Makeover Games and Face Paint


There is something freeing about face paint. We stand in lines at carnivals to get something fun drawn on our faces and we are thrilled to draw all over our faces to support our favorite teams. But face paint can be used in some excellent makeover games as well.

When playing with face paint, pay attention to how much you can actually do with just a few sticks of colors. You can paint your entire face a bold color, much like Blue Men, or give yourself a bit of animal appeal with animal stripes and a dark nose. You have the option of using a little or a lot and it’s great fun either way.

Favorite ways to play makeover games with face painting include designing faux masks for Halloween and putting together spirited looks for team sports and such. Don’t be afraid to go over the top with the face paint for Halloween events of all kinds. You might even get lucky and be able to wear some of your Halloween face to school. If that’s the case, bring your entire case of colors, because you know you’ll be getting requests the rest of the day.
