About me
My name is Hester. I am a year 10 student at Aotea College. Since a young age I've been very outgoing, have a great repore with kids and I love to make them smile. I recently started my own face painting business, which is the perfect opportunity for me to have a great creative outlet while having tons of fun!
More than just face paint, I create smiles!
I take pride in crafting unique and vibrant designs, from classic butterflies and fierce tigers to fantastical creatures dreamed up by the kids themselves. I have a knack for connecting with children, ensuring a fun and comfortable experience for everyone.
Safety is top priority.
I use only high-quality hypoallergenic paints that are gentle on sensitive skin. I also maintain a clean and hygienic workspace, ensuring a safe environment for all our little artists.
