I bought the black white silver and gold ones thinking they would help me with lining and fine detail...... not so. They smell kinda like a texta, and you have to redip the applicator thingy over and over and over, everytime you do a detail. You also have to hold the little pot in one hand when you redip as it's such a snug fit you have to pull the lid and the pot with two hands. This doesn't work for me and I find the little sponge ...

(like the one just posted in NY, there is one seat left) I live in WI and would be willing to travel to attend some of the activities but would need some time to save money and make arrangements for my kids (and husband ) I know about Fabiac and is La Fete every year?

Are there a set group of full faces/cheek art you'd recommend mastering before venturing out into the public? Either I picture myself having to tell someone I can't do their request, or I try it anyway, and fail miserably (like with my daughter, who now only wants Disney princesses painted on her, and I tried Ariel and look at her reaction!)
