Gathering all the necessary tools in one place always helps to save time. These come in different shapes, quality and sizes. Each one is used at a different stage of the job to do a specified task. Colors used to paint skin should be approved for such use by the relevant regulatory body.

Different colors can be used to come up with a better looking picture. The alternative to purchasing all the necessary colors is to buy the basic ones and mix them to obtain new ones as desired. This however needs someone with experience. Beginners may end up wasting a lot of time and paint while doing this on a client.

Some of the other important things to have are comfortable furniture, hair bands to tie hair during painting, a sink and soap to wash hands in between clients. Having a fan is also helpful.

The next thing is to ensure that the client does not react to any of the ingredients in the materials to be used. If the face to be painted has makeup, it should be cleaned first. This helps to prevent low quality work at the end. The hair should be held at the back of the head. Any ornaments that could interfere with work can be removed.

The painter begins by applying the lighter colors first. It is easier to bring out the dark colors on top of lighter ones. The base of the picture is done followed by finer details. Bases can be applied with the use of sponges. Small brushes are good for fine details. Special effects can also be achieved such as bumps on the face.
