Face Painting

I made some face paint for the kids today. The recipe I used is:

1 part shortening

2 parts cornstarch

a few drops of food coloring

I put a multi-colored heart on Jaden's face to match the hearts that she had on her outfit. Camille got a flower, and she wanted me to make it brown... So, it is kind of hard to see, but that is probably a good thing because I am NOT an artist. The other 2 girls wanted hearts like Jaden's. The face paint recipe with cold cream is probably better, but I used what I had on hand. They had fund looking in the mirror and showing off the designs for about 30 minutes... And then, most of them were all rubbed off. Oh well...
