Tulip Face and Body paint

Went to Hobby Lobby and found a display with Tulip body art stuff I was a little upset thinking this is not going to be very good for our business . I'm hoping we don't get less booking for Birthday parties because mom thinks she can do the painting herself .... Please let me know if you used them and what you think of them ..... Thank You Denise Just of
Just Creations

Try typing "tulip" into the search box in the top right (right under the shop banner) You will be reading for hours.

Thank you sweet I'm new to this . I guess I'll be busy reading ....lol

Thank you Denise ...... you know how you hear ppl say "I can do that" well now they can .

Nope. Buying some face paints doesn't automatically give you the skill to use them.

I know well said but you know how ppl. think .

As we say in the south Bless their Hearts .

Yeah, you can add "Bless their heart, so and so is just _____________ (fill in the blank and get away with it)

I had a lady from our local council say "that looks easy" she proceeded to buy some paint and was really dishearten on her first spideyman,,,She ended up hiring me for their Christmas party. It is not as easy as it looks and us passionate people have had the tenacity to practise practise practise ..Dont worry,, Have the tenacity and the passion and no one can beat that.

I had that fear too, as a Michael's is opening soon in my town. I was really excited to finally have such a great source of crafty stuff, but also worried that they will probably carry face paints. People in my city are very cheap, and 80% of "face painters" here are volunteers, so it's hard to convince people to pay for face painting, aside from festivals.

I'm trying to reassure myself by reading the other posts about how staining Tulip is, so I'm sure some people will use them once then realize that they aren't great. We'll see what happens... I'm just hoping people will realize that professional face painting looks better, and definitely doesn't stain like that.

Just make sure your work has a wow factor and people will eventually realise that they have no hope! Haha

D.

It's still in the Michael's in Little Rock but not in JoAnn's. Haven't tried anything but Tulip silver but heard that everything but black, white, and silver stain badly! Seriously though, if you put in the hours learning and practicing, how could you NOT be better than someone who JUST buys the paint and tries to use it. Might as well let the kids paint themselves! I'm more ticked at the "pros" using craft paint and sharpies!

Omg SHARPIES that's crazy .....All I know before I painted on a face I took months out my life and many hours researching paints and how to videos and I'm an artist and makeup artist I paint on everything but if I'm going to do something I'm going to do right . so I'm a just a little pissed off about it ...... I live in a town that everyone is cheap as hell ... i just have to put it in my head that i'm good and that's that . I think you are all AMAZING BY THE WAY

Ok I picked up the tulip body art round brushes they come in a pack of 4 I paid $7.99 for them nice looking Brushes but I must say they are the worst brushes I have ever used ..... They don't hold the paint in the brush .... The brushes are very much like fabric brushes or maybe not .. Please let me know if anyone has tried them ...
