Five Minute Faces - Face Painting Ideas Book
The book gives you good ideas for face painting but to be honest after I'd read reviews I expected a bigger number of them. Also depends on the age of children you face paint for: my son was 18 months at the time and he was really only into animals rather than other characters, so I found the animal choice quite not enough in this book... Still fine. Mind you, you'd need a few decent brushes and some decent paints too , not the cheap £1-5 pounds per lot ones (if you want that tiger or witch be recognizable)...
