Three Horse Power- Unicorn Face Painting Tutorial

[@sarakuzminski159]

As a new face painter I really appreciate you sharing your designs and teaching us

[@colleencollins547]

This is amazing! Thank you for taking the time to show how subtle differences can make whole new designs. I really love your style!

[@fairyfox]

Thank you so much!

[@amberscatina2715]

I could watch you paint lines all day !!

[@fairyfox]

Thanks Amber, it is a passion!

[@WeirdoSchool]

Awesome tutorial and designs! Thanks for breaking these down!

[@paulamoors]

I love starblends. I use the red for Spider-Man.

[@debddit]

I'm so glad you are back to doing tutorials! My son says you "are the best face painter in the whole entire world"! 😁

[@fairyfox]

What a cutie! I tell people all the time that our industry is the one place where an artist can bask in feedback, and not be demolished by criticism. Tell your son he made me smile/ :)

I have always struggled doing horses and unicorns... you have simplified it brilliantly thankyou. I am going to have a go this way.

[@artistheart5272]

Really like to see you do this on a kids face.. I can paint on a flat surface that's stationary all day long.. but throw in a time limit, some wiggles and contours of the face and its a whole different ballgame.

[@fairyfox]

I can relate in reverse! painting on a flat stationary surface makes me nervous. Hahaha. Try and think of it as doing make-up instead of a painting, the outlining is the eyeliner. -With the time limit and the wiggles , they go hand in hand. The quicker you go- the fewer wiggles you have to deal with. On a really little kit I will often sing a nursery rhyme or count, something they are familiar with, so they have something to pay attention to that will keep them still. I think I have this on a face in a speed video.

[@alfa19716]

waoooo how grateful I am for having taught me what I looked for so much. She is the only person and the only video she teaches with such accuracy as drawing, not just a unicorn, but a horse and a zebra. Most importantly, you teach how to locate the physical features of these. Thank you!!!🤗 and Blessings 🕊🕊🕊

[@sherisissom4341]

This is a fantastic tutorial! Thanks so much for the simplicity! Your painting is gorgeous!

[@aprildamski8365]

Awesome! Wonderful lesson in different brush strokes!

[@fairyfox]

Thanks April.

[@BettyButtonsTheClown]

Beautiful ~ beyond words! I needed a boost to get more life into my unicorn. Thank you, so much, for teaching this. The strokes are perfect in themselves and in the way they give a unique look and life to each image.

[@fairyfox]

I am always amazed at how a little tweak here or there can completely change the look! I am really glad this helped you Betty.

I have seen these designs on children and thought, “I wish I knew how to do that!” Your tutorial made it simple for me to follow and I can paint them now!!! I’m just working on making my pony’s eye look happy instead of angry 😂

[@fairyfox]

So true! Every once in a while I still paint an angry unicorn! Haha Haha. I am so glad it helped you out.

[@fairyfox]

Way to stretch yourself, I hope you love painting unicorns!

[@daisymay9717]

Very helpful! Love this video!! ❤💕❤💕❤

[@Iys69]

I hate to sound repetitive, but I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS!!! I can watch them all day long. BTW... I noticed your hair is so short, you look beautiful in every way. 😍

[@fairyfox]

Thanks Iris- we film a bunch, and then share and splice together footage from all over- I am surprised sometimes by how much it has changed when we pull an older design up! hahaha

[@alejandraortiz5291]

hermosoooo, gracias por compartir tus tecnicas, ya me pondre a practicarlo 😍

[@crist9797]

Thank you! So lovely to watch. Is your star blend the alabaster or white colour? Just want to make sure I’m getting the right one. Also does the applicator come with it?

[@fairyfox]

It is white- the applicators don’t come with- but they are cheap, about 60cents a piece . Lollipop sponge applicators.

[@mariaperezroca9494]

I love it , Thanks for sharing

[@aprildamski7372]

Thank you so much! I really learned a lot!

[@sammason5020]

Thank you, thank you, OMG thank you.. Unicorns have been my nemesis.. & even though I have them on my board I dread the....''' a unicorn please'''... I haven't got it fully down to where I am really really happy with the design yet, but your tutorial has helped tremendously... Thank you again xx lol.. just realised my son must have logged on my laptop... my name is Dawn xx

[@maryann3156]

It looks beautiful and the way you paint it looks so easy 😊👍 May I ask which brush and colors do you use?

[@fairyfox]

You caught me Marianne! I am awful at sharing what supplies I am using! I normally use a 1/2 filbert protege brush or a 3/4 in flat brush for the manes. I use a mix of onestrokes by tag. I hope that helps!

[@Afteryouregone90]

What brand of sponge are you using for the first step?

[@watermelon2712]

I'm gonna practice right now.... thank you for the tutor

[@fairyfox]

Have fun! They are such cuties!

[@G.L.M11]

Thanks so much for this wonderful tutorial! Certainly the best that I have come across in a long time in regard to this topic. Laura, would you mind sharing the info about the brushes U used? Pretty clear about the LC #2, but I'm courious about the black one and the chisel ones, thanks a million!!!!!

[@fairyfox]

I am so sorry, but I have bad news, the black one I have been told is no longer made, and the chisel is actually a filbert that comes in a pack with 14 other brushes! So sad, finding the perfect brush. I do recommend trying out a filbert that is bigger (size 10?) it gives you such organic lines, for things like hair- I love it!!!

[@UkNging]

Thank you very much for sharing . Skill for life💕

[@fairyfox]

I just wish I knew how many I have painted, I am sure the number is in the thousands. Playing two truths and a lie, I could always throw that in! hahaha

[@maggiegodoy7012]

I love this video!!! what are you practicing on???? I'm looking for something to practice on. Thank you so much!! Please keep making videos

[@fairyfox]

Thank you! Practicing is so helpful! I am using paper in this video- because I needed it for the powder to show up on camera. I have tried different practice materials, but one of my favorite is a silicone baking mat- you can buy them at any box store- they feel quite close to skin- and are cheap.

[@vkl821]

Hi, what is the powder you use for the bases of thier faces?

[@aramend.3563]

Hermoso!!dónde adquirir material?

[@fairyfox]

Sillyfarm.com

[@maggiegodoy7012]

can you do a mermaid please??? like you did the horses, really nice and slow giving all the details....your horse video is the best!!! thank you

[@CHRIS80MIC]

I LOVE your work! What kind of paper are you painting on? Is there a particular kind we should use to practice on?

[@fairyfox]

No, not at all. Every surface you practice on will teach you new skills. Skin is always best, but when it isn't there...Anything can be painted on!

[@olgabergkamp6028]

love it

[@irashamkova129]

Спасибо!

[@kaylalester8936]

What type of brush are you using for the mane?

[@fairyfox]

I use a 1/2 inch filbert. It works so well, and seems to fit all the sizes I need to do.

[@jennclark9646]

This was soooo helpful. thanks

[@fairyfox]

You're welcome! It really isn't something you can get around.

[@tramainebennett8139]

Love love love ☺️

[@veragiles981]

Thanks, Lara! A great tutorial - so clear even I might be able to try it! Can I ask you what you are practicing on, please? It looks like cartridge paper but I know lots of people use special boards.

[@fairyfox]

No problem, it is actually just a piece of blue paper. I used it so you could see the white powder. I always recommend practicing on skin if you can- but when you can't silicone baking mats are a good cheap option.

[@vaniibalo8932]

Me súper enamoré que belleza ❣

[@rachaeltang9247]

What type of applicator did you use for the Starblends ?

[@fairyfox]

It is a sponge that comes with the 9 gm wolfe paints marketed as "wolf novelties" I ended up with a bunch after halloween one year and was so pleasantly surprised at how well they worked for starblends.

[@rachaeltang9247]

Fairy Fox Design do you like them better than the disposable smoothie blenders? It looks like it comes off so much more pigmented with these or else I'm doing something wrong with my disposable ones.

[@aprildamski7372]

What size brushes did you use for line work?

[@fairyfox]

3-5, but any are great- just get to know each size strength, having a variety is awesome.

[@aprildamski7372]

@@fairyfox Thank you!

[@belenfatimagarcia806]

Thank you so much for this class!👍😘 would you please teach us how make more cheek art, like a kitty cat? Pleased

[@lynettecubic4520]

that really helps xox

[@s.b.8258]

I have a very hard time with black outlines either too thin or too thick 🤷🏻‍♀️😳😭

[@fairyfox]

don't we all! It is a tough one, try playing with different brushes and the angle of your bristles. Getting to 90 degrees can sometimes help.

[@sonjawies614]

[@isabelclaudia45]

Hermoso ❤

[@E-lightreader]

You get so much paint on the brush without dipping it back in the paint. How? 😂
