Step 1
Load a high density sponge with Snazaroo Sparkle White and apply to create a white mask as shown.

Step 2
Do the outline of the Dalmatian face and create the ears using a fine round brush loaded with Black Snazaroo paint.

Step 3

Draw the nose in with a medium multi-purpose brush loaded with Snazaroo Black paint. Take the line above the ball of the nose.

Paint a straight line down to the lips and then follow the line of the lips joining up with the outline down the side of the face.

Paint two groups of 4 dots as shown and then add whiskers.

Fill in the folded section of the ear with Snazaroo Pale Pink using a multi purpose brush.

Step 4

Cut a sponge into quarters. Take one quarter then lightly dampen. Screw it up and dab into Black Snazaroo face paint.

Using a swirling effect, create Dalmatian spots of varying sizes as shown.

Fill in the top lip with Snazaroo Black paint plus half of the bottom lip as shown using a medium multi purpose brush.

Step 5

Load a medium multi-purpose brush with Snazaroo Bright Red face paint to create the tongue and outline with Black.

Optional: Use Snazaroo Silver Glitter dust to add a sparkle to the finished design (not shown here).

Painting Tips

Before loading your Face Painting sponge with Snazaroo paint, ensure that the sponge is damp but not wet. Build the Snazaroo colour into the sponge to create a rich creamy texture. Never over wet the sponge or you will find you get a streaky uneven finish.

When using a thin fine line brush for detail, always build the colour into the brush and upto the tip. This is especially true when applying Black lines and detail to your design.

Cut a round face sponge into quarters to create smaller patterns such as spots and triangles.

If you are going to try and replicate this design for a number of children and want them all to be as similar as possible, enlist some help and asign each volunteer one face painting stage. Have the children move down the "production line" in turn and voila! - cloned faces for your party or production. This is a great idea for school events, carnivals and large parties.
