Best instruction ever. I am watching every video I can by Sophie. What a great teacher!
Thank you so much Sandra, you just made my day! 💜
I'm an artist, clown and balloon twister. I will be adding face painting as part of my birthday 🎂 party offerings!
Your videos are very well made with a straight forward approach. I appreciate your honesty and value your options as it pertains to getting started. Most shops would recommend unnecessary products to beginner artist, just to make a buck!
Hi John, thanks so much for your kindness. I am trying to put some information out there that I would have liked to find when I was getting started. You are right, there are so many brands and products available that it's hard to know what to get without spending a fortune. I am so happy that you appreciate my work.
Thank you so much for making these videos, this one especially. I am knew to the world of face painting and there information out there can all be a bit daunting and confusing. Your videos are very clear, your pace is perfect and your voice is easy to listen to as well. Thank you.
That's so nice of you Alice. Thank you for your lovely feedback. I try to put give as much information as I can because I know how it feels to start out and feel a bit confused about it all. I really appreciate you, thanks again!
Sophie, I am new to face painting so this video was a great way to get introduced to the products that I need. Thanks for keeping it simple and listing all your resources. Also Thank you for mentioning what NOT to use (acrylic paint). I am looking forward to viewing more of your videos soon!
You are so welcome Nancy, thank you for stopping by! I had to take a break lately but I am now ready to upload new content soon. I hope that you will like it as well!
Very helpful and straight to the point!! Love it! 🎨👩🏼🎨
Thank you so much for your kind words, they mean a lot to me! 💕
Sophy: I feel so lucky to find your channel you are son kind to share all your knowledge with us. I really love your work and before i find your tutorials i really never think to do something like this. I"m starting with this and i am very exited to start and continue with this beautiful challenge. Send you a big hug and my gratitude
+ligza jaya Thank you so much for your kind words and for following my channel! I'm glad you decided to give face painting a go. You'll see, it's really fun!
Thanks for another great tutorial Sophie. I did actually get carried away when I started & would probably need a small truck for my supplies. I've now streamlined everything & it's so much better & less confusing.
Same here. I've also reduced my supplies so much and I am much happier this way. I will soon do a video on my current setup. It is much more compact than what I see other face painters use.
Thank you so much for all the tips on how to start face painting! I'm really excited to start, will keep watching your other videos for more tips :) I enjoy your calm and friendly voice :)
How's your process going?
I'm so happy to have been able to help you along the way. I will try to post of few more videos this year so stay tuned!
Thank you so much- I have learned so much watching your videos!
Thank you Katherine, I am so glad that my tutorials have been useful to you.
I’m a newbie so I went for something cheap with good reviews… ended up buying a brand called Kraze and it’s super pigmented and has worked well for me so far just practicing on my kids :) I can’t wait to start getting name brands like these tho, now that I know I absolutely love face painting!
Thanks for sharing!! I don't know the brand you are referring to but I'm glad you had a good start. Good luck in your face painting journey! 💖
You're ABSOLUTELY amazing! VERY thorough. Clear communication. Covered everything necessary, added loads of links. You are so meticulous with your explanations of EVERYTHING. THANK YOU MUCHLY!!! ps. You should approach CreativeBug. I think they need this kind of explanation in their face painting tutorials! THANK YOU again! ♥
Thank you, I really appreciate your feedback and I am grateful to have viewers like you! 💕
Very comprehensive and helpful. Thank you for an excellent video.
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for taking the time to leave a kind message of support here 😘

Hola Sophie!. Muchísimas gracias por sus excelentes explicaciones y recomendaciones. Estoy iniciando en esto y necesitaba saber sobre marcas y basicos para principiantes. Todos los Tips de su canal son geniales. Continue con su creatividad y muchos éxitos. (No me atreví a escribir en inglés porque tengo años sin practicarlo, sin embargo su buena dicción me hace entenderle muy bien).
¡Muchas gracias por su amable mensaje! No te preocupes, Google me ayuda con la traducción. Tuve que tomar un descanso de mi canal por razones personales, pero pronto publicaré nuevos videos.
Thank you so much for this helpful video!

Excellent Video!!! Thank you so much!!!!
You're so welcome, thanks for your feedback!
your videos are very helpful and useful to me. I did a pirate event last weekend and I'm not a professional facepainter so I was very happy and surprised at the compliments I received for my work that I did and also with my tips I received and the happy little faces after I completed my work. I was asked to come back to another event next weekend which I will be happy to do. I will continue to watch your videos thank you so much.
Thank you very much Jeanette. Glad your party went so well. Be careful, this is how it started for me. One thing let to the next and soon I was doing this professionally. It's fun tough 😉
Great video! Thank you!

Great informative video!
Happy you like it, thanks!
big thank you, thats so helpful!!
You're message just popped up, sorry for the late reply.... Thank you so much!
So glad I found your vid! Thanks so much for the basic kit info! :) my daughter goes crazy for face painting.. And I almost spent a lot trying to get all the colors and right tools.
You're welcome, thank you for your kind words! I know exactly what you mean- The face painting shop owners want to sell you so much stuff you really don't need - or at least not in the quantity it is packaged ... and certainly not for an absolute beginner. Try to buy conservatively at first and see how your daughter comes along. Kids sometimes grow out of a particular phase and end up losing interest. If she sticks with it, you can always add more supplies and buy larger paint containers. That would be my suggestion.
i have been doing face painting as a hobby for events in my town since i was 18, for years i didn't own my material as the school association was lending me the wonderful pro kit they had bought for me and others to use at those events (theater and dance show, national day, school fair etc).
Now though i had to buy my own to do some charity work, so i got a palette with gold, silver, turquoise, pink, coral, brown, yellow, red, blue and some kaki green, along with black and white, i first also bought a "clown white" bottle that ended up being a disapointment as it wasn't opaque at all and hard to blend.
Now i bought better quality cakes in white, black, purple, a greenish blue color that is hard to mix myself, a dark green, a dark red and they were on a buy 3 pay for 2 deal. i already had some loose cosmetic grade glitters and i recently bought some gel glitter gels from snazaroo in gold, silver, diamond and multicolor so i think i'm all set for the next event this sunday!
i just want to go and buy some aloe vera and glycerin to turn my loose glitter into gel as i hate having them fly around as soon as i open the jars.
I also own a lot of "regular" makeup like eyeshadows and such and plan on using them as well^^
Wow, it looks like you're all set! I am not sure that mixing the glitte with gel will be a good idea though because it will erase the color underneath. Better buy small plastic glitter containers with a lid. Good luck and have fun painting!
Thank you Sophie for sharing !
I am stating to do face painting and I been having hard time because of the products that I used. I really appreciated!
Manzanita la payasita I'm glad if I could help a little :) Keep practicing and you will see that the results will come. I am pretty sure that even the greatest face painters struggled at the beginning :)
Thanks so much for making this video I love to face paint. Your video showed me alot of new information!! I have a b day party this weekend so will be applying your teachings to it. Keep up the great work ♡
+Mergen Bucio Thank you so much for your kind words. I'm wish you good luck for your big event and a lot of fun making the kids happy!
Amazing video. Very helpful
Thank you so much Alejandra, I glad it helped!
I am so glad I watched this video! I already had purchase a Wolfe sample palette (12 colours) and a mini Diamond FX rainbow split cake then I realised I have no idea what I am doing! Can't wait to watch your other videos.
Hilary Snoopy Well, it looks like you made excellent choices in choosing your face painting supplies! If you haven't done so already, you can watch the second and third instalment of this series and learn how to use everything. Have fun!
Thank you! Very helpful
+Talis Jacobsen My pleasure! 💖
your the best..thank you
Thank you so much, this means a lot to me!
You're explaining so great!!! You must be very smart woman 🙌🎨
+Baws Makeup (BaWs) I don't think I'm much smarter than anyone but I really appreciate your very sweet words, thank you from the bottom of my heart 💕
very good information, really like your video! Keep the good work!
Yve R That's very kind, thank you so much for your feedback!
Thank you a million you are so helpful
rain kennedy You're very welcome!
Very informative!
Brittany Tollison That's my goal, thank you!
Guilty I purchased alot. Omg. I wish I could found u sooner u r excellent teacher. Thank u
ms guzman37 That's a very common beginner's mistake. I bought so much at first that I could have opened a small shop with all the colours I had :) Nowadays I am a lot more conservative (thank goodness for my finances!) and only buy the products that I tried and love once they run out. Thanks for your feedback!
You are such a very good communicator. Very efficient, with so much info in the amount of time allotted. I take notes on paper so I don't have to watch the video over and over, and I have to click pause after every sentence to write something down. What are the two words you say at 1:33 when you move on to the black paint? It sounds like 'press patters' but that can't be right. I'm new to this and just found your channel today. I can already tell that you are very thorough which is what I like. Not everyone with a channel can do this. For example, to me, 'pearl' always meant a particular color, an off-white like a pearl. Another artist on youtube likes to use terms without first defining them and I hate that. They assume you already know this. So when they said 'pearl' when holding up a paint that wasn't a pearl color, I didn't understand. Now I get it. Also, it's helpful to know in advance of shopping for paint that some manufacturers call it shimmer, or metallic. Avoids confusion later. There's no standardization in the industry. So your explanations are helping understand OTHER people better. Thanks. P.S. How can you possibly have time to respond to every comment? As of now, there are 338 of them. That takes hours and hours.
Thanks Joe. haha, yes, replying to everyone takes time but it's part of the fun with a RUclips Channel. I'm not into the crazy RUclipsr money-making madness. What I like though is getting in touch with my viewers and helping them get into this art form or improve their skills. It's very gratifying to share knowledge and get positive feedback in return. That's what motivates me to go on.
I see what you mean with "pearl". Yes, as you guessed, we don't mean "mother of pearl" but a shimmery look to a specific color. I try to place myself in the shoes I was in when I fist started and couldn't find any information (or very little) or get any answers to my questions. I'm glad that you think this is useful.
Thanks for your lovely feedback! 😘
The word I say at 1:33 is "pressed powders". This is something similar to an eye shadow in terms of consistency, but in a bigger container.
Thanks for sharing your video. I really very much interested to learn face painting because of my daughters. I will do the basic steps first and continue to practice this new skill.
+Mariefe Pascual Good for you! If you have the luck to have daughters, then you will be able to get lots of practice 😉 Good luck and have fun!
Absolutely wonderful video! Loved it!!! I've been contemplating online purchases of paint cakes, split cakes, brushes, etc....and I've been having a difficult time trying to figure out what to do. Thank you for your information -- I think I'll go with the 'starter' kit explained in the your tutorial and 'go from there. Can't wait for your next tutorials -- you do an amazingly incredible job of explaining things so simply :-D
That's so sweet of you, thank you! Positive feedback like yours gives me the energy to continue :) My next video will be on brushes but I will also do a video on split cakes. They're really fun to use but not absolutely necessary in a beginner's kit, in my opinion. Have fun face painting and thanks again!
Thanks so much this is SO helpful now I can't wait to buy my kit 😀
Great, thanks for your feedback! Have fun with your supplies and let me know how you get on!!
Thank you for your knowledge. It was simple and very helpful.
Glad I could help! Thanks for your comment and have a great day!

+riffat said I know exactly what you mean: when I first got started I also bought so much because all the nice colours and glitters were irresistible!!! I reduced my kit a lot since then because now I know which colours and tools I love most. Besides, my bank account couldn't keep up with the expenses 😳 Good luck and have fun painting!
SophiesTips :-) does i really need to learn this from a school . i mean you r my teacher and u teaching so well .but now everyone wants to know where i go to learn face painting
+Riffat Ateeq Thanks, that's so sweet! I'm glad that your creations are getting noticed. Keep up the good work!
Thank u so much.m it was very helpful
I'm so glad it helped. Thanks a lot for your kind words :)
this is very good thank you
You're welcome. Thanks for stopping by and leaving a comment.
Thank you for the great series. Would it be possible for u to make a video dedicated on how to clean and take care of the paints and other products? I would also be interested in what do u do in between kids (for example is it possible to sanitize the brushes in between) and how many brushes /water cups are u using etc.
Thanks for your great suggestion so I will probably need to address this in more details because I get a lot of questions on this. When I work at an event it's absolutely impossible to sanitise the brushes between each child. I just rinse them thoroughly in water and change my water about every half an hour. If I see that a child has a runny nose, a fever or an open wound on his face, I offer to paint something on his arm instead. So far I haven't had any issues working this way. When I face paint in hospital, I use a clean brush and sponge for each child, but this is an exception. Hope this helps.
@@SophiesTipps thank you for the answer ^^
If I may intrude because I'm also interesting about that and your question already helped, but is there a possibility to disinfect the paints themself or is that impossible? because I've been searching about that for a long time and I have not found any information and I want to start working but I don't want to cause any harm to any kids and that's my biggest care- that my supplies would not be disinfected and something would happen.
Also, is there a possibility to disinfect the brushes with rubbing alcohol (the stuff you can get on Pharmacy) between the kids or on brakes so it will be a bit cleaner? is that okay? Will it work?
How about sponges, did u just rinse and use them back or take it from new sponges? @@SophiesTipps
@@khaeriyah6358 I understand everyone's concern regarding safety, especially when working with children. In theory it would be ideal to use one sponge per color and per child and the same for each brush. But the reality of a public event doesn't make this possible at all. I am being very open and straightforward about this and I realize that most face painters would never admit it but the fact is that I have never worked with any face painter who does that. Using separate brushes and sponges would mean that the face painter would need to have hundreds of these items readily available. It is just not feasible. Same issue with sanitizing sponges and brushes in between each child, there is simply not enough time for that. When you have a line of 10+ children waiting, the key thing is to be quick. 5 minutes per child is the norm. So the reality is that sponges and brushes are reused. Personally, when I do an all-day job, I clean my brushes and sponges with soapy water during the mid-day break. I change my rinsing water more often than that. And of course I do a thorough wash of my entire kid after each job. This is how each face painter works, or at least all those I have worked with or witnessed working. As I said in an earlier comment, the situation would be quite different if I worked in a hospital. In this case I would definitely follow stricter guidelines. My personal assumption is that, in a normal event setting, the parents can clearly see that I reuse the same sponges and brushes when they wait in line. If they don't feel comfortable with that, it is their choice and decision to refrain from having their child's face painted. As far as I am concerned, I would never face paint a child who is clearly sick (runny nose or fever, or coughing) or has any face wounds, red eyes, etc. In this case I decline altogether or suggest a small design on their arm. Although I have always reused my sponges and brushes at events, I have never had any issues or complaints in my 15+ years of face painting professionally. Please note that what I wrote reflects my own thoughts about the situation. Each face painter should decide for themselves how they want to approach this issue. As far as I know, there are no set rules on the matter. Hope this helps.
Hi! Which white aquacolor would you recommend for a medium coverage, just to make eyeshadow more pigmented on the skin?
I would recommend any pearl or shimmer face paint that is light in color. The brands Tag or Superstar (FAB) carry really nice colors in this range.
Thank you
You're very welcome!
thank you! very helpful video!
You are very welcome. Thanks for your feedback!
SophiesTips is there a meh brand? Like one that you wouldn't recommend?
meh as in: "not so good"? If that's what you mean, it's a difficult question... Not because I don't want to get in trouble with any brands out there. I really don't care because I am not affiliated with any of them and always give my honest opinion. But difficult because I've experienced in the past that a brand that I don't like might be loved by another face painter. It's not just the product in itself that counts but personal preference in terms of consistency, colors, etc... are also a factor. It's also difficult because there are some brands that I don't like for certain uses and that I love for other uses. For example, I think that Snazaroo is terrible for using with a brush but quite good to use as a base color with the sponge. Wolfe FX is the opposite: great with the brush but too thick and hard to wash off when used with the sponge. Except for the brand "Eulenspiegel" - which is a German brand - I've never hated everything about a single brand. And even Eulenspiegel does good glitter, so there you go. Hope this helps a little...
SophiesTips thanks. It really did help!
I Love this
Yes absolutely, it is so tempting at the beginning to buy a ton of things just because they are pretty and sparkly. This is a lesson I learned the hard way....
Thank you! :-)
You're welcome, glad you liked it!
Your videos are awesome and amazing
+Kayla Whitlock That's very sweet, thank you so much!
Thank you for your video on supplies! I have learned so much by watching this video a few times and taking notes on what to buy to get started! Will look at your other videos to learn how to use them now! :) If i have specific questions that come up as i try to tackle a project Im doing over the next two weeks, can i message you some how to get some advice!?
Thank you for sharing your talent and experience!
Thanks to you for your lovely words. I am glad that my videos could help you get started in face painting. Unfortunately I don't have time to answer questions on PMs but if you have any, feel free to post them in the comments (as you did here) and I will do my best to answer as soon and as thoroughly as possible.
Love your vids
That's really nice to read, thanks a million :)
thank you so much for this video. I;m just starting out and I'm so confused with the huge selection of face paints and I don't want to waste money on something that doesn't work well for me. So this video helps me decide what to buy
That's wonderful. I'm so happy that you found this useful. Thanks for letting me know and good luck on your face painting journey!
thanks so much
My pleasure!
Thank you so much this was veeery helpful! Also I was wondering what was the brand of the color palette you show in the video cause I really like the basic colors it has
I think that this one is the basic small palette from Diamond FX.
Thanks
😍
thank u so much for show your secret, you help me lot to decide to buy the right product. thanks again u amaizing
Thanks to you but taking the time to leave a little note. This means a lot to me!
This is a super duper helpful video and thank you for making it!!! it answered SO many of my questions! I do have one question though- why did you stop making videos? especially these kind of videos with tons of information. in the comment section here you have a lot of good suggestions for more videos for the serious and sadly you stop making videos and I don't know why and I'm actually really sad about that because you are a very good teacher and I would like to learn more from you!
Thank you for your kind feedback. I had to stop making videos due to personal health reasons. I'm hoping to be able to publish a couple of videos before the end of the year but I can't promise anything at this point. I will try my best. 💖
Hi!! What do you think about the brand Grimas? Love your channel!! 🥰
I only have one color (a light purple) that I actually like. The consistency is very soft and I think probably better to use for the base rather than for line work.
Thank you Sophie. I like your videos. Very kind of you to share all you know. I am face painter myself but have only started a few month ago. Did you see the video how to make very good and cheap sponges from hair foam rollers? thank you...
Sabine Brosche Haha! No I didn't see that video but I will have to look it up :) I hope you will enjoy your journey into the world of face painting. It's fun to do and fun to make kids so happy!
Thank you so much for this great video! I am just starting, and had no idea where to begin, but this really helped! One question I have is how much of a difference is there between applying a coat of paint with a sponge vs brush? I'm so glad that you took the time to do this :)
Helena Sverak Thanks for your kind words, Helena! That's a good question. A sponge is used to cover a larger area of the face. It's ideal for the base coat. It can also be used to add a particular structure or shadows and highlights on a color already applied. The sponge will help you achieve a uniform finish if you stipple it on the skin. Brushes are typically used for line work or to delimit the edges of a specific shape. Large brushes can also cover large areas but they will leave brushstroke marks and it will take longer than with a sponge. What I recommend is: use a sponge first to lay down the base color(s) and then switch to brushes for line work and details.
Snazaroo and Wolfe are my favorite
Thanks for your feedback, that's a good combo!
Hi I absolutly Love your videos. Would you be able to do one on your set up and on How you would deal with finishing up and closing the line?
Thank you very much! Yes a video on my set up is planned and will definitely be filmed this year. If I have 10 or more kids waiting in line an hour before the end of my time I go through the kids waiting and write numbers with face paint on their hands. I only plan for 10 kids maximum because I don't want to stress out too much in my last hour. I then tell the kid #10 (or the last in line) that he/she is the last one and would be grateful if he could tell new people coming that the line is closed. While I am painting, I keep an eye on new kids waiting anyway and I tell them myself in necessary. If parents argue, I explain that only the kids with a number on their hands will be face painted. This system works pretty well for me.
ItsZoe Marie yhrhwtryhfyd
ich finde die tipps super
Danke, das ist wirklich lieb und freut mich total!!!
I love your videos, but have a question. You mentioned to use water based products. And recommended brands like Diamond FX and TAG when I have found those brands online they say they are wax based. Are these products safe to use on children? Or should I look strictly for water based products? Thanks!
Maybe I shouldn't have said "water based" but "water soluble". What I meant was that the face paint needs to be activated with water. Diamond FX and TAG are both excellent brands that have been approved by the FDA (and both are water soluble). Hope this helps. Thanks for your feedback!

I love TAG and Wolfe and Diamond FX
So do I !!!! Thanks for your feedback.
Have you tried ruby red paint? And do u like it? What are your thoughts?
No, I haven't but heard good things about it.
Can i use the regular eyeshadow for painting my face ?
You could but you will not get the same result at all. Eye shadows are powder-based so the finish is usually mat or slightly shimmery but the colors and the coverage will never be the same as water-based face painting colors. It depends what kind of look you are going for.
Very good video, done well, thanks, I have used snazaroo.
+Scot Campbell Snazaroo is a good and safe brand but only for the base (not for lifework unfortunately...).
+SophiesTipps Yeah I notice you mentioned that. I want to try new things. I have painted faces in the past. As soon as the holiday window painting season slows up I wanna try painting my face up a bit. You are inspiring.
+Scot Campbell Let me know how you get on 😎
I will. I want to try some wild things using appliances as I am a sculptor and cast pieces in rubber. I want to explore new things, or maybe at least others ideas but make it my own.
