Holi face paint designs: a cheek design, a half-face rainbow, a child's butterfly

Face paint looks to wear to a Holi party or paint on a child's cheek. The nine pictures are portraits, each face wearing one painted design: a peacock feather and colour splashes on a cheek, a half-face of pink, yellow, green and blue stripes, or a small butterfly round a child's eye. The finishes are fine brush, glitter and powder smudge. Type a different design, such as a tiger face, and the same finishes carry it.

Frequently asked questions

Are the colours skin-safe?

The fine brush style is drawn in water-based face paint. Check the label of any paint you buy for skin safety.

What is the difference between the three finishes?

Fine brush is crisp, even colour with thin white outlines, glitter adds a fine shimmer and a few small gems, and powder smudge is soft matte colour fading into bare skin.

Can I ask for a different design?

Yes. A design you type is a request; the nine samples stay as shown.

About toile

This page is a showcase and a starting point: nine samples already rendered, three readings of the pack crossed with three styles, each shown at the size and ratio it was made for. Take any of them further on the wall with a few words, or ask for all nine again under your own direction; a sign-in keeps what you make, and it is free while Toile is new. The recipe behind each sample — the subject, the style, the palette, the framing — travels with the image rather than staying private to the render: it is in the alt text of every sample and in the page's own structured data, so a search engine reads the same handles a person would.
