How to Face Paint for a Spiderman Mask

Spider-Man face paint can be fun at kids parties.

Facepainting is a popular form of entertainment at children's parties. There are many designs that you can apply, and Spider-Man is a likely request. You can paint Spider-Man's mask with only three colors and a few brushes. With relatively little practice, you can have the kids at your party web slinging just like their friendly neighborhood superhero.

Things You'll Need

• Glass of water
• Pancake facepaint in white, red and black
• Sponges
• Brushes

Instructions

1. Wet a brush or sponge with water and rub it against white pancake facepaint to activate it.

2. Paint a white teardrop shape over the eyes and onto the forehead. Position the tips of the teardrops diagonally going toward the temples.

3. Paint the rest of the face with red pancake facepaint, using a sponge or brush.

4. Outline the white eyes with black pancake facepaint using a thin brush.

5. Paint a black asterisk shape onto the face. The first line should go from the forehead, over the nose and to the chin. Add the horizontal and diagonal lines intersecting between the eyes. Do not paint in the white eye area.

6. Connect the lines with a series of web-shaped circles radiating out from the center. Do not paint in the white eye area.
