How Do You Make Glow-In-The-Dark Face Paint?
While premixed glow-in-the-dark face paint is purchasable at many hobby, craft and party supply stores, making your own glow-in-the-dark face paint allows you to get just the right color and luminosity for any costume or related project. Premixed face paints are hard to brighten or dampen without purchasing additional products, so making your own face paint mixture offers a greater level of customization ability. With just a few simple ingredients, you can quickly make a batch of colorful and luminous glow-in-the-dark face paint. Paint the subject’s face white for easier application of colors and glow-in-the-dark solution. Use a fine-bristled artist paintbrush. Don’t use a standard hardware-store paintbrush, as these have coarse bristles that can irritate the skin. Think of the white paint as a primer. Let the white paint dry before applying other paints. Drying times vary, but are usually less than 15 minutes. Pour clear paint into a small bowl for mixing. Add glow-in-the-dark powder.
