Design 1 Step 1
Use a damp sponge (not wet) to shade the cheeks in pink and yellow. Layer this with simple petals in white and lilac.

Design 1 Step 2
When you’re happy with the base, it’s time to add some detail. Use a fine brush to outline the petals. Here I outlined with yellow and blue.
Design 1 Step 3

Keep going with the fine detail, dotting the centre of the flowers until you are happy and adding flourishes with green paint. A black outline can make the main flower stand-out

 

Add a floral headband and let the party begin!

Design 2 Step 1
Use a damp brush, (not wet), to lightly outline the floral design. It looks wonderful on the forehead and the cheek. Keep it simple- you can add more detail later. Here it’s great to add in a few different shades of petals.

Design 2 Step 2

Using the same technique, some detail with a fine brush and black paint to make some of the petals stand out.

 

Then use a new brush to make the little yellow dots to really bring the look to life and add some detail. How about adding in simple little bees at this stage?

Design 2 Step 3
Keep going with the fine detail, dotting the centre of the flowers until you are happy.

Now you have a fun festival look that will look amazing on children and adults of any age!

 

To really get into the spirit of the festival, why not use the same technique to paint the arm too? Use white highlights for added flourish!
