Tanya Perez26 May 2025

Joy was truly wonderful; her designs are both beautiful and creative, and we had the pleasure of seeing many happy children. She arrived promptly and maintained excellent communication about the event. Joy also made sure that every child felt included and had the opportunity to participate. She put a lot of effort into making my son's Christening special, and I sincerely appreciate all her hard work. I wholeheartedly recommend her and thank her for everything.

Zara from hobgoblin face painting came on Saturday to do face paint for my daughters 3rd birthday party and she was amazing, she was great with all the children and her face painting was perfect. She didn’t rush and spent time with each person she did, I couldn’t recommend her enough and will definitely be asking her to come again.

Zoe was wonderful. We booked her last minute because our first face painter had a family emergency and Zoe stepped in to help. Thank you!

Yanthia was great, she arrived early and literally painted faces the whole 2 hours. The quality was great and she was very friendly.

"We were so impressed with Clemency and her painted faces. All the children were over the moon and looked fantastic. She was very professional and had a great little set up going on. Would definitely recommend and will use again in the future. Have a fair few more parties to arrange. This was the 1st of many. Thank you very much ."

You can expect all the children and parents at your event to be wowed by the facepaints they receive. I love to work from a word design board so I can tweak my designs. This is a wonderful way to work as this means that everyone is slightly different even if they ask for the same. If I and another entertainer will be there I will create a list of anyone that wants to be painted so that they don’t miss out on anything. I am a fairly fast painter compared to some.

About supplier

I am a very creative person naturally and I am so lucky to have a job that I absolutely adore. I will work with you to help make booking my services as seem free as possible. Once I am at your event all I will need is people to paint. Children flock to me as soon as I open my case :)
