Owl face paint: Just So Festival 2017

Continuing our week of costume and face paint ideas for the Tribal Tournament at Just So 2017, today it’s the turn of the owl tribe. We were owls in our first year at Just So, way back in 2013, and I’ve always had a soft spot for the feathery flock. Here’s my owl face paint, based on the design of this year’s Tribal heads…

Again, I used the Snazaroo party set of face paint, and a Snazaroo set of brushes.

1. Use a sponge to go over most of the face in an orange/brown mix, leaving the eye area.
2. Use a sponge to add white to the eye area (in a circular shape.
3. Add the colourful details – green stripes by the eyes, and red feathers bordering the eyes.
4.  Finish with the black detailing – use the finest brush you have for this.

Read on to my next post for a wonderfully fluffy owl mask with full instructions from my good friend Victoria. Check it out if you’re tempted to join the wise tribe this year…
