1 Your makeup bag can help you make it.

We all have a makeup bag full of products, yet we usually use the same 2-4 products each time. So why not use that makeup bag to its full potential?

Your old eyeshadow will be a perfect addition to your DIY face paint to give it that extra pop. Besides the eyeshadow, you will need vaseline and you can make the perfect face paint.

2 Crayons are a go-to.

Kids will love using this as face paint, too.

As a little girl, I used to love getting my face painted. I also loved coloring with crayons. So why not give your kids the best of both worlds, by making a face paint using crayons?

Although you only use one crayon to make the face paint, if you get the 24 pack of crayons you can make 24 different face paints, and they are totally safe to put on your kids. Check out this article on how to make DIY face paint with crayons.

3 Products in your pantry could just do the trick.

Do you have a pantry stocked full of ingredients you maybe have used once in a blue moon this summer? Well, let’s find another use for those aside from that cooking you do every three months.

Flour is a great pantry product you can use to make face paint. The ingredients are super easy to bring with you if you want to pack it up and bring it to a festival, concert, children’s birthday or even a family reunion this summer.

All you need is, flour, water, vegetable oil and natural colors — super easy to just pack up and go. It’s also non-toxic, which we love! Check out this article on how to make it yourself.

4 The typical face paint: paint.

I know this one sounds like I’m taking it straight out of DIY face paint for dummies, but I’m not. You can actually use paint to make face paint — but acrylic paint to be more specific.

Not the paint you use on your house. That would be really bad. Please don’t do that. Make sure you are getting a washable paint, and use these tips to make your paint-based face paint!

5 Baby powder is one of the most useful products around.

Baby powder. It’s uses are honestly endless at this point. You can use it as dry shampoo. It helps remove grease stains. It repels ants, and so much more. You can also use it to make a face paint this summer!

It’s really simple to do and is a perfect DIY face paint recipe to try out if you’re hesitant about making one. You can test it out as many times as you want, because baby powder comes in such large bottles.

Your perfect DIY face paint is just around the corner, or more like down the hall in your house, to be honest. You most likely have many of these products already. And if you don’t, they’re super easy to find and not that expensive.

Face paint is perfect for everyone — moms, kids, festival goer, hell, anyone who loves a good DIY face paint.
