The celebrations throughout the year are the perfect excuse to paint faces with creativity and color. Halloween, Christmas and Mexico's national holidays (Fiestas Patrias) are ideal moments for themed designs that kids love.
Halloween: skulls, monsters and more
At Halloween, kids usually ask for something spooky: skulls, vampires, spiders and zombies are the most popular. Dark designs with neon or glittery details really stand out.
Christmas: holiday spirit on your face
In December, Christmas motifs take over: reindeer, Christmas trees, snowflakes, Santa Claus and elves. Red, white, green and gold are the go-to colors, along with glitter that captures the magic of the season.
Mexican Independence Day: pride in green, white and red
In September, patriotic designs take center stage. Flags, the eagle, fireworks or simply the national colors in creative patterns are popular with kids and adults alike.
Tips for every season
- Adapt colors and symbols to each holiday.
- Use hypoallergenic paints that are safe for children's skin.
- Offer quick designs or stencils to keep lines moving at large events.
