Sorry this pro can’t do your job, but we know other pros who can.
Introduction: Over here at Face Paint by Heliz, we really love working with our clients to make their event memorable. We make sure to arrive on time, keep prices affordable, and work with any space we're required to work at. There was a time we had to make a table out of crates and a board we found in the back of a party! Each event we've worked at is definitely unique and we love it! We are definitely friendly people and we pride ourselves on creating works of art with different elements such as highlights, shadows, and we also use glitter. In addition, we use Mehron face paint, which is hypoallergenic and water-based. This means that it's great for children who have sensitive skin and it comes right off when you need it to. All you need is a wet rag or even baby wipes work just fine. Our favorite part about all of this is watching the children see themselves in the mirror for the first time after their face is complete. The smiles that we get back are priceless! Once we're done, they rush to show their loved ones and can't stop looking in the mirror, which tells us we've made their day! And that's one of the best feelings in the world! We absolutely love catering to what the child has asked us to do, whether that means lots of color, something scary, or anything else they request. We also really enjoy working with children of all different kinds. Sometimes parents feel the need to warn us about their "hyper" child and then they're amazed at how still they are when they sit with us. They're just so excited about what they're getting on their face that they don't move a muscle. We usually strike up a conversation with the children and they end up asking us questions as well. It's an absolute pleasure to work with kids!

FAQs

  • What is your typical process for working with a new customer?

    Typically, I have the customer send me information about their event via email so I can type up a very basic agreement. Once they review it and confirm the information is correct, the customer and I are required to sign it. The completed agreement and deposit (half of the fees charged) must be collected at least four weeks prior to the event.

  • What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?

    Helizhabeth is a certified school psychologist and teacher in the state of New Jersey. She has worked with children of all different ages and abilities and is therefore very familiar with encouraging them to be comfortable when they sit with her to have their face painted. Her experiences and training have taught her to be patient while children adjust to the brushes, sponges, and paints that are used. Rosely is an engineering student who enjoys making children happy. She's had several years of experience with children in different roles and is familiar with various approaches to their uniqueness. Clients have expressed many times that they appreciate her professionalism as well as her sweet-natured and warm personality.

  • How did you get started doing this type of work?

    Helizhabeth volunteered to face paint at a relative's event in April 2016. Her family and friends were amazed at how talented she was that first time around. At that time, she decided this was something she really enjoyed and has face painted ever since. Rosely began face painting in April 2017. Since a very early age, she has expressed her creative side. While she searched for a job as a college student, she decided to join Face Paint by Heliz to marry her desire to express her creativity as well as her happiness when she works with children. The rest is history!
