I have had the incredible pleasure and luck to have the chance to work with Heather of Maximum Glitter and want to highly recommend her and her team to be the amazing artist who deliciously decorates the magnificent people who are at your next excellent event!
She is a master at creating the best possible experience for all those whom she decorates, knows, and works with.
Only hire Heather if you want high quality service and the most gorgeous decorations on the attendees of your event.

I have met Heather at other events but have also had her as a guest at Ten Thousand Villages. In addition to the truly beautiful work that she does she is extremely easy to work with. Both with us and customers and children. She is very knowledgeable of the materials and history of henna and does a good job of explaining it to those she works with. We have been thrilled to have her at the store. We love her and so do our customers!

Heather painted a Mardi Gras mask on my face for a special weekend at the Renaissance Festival. I'm sorry I don't have a photo of it! It was lovely, accented my festival garb without being over the top, and I got many many compliments on it :)

I have used Heather several times for face painting special events at my toy store. She is responsive, professional and very easy to work with. Children love to watch her create designs on others as much as they enjoy having their own face painted. Her talent shines through on their happy faces! I would highly recommend her for any social or business event!!

Maximum Glitter has worked for the Autism Center of Pittsburgh on many occasions and always leaves the kids smiling ear to ear. They are incredibly talented artists -- whether doing intricate designs or painting butterflies on a five year old's face. I highly recommend their services! Always on time, cordial and professional.
You guys rock.– Cindy
Question and answer
Q. Describe the most common types of jobs you do for your clients.
A. I do mostly birthday parties with face painting.
Henna is usually private appointments or special event.
I do a lot of bar and bhat mitzvahs!
Q. Describe three recent jobs you've completed.
A. The last job I did was Family night at Chick-fil-a in Eastgate Plaza. I paint faces there the first Tuesday of each month. This month they also had a balloon artist there and I had a photographer come to take all the kids pictures! We were very busy and I painted *alot* of faces! It was loads of fun!
Before that the last two jobs I did were drawing henna. One at Point Park College in Pittsburgh and the other at Carlow College in Oakland. I often get called in by the local colleges for diversity days, ethnic festivals or student appreciation events. I'm always very busy but I have a book of designs that I know off by heart and can draw them in under 2 minutes in most cases.
My next job is a week of traveling to each of the CCAC campuses to draw henna ending with Spring Carnival at CMU. I'm really looking forward to that!!
Q. What advice do you have for a customer looking to hire a provider like you?
A. Know what to look for.
Black Henna contains PPD (an ingredient in hair dye) that is unsafe for use on the skin. Though it may leave a fast dark stain, it can also cause permanent sensitivity or scarring.
Face Paint cannot be FDA approved. The FDA does not approve any cosmetics. At best the products can claim to be FDA "Compliant".
Non-toxic only means NOT POISON. Just because something is not poison does not mean it's safe for use on your child's sensitive face.
Professionals should all carry their own liability insurance. ASK for proof of insurance. If it cant be provided your setting yourself up for problems with a non-professional.
Q. Why does your work stand out from others who do what you do?
A. Im all about the glitter! Im a girly girl who loves pink, sparkle and glam! I can do a super scary monster face for a boy...but wow that monster sure looks a lot more bold when we add the gold glitter dust to it!
I think glitter just adds that magical shimmer to my body art and everyone loves it!
I even put glitter on my henna. it makes the greenish brown paste sparkle while it's staining.
glitter tattoos are the best! I can draw with a clear waterproof adhesive and color the tattoos with glitter!
I even glitter my airbrush tattoos!
We NEVER charge extra for glitter!!!
Q. What do you like most about your job?
A. The absolute best thing about this job is the smiles on the children's faces after you do a beautiful face on them. The first time I did an event I went home with such a sense of accomplishment...I'd have worked for free that day!! In fact I think I offered to.
I can make a child's day just a little happier by sharing my art...isnt that what it's all about?
Q. What questions do customers most commonly ask you? What's your answer?
A. The most common question I get asked by kids is "Are you an artist?" I always tell them that Im a face painter...but I guess I am a face artist arent I?
The most common question asked by parents is, " Do you do parties?" and...well of course we do!!
