Kate did my face painting for Dia de Los Muertos this year and she did an excellent job. People were complementing me on my face paint and taking pictures with me. It lasted all night and didn't run or flake off. She was very professional and we had good conversation while she was transforming me. The details on the cheeks were my favorite part of my face paint. I'll definitely be hitting her up again for some face paint work in the future!

We love all the face painting Kate did for our son 7th Birthday party. She got so many compliments from other parents as well. Pricing was very reasonable. Kate is talented, on time, flexible, and a pleasant to have for your party. Highly recommended and we will definitely book Kate for our next party.
