Hi, I'm Samantha 👋

Auckland mum, face painting obsessive, and the person behind the smiles at hundreds of parties and events across the city. I turned a passion for safe, creative face art into a thriving entertainment business — and I genuinely love every single minute of it.

How it all started...

It all started with my little boy — who has severe eczema and absolutely loved face painting. I wanted him to be able to enjoy it safely, so I started learning how to create beautiful designs using only skin-safe products that wouldn't irritate his sensitive skin. What began as a mission for my son quickly became my passion. ❤️​

​My craft really took off when I trained at Yo! Face Painting Studio in Hong Kong, then completed the International Face Painting School professional course. Both programmes gave me advanced techniques, rigorous hygiene practices (I sanitise between every single face), and the confidence to create designs that are safe, stunning, and smudge-proof every time.

Now I also have a special love for glitter tattoos, airbrush tattoos, and balloon twisting—perfect for adding that extra sparkle to any event!

From my first shaky butterfly on a giggling child's cheek, I dove headfirst into perfecting my craft. Now I run a thriving entertainment business with a talented team of artists covering Auckland—from cozy backyard birthdays to massive festivals. We've painted thousands of smiles across the city, always prioritizing hygiene and quality artistry.

 

Whether it's your child's 5th birthday party or a 500-person corporate event — I show up, set up, and make it magical. Professional skills, a big heart, and a genuine love for watching kids' faces light up when they see what we've created. 🎨

Let's make something unforgettable together.
