Face Paint
You will need:

2 teaspoons shortening
2 1/2 teaspoons cornstarch
1 teaspoon white flour
3 or 4 drops glycerin(available at pharmacies)
food coloring
cold cream
cotton swabs

1.Thoroughly mix the shortening,cornstarch and flour until it forms a paste.

2.Add the glycerin and stir again until the mixture becomes smooth and spreadable.

3.Add food coloring a drop at a time until you get the color you like.

4.For easy paint removal later, smooth a dab of cold cream on the child's face before painting. Use cotton swabs to create simple designs such as a sun, heart, football, daisy or others. Home-made face paint washes off with soap and water.
