Snazaroo: How to Paint a Diamond with Face Paints | Platinum Jubilee

What you’ll need:

18ml paints pots of:

Along with:

Step One:

Taking Royal blue and turquoise, create a dramatic winged cat eyeliner. Starting in the inner corner of your eye use a lighter shade and then gradient out to a darker colour on the outer edge of your lid – extend out to the edge of your brow. You can use a damp brush to blend the paints together so you have a smooth gradient finish.

Then, taking Snazaroo white paint and a brush add some graphic lines to the bottom lid.

(OPTIONAL: Taking Snazaroo multicolor glitter and some lash glue pat lightly across the middle of the eye for a glittery effect.)

Step Two:

Taking a white brush pen, outline the shape of a diamond on both cheeks.

You will then be using 3 colours to achieve the diamond sparkle shown:

Step Three:

Mix together:

• White and Turqoise (WT)
• Turquoise and Royal Blue (TR)

And now you can start to fill in the diamonds with the colours to create a 3D diamond effect. Add the colours in this order:

Turquoise, Royal blue, TR, WT, white and Royal blue.

Step Four:

Once the diamond is completely filled in you can go back in and add a little white shading to the edges to give the diamond dimension.

To finish, using white and a brush add the sparkly final touches of drawing a small star on the edges of the diamonds to give a beautiful sparkle effect.

And there you have it – a beautiful diamond design that you can achieve in less than half an hour!
