Awesome!
As a make-up artist I was excited to get this book for both the little kiddie make-up and the Scary make-ups. The step by step directions make it a no brainer! Can't wait to paint on my lil one!

Beautiful step-by-step illustrations that my (talented) 12 year old granddaughter could follow. Very clever and varied makeup design with description of techniques. Good for theatre design classes through high school. Very pleased with this purchase.

Great book, duplicated information
If you don't already have the first version of this great book by the fabulous Wolfe brothers, then put this one in your shopping cart immediately! It is a fabulous and highly comprehensive resource for anyone interested in learning or getting better at applying character face pain for Halloween, theater, or just for fun. HOWEVER - If you already own the Wolfe Brother's Extreme Face Painting book - the one with the bright pink cover - don't bother with this one, because with the exception of the revised cover, the contents are exactly the same, and there is no instructional DVD like the first one had. But it is a great book none the less, and would make an excellent gift choice for a makeup artist or face painter.

This book is so cool. Breakdowns of looks make it easy to replicate and some small techniques helped me improve my face painting skills. 10/10 would recommend for any new face painters or artists
