True sign of a professional. You made it look so easy! Watched this a few times and then tried my first one so confidently! The side mirroring my drawing hand wasnt TOO bad, but that other side was atrocious LOL! Thanks for the video. Looks like I'll be practicing this for a while!

[@EricYoungvall]

Thank you Ashlea! Very elegant for such a simple butterfly. I like how you soften the edge with a dry brush. Going to add this one for sure.

[@SOULarLioness]

Those colors are GORGEOUS!

[@nedaabbasi]

This is absolutely lovely and easy! Thanks for the tutorial.

[@skywebb4021]

this helped me out so much and going to be a great idea to try out when i do face painting for the jubilee weekend next week thank you so much your a life saver and super talented.

[@AshleaHenson]

Light Green and Blue look lovely, especially with a dark Blue outline.

[@duddinw8805]

This is true to the title-so simple and concise. I am so grateful to you.

[@susiepummill9391]

i love watching and rewatching this video- it is so very helpful and I appreciate your time and sharing.

[@AshleaHenson]

Thanks so much! Yes I always use half a sponge, I find it easier as it fits better in the creases round the eyes and nose.

[@Yabumotokrystalkandz]

Please recommend your brands of paints, brushes, and glitter for face painting. Please do more tutorials on fast clean up when you've made a mistake on someone's designs (in need of ideas to work faster). Thanks and keep up the great work. Thanks for always responding to all your viewers and fans!!!! I'm a huge fan!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@calypsowarrior9061]

Best tutorial I seen for face painting. You are a born teacher. Thankyou

[@MesereteUzondu]

I Love all of your work Ashlea, you were one of my inspirations to start doing face painting, and you still continue to be an inspiration up to this day. Thanks a lot! Much Love! Bless!

[@TheSurprises711]

You make it look effortless! I love the simplicity and how little of the face it actually covers - absolutely beautiful!!! Thank you for the tutorial :)

[@AshleaHenson]

TheSurprises711 Ahh! Thanks very much :)

[@NoOne-xx9xh]

I love this design. I hope to go into the face painting business professionally at this theme park because just the thought of making children happy as i was when i was a child getting my face done makes it less of a job but of a happy skill. I have some skill but i want to expand my horizon and your videos truly are simple and easy to get started with. Thank you for all the hard work that you do and i cannot wait to catch up on the other videos i have missed.

[@AshleaHenson]

You can do if you find it easier, I just prefer one at a time as I have more control over the smaller tip of the sponge. Whatever works for you x

[@bjad3032]

Very nice! Thanks for sharing. I would choose a different placement for the antennas on an older face.. They would really accentuate my "11s" (deep lines there). But that's an easy fix to relocate

[@zacharyshanley5894]

I love Ashlea Henson she an great face painter I love watching her Face Painting Videos Ashlea Henson is my favorite Face Painter

[@carolinabalbin5710]

[@MrsTwinks75]

This is lovely Ashlea. I never outline in black for little girls but I think I will try as this looks so pretty. Thank you x

[@elviraarciniega7909]

Stunning! And you make it look effortless. Thinking about joining the face painting world. Although I know for a fact that there's amazing talent out there, my goal is no to compete, but to be a good artist and be able to work with kids. It's my passion! Thanks!!!

[@meilee44]

OMG! So gorgeous! It was very quick, which I greatly appreciate. When you have a line of girls waiting to be painted, quick and gorgeous moves things along! Thanks for sharing!

[@nishy81]

[@anncollins8087]

Ashlee you have a great talent and enjoy watching you face paint your own face,,that is amazing...question: where do you buy those great spounges and where do you buy the glitter......another question: When you are first developing a character face; what / or who do you paint on to begin to make a prototype?

[@annalisehare9948]

This looks amazing! I am 11 and I am starting a business in a month

[@marielleb5561]

[@jasonwatson3951]

Ashlea, what is your secret to getting those perfect white dots? I have not mastered that yet. Also, are you just dipping a dry finger in dry glitter or is that some kind of gel? Thank you so much for sharing these videos! God Bless.

[@AngelaSmith_1970]

Gorgeous butterfly 🦋 look ✨💃🏻✨

[@danamariehassanali7352]

[@Lmontana33]

Those colors are very vibrant ! is it neon colors ?

[@kristithompson3212]

Love your videos! Thank you for doing them. Curious...I noticed you place your glitter at the end, how do you get it to stay when the base paint is dry?

[@soleil4634]

Wow that looks so amazing good job!

[@AshleaHenson]

Thanks a lot. You should definitely start, it really is the best job xx

That's incredible!

[@ImaUnicorn]

woww so pretty i love it!!!

[@nurlaila9771]

hi Ashle.wonderful work l enjoy your tutorials

[@kfmassingham5186]

Do you have any suggestions on how to keep kids still when you're painting them?! I practice lots of my designs on myself at home and they look fine but when I do them on kids, they don't look too good because the kids move around or squint when they close their eyes so it's quite hard:( ...really love this design by the way!

[@princesahemosa1896]

Me encanta!!!

[@hughesevents]

Superb, you make it look effortless.

[@TexasVents]

This is fabulous work!

[@Aleu]

so pretty!

[@blueyes1781]

What # Loew Cornell brush did you use to make all the details ? When I click on the link it does not work. TIA! And, thanks for teaching!

[@zleach131]

Just love your stuff!!!!!!!

[@tharamaha3722]

[@angelaacero8504]

[@marinaleajakarta9895]

What brand of face painting do you use?

[@derwinsadiwa4608]

[@Artbyally-k8k]

My first face painter I followed

[@paulinapaez6414]

Me declaro fan número 1 eres la mejor

[@melbeans2013]

I don't have a dark pink can i just mix another colour to make it darker? x

[@Norasein2]

Beautiful!!!! You're a wonderful artist! But I no longer use glitter of any kind. Accidentally got some into my eyes and the glitter had to be removed by lazar because the pieces became in-beded deeply into my eyes. Now a small cataract has formed over the one "glitter" spot. better me then a small child

[@karawilson2406]

The glitter totally makes the design.

[@missckip]

what is the name of the pink you use? or is it just a rich, deep pink?

[@rutheproppi6265]

Hello: you are great. Please tell me what is the name and size of the paint brush you are using for the black paint outline.Brava. R

[@lanag300]

Could you tell us about the tools and type of paint you use please?😊

[@vickywatts6429]

I love you art work keep up the good work

[@roromas1681]

Hello please where can i have the same quality of painting? Thank you

[@valentinagirlado3594]

what kind of brushes are you using?

[@AshleaHenson]

The exact colour is listed at the end but I think its called Dark Pink x

[@joeytafoya9779]

does the paint itches a lot. did your power go out before

[@nicoleadiaz1]

IS that a Loew Cornell golden brush handle?And what number is it?

[@jayebaker9707]

What kind of brushes do you use

[@andreazafaralla8944]

This was so helpful. Thank you!

[@35myemjolo]

Ashley.... Where can I purchase the paints you use? Thanks! ;)

[@jswatson94]

How do you get your white paint so opaque? I also have trouble getting perfect round dots. Wrong brush maybe? Thin paint?

[@AshleaHenson]

jswatson94 I really load up a lot of paint, so it's very wet but not so much that it will drip.

[@Laura-Lee]

It's a simple and beautiful concept, but I have the feeling MY hand isn't going to be as cooperative to me as yours is to you. Mine will probably end up like a pink/purple blob.

[@AshleaHenson]

Hi, no these are just regular colours. They do look bright though :)

[@rajshreesaha05]

What kind of paints we should use ?

[@KarlaFacePainting00]

Are you from England?

[@breezy501]

So great! Love your work!

[@johanna4nails424]

I'd like to thank you personally for recommending magicbox superstar paints-real gamechanger! Xx

[@dianavaladez2908]

This is so cute

[@corinne9004]

very cool 🎉❤I love it

[@miniperez69]

do you have any other color combinations that work perfect as this?

[@zleach131]

And, OMG, love your accent!!!

[@phoenix0909]

I'm having problems doing good dots, they always turn out more like blobs. Do you think this is a brush problem or a paint problem?

[@ashleycatrillo5303]

I find the best dots come from a nice waxy paint (diamond FX, wolfe, tag) and a small brush (a 2 round). Anything else makes it blobby.

[@helenortega22]
