it dry so it doesn’t ruin your next design. Before your first event using stencils make sure to practice painting with them a few times. You will see how quickly you can learn and start getting creative with them.
How to Store my TAP Stencils?
All body art stencils are delicate tools and require lots of care to make sure you can use them for years to come. Before storing them make sure they are clean. Put the stencil under a gentle stream of water and then use a clean towel to softly wipe the surface of the stencil on both sides. Use gentle movements, so not to bend any parts of the stencil. You can remove stubborn stains with some soap. Pat the stencils dry using a towel and put them away.
Many professional face painters store them using a snap ring and putting them in an area of their kit where they won’t get damaged. You can store them inside a little case, or you can use a photo album or trading cards album to separate them and make them easier to find. Many artists stick tiny pieces of Velcro on one tab and let them hang from a Velcro strip in their kit, or use the holes to hand them on a peg/pin board.

¿Para qué es mejor TAP Stencil Lip Print ?
Las plantillas TAP son la más novedosa herramienta para pintar caras. Estas pequeñas plantillas están diseñadas para encajar alrededor de caras pequeñas para permitirte crear diseños de gran apariencia con poco o ningún esfuerzo por tu parte. Úsalos en la frente entre las cejas como piezas centrales, o en la esquina de los ojos para decorar el costado de la cara. Cuando uses secuencias, puedes mover la plantilla para cubrir toda el área deseada, no te dejes engañar por su tamaño, ¡puedes cubrir una cara completa con ellas si continúas moviendo la plantilla!
El material flexible y la forma redondeada permiten que la plantilla se curve con la forma de la cara y se adapte a cualquier área deseada sin ningún inconveniente. TAP Stencil Lip Print es mejor para diseños inspirados en el Día de San Valentín o incluso para el Día de San Patricio! ¡Agregue un poco de brillo mientras la pintura aún está húmeda y obtenga un aspecto brillante!
¿Cómo usar TAP Face Painting Stencils?
Las plantillas de Body Art requieren un poco de práctica para aprender a usarlas correctamente, pero una vez que aprendas cómo usarlas, ¡puedes cruzar la línea en tus trabajos y hacerlo mucho más rápido!
Puedes usarlas para crear diseños muy simples solamente estampando el diseño presentado en la plantilla, o puedes usarlos para mejorar diseños más intrincados y agregar texturas o detalles a tus creaciones.
Comienza con una plantilla limpia y asegúrate de que la piel esté en condiciones y seca antes de aplicar la plantilla, de lo contrario, la pintura se verá líquida. Aplica la plantilla TAP contra la piel y sostenla firmemente con las pestañas de los bordes.
Ahora es el momento de aplicar la pintura. La mejor opción es trabajar con polvos prensados ya que no se filtraran debajo de la plantilla. Carga un pincel difuminador con un poco de polvo y golpea suavemente la plantilla hasta que hayas cubierto el área deseada. Si usas una imprimación debajo, como glicerina, vaselina o simplemente pintura facial regular, los polvos se adherirán mejor. Si prefieres trabajar con pinturas faciales activadas con agua, te recomendamos utilizar una pintura a base de glicerina como Superstar o Paradise. Humedece tu esponja ligeramente y trabaja la pintura en una consistencia cremosa casi seca. Debes asegurarte de trabajar siempre con la menor cantidad de agua posible para evitar que la pintura se filtre debajo de la plantilla. Prueba la pintura en la superficie de tu mano para asegurarte de que no esté demasiado húmeda y luego golpea sobre la superficie de la plantilla. Muévete siempre desde los bordes de la plantilla hasta el diseño, de modo que no empujes la pintura facial debajo de la plantilla.
El uso de esponjas con poros muy pequeños es mejor ya que proporcionan una cobertura más uniforme y tienden a retener menos agua. A algunas personas también les gusta usar pinceles de estilo kabuki con sus plantillas, solo asegúrate de que el pincel tenga una carga muy delgada de pintura y que esté bastante seco. Si necesitas cubrir un área más grande de la cara, puedes mover suavemente tu plantilla mientras pintas, asegurándote de no colocar la plantilla sobre un área recién pintada, para no manchar el diseño debajo.
A la hora de quitar la plantilla, suelta una de las pestañas, y con su mano libre quita la plantilla y aléjela de la cara, asegurándote de no arrastrar la plantilla contra el área recién pintada para evitar manchas. Antes de volver a usar esa plantilla, asegúrate de limpiarla y dejarla secar para que no arruine tu próximo diseño. Antes de tu primer evento con plantillas, asegúrate de practicar pintar con ellas varias veces. Verás qué tan rápido puedes aprender y comenzar a ser creativo con ellas.
¿Cómo almacenar mis TAP Stencils?
Todas las plantillas de arte corporal son herramientas delicadas y requieren mucho cuidado para asegurarse de que puedas usarlas en los próximos años. Antes de guardarlos, asegúrate de que estén limpias. Coloca la plantilla bajo un chorro suave de agua y luego usa una toalla limpia para limpiar suavemente la superficie de la plantilla en ambos lados. Usa movimientos suaves, para no doblar ninguna parte de la plantilla. Puedes quitar las manchas difíciles con un poco de jabón. Seca las plantillas con una toalla y guárdalas.
Muchos pintacaritas profesionales los almacenan usando un anillo de retención y colocándolos en un área de su kit donde no se dañarán. Puedes almacenarlos dentro de una pequeña caja, o puedes usar un álbum de fotos para separarlos y hacerlos más fáciles de encontrar. Muchos artistas pegan pequeños pedazos de velcro en una pestaña y los dejan colgar de una tira de velcro en su kit, o usan los agujeros para colocarlos en un tablero de clavijas.

Irish Princesses
Making a St. Patrick's Day themed crown is easy to do with a rainbow cake band across the forehead and colorful strokes over the eyes. Make it fit the theme by adding shamrocks on the crown and green and white swirls and twirls. Instead of a straight band of rainbow combo on the forehead you could also do a one stroke crown in a green gradient with sticky gems to accent it.

Leprechaun Makeover
Painting a person to look like a leprechaun is a fast easy design that will get a lot of good natured laughs! To transform someone into a Leprechaun you can use some orange face paint with a little bit of brown strokes on top to create the beard and eye brows. Note in the image below by Becki Butler that she didn't paint a mustache, which goes along with most of the leprechaun images you find these days. The simple black glasses with fine white highlights add an extra dimension to this expressive face painting design. If you want, you can even paint the green had with a buckle on the forehead just above the eyebrows.
Irish Beards
If you find yourself with a client that has a nice full beard that wants to add an Irish twist to it, what about using the colors of the Irish Flag on it?! You could do it all in green or orange as well and add some glitter to spice it up. You can use water based face paints to paint beards, but I can't guarantee if the pigments will wash out easily from their hair, especially if you are painting a blonde beard. Make sure to warn the model that they might need to wash their beard very well a couple of times if they see any lingering green.
Glitter Beards
Glitter beards are all the rage and you don't have to worry about staining the hair with glitter! All you need to do is rub some aloe gel, hair gel or glitterless gel base into the beard and use a poofer or fluffy brush to load on the glitter. You could also paint the beard with a product like Glitter Glaze. This is a super thick glitter gel that will give you great glitter beard coverage.

How to apply and remove?
To apply Art Factory Glitter Glaze Face & Body Glitter Paint, use a filbert or a flat face painting brush and apply as you would with any liquid face paint.

What is Glitter Glaze best for?
Art Factory Glitter Glaze is great for adding sparkling accents to your face painting designs or to create full designs using glitter. This glitter paint works better with older kids since it does take time for the product to dry on the skin.

Green Beer
For adults only! Try painting mugs of Green Beer on the cheeks, arm or make green beer glasses by painting them around the eyes. Use a light and medium green for the beer and white for the beer foam and off white for the mug. This would be very popular at St. Patrick Day pub crawls!
Practice Makes Progress!
Like I mentioned at the top, face painting really well takes some practice if you haven't had experience painting. If you have artistic talent and like to draw or paint or do makeup, you just need to get used to how to use face paints and the special accents and tools. Check out this blog post about face painting basics to get you started. The first post How to Face Paint - Step 1 : Get Your Face Painting Supplies talks about everything that you can get to complete a face painting kit beyond the basics that we mentioned here, and then the following posts give you all the tips we have for using sponges, brushes, stencils and more!
