Another company that makes face paint is Mehron. They also make a greasepaint that is used by clowns. When I've clowned, I've used Mehron's greasepaint and it has worked. You can see Mehron at www.mehron.com.

An additional company that makes facepaint and theatrical makeup is Kryolan. They have some very lovely interference paints. You can see Kryolan at www.kryolan.com.

After working with the Birmingham Jaycees on their haunted house for 15 years, I enjoy painting faces that incorporate special effects. A great supplier of special effects makeup and appliances is Bloody Mary. Bobbie Weiner did the makeup for the drowning victims in James Cameron's Titanic. You can see her makeup at www.dearbloodymary.com.

Another resourse for painters is the annual Face and Body Art International Convention that Marcela Murad anf Claudia Banks organize. This is one of the biggest gatherings of face painters and body artists in the country. I have attended the convention every year since 2003.

 

There is a great directory for face painters at www.profacepainters.com. There are artists from all over the world represented there.
