While there is a lot of free information on both Face Paint Heaven and other websites, a face painting book can be a worthwhile investment.

With a good quality book, you will have a whole range of face painting ideas ready to try out on kids, clients or of course on yourself. You often get additional information too on face painting tips, tricks and techniques.

How useful your face painting book will be depends on whether the designs are well-suited to your level of experience. A beginner might struggle with one book and fly through another, while a professional will find a book for the face painting novice uninspiring.

Here we will take a look at some of the most popular and highly-rated face painting books currently on the market.
