Wow, what a great experience. We were stressing to find a balloon artist and face painting company for our son's first birthday (dohl) that had general liability insurance; which our venue required. Brenda (Owner) was super responsive to my inquiries and even changed her schedule around to make sure she could be the one servicing our party. Sure enough, she showed up early and worked her magic with all of the kids. We receive many compliments from parents about how talented and friendly Brenda was with everyone -- we agreed. Judging by the huge smiles on the kids faces, I knew they were thrilled too. We had FaceFormers do 2 hours total, 1 hour of face painting and 1 hour of balloon twisting and that worked out perfectly. They made sure every kid had a good time which we really appreciated. Thank you so much Brenda and crew for making our kids first party the best one any of our friends and relatives have ever gone to. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED A++++ read more

Brenda was the absolute best!! We received multiple compliments from our guests. She was very talented, creative, prompt, meticulous, patient, efficient, and very accommodating. The ease of getting a hold of her through text was extremely convenient! I was able to book her Friday night for my party on Sunday. Her prices are fair and well worth it! She made my son's 1st birthday memorable and we will definitely be having her again at our next party. read more

Whether it's five diamonds or stars, you must have Face Formers at your next party! I know it sounds cliché, but words simply cannot convey how deeply happy we are to have had Brenda of Face Formers at our little girl's first birthday party. All the kids enjoyed the face painting and balloons, waiting ever so patiently in line, not wanting to eat or run around outside. Even the older ones who thought they were too cool ended up with a nice print to show mom and dad. Brenda was so patient amidst the chaos of kids pushing in line, screaming, crying, you name it. She had a nice album displayed for the kids to carefully pick and choose their favorite design and characters. In the end, there were many happy children as Brenda made sure everyone was tended to and taken care of. For many parents, they waited happily at closing so that their kids could take home a wonderful surprise balloon. I can't even count the number of parents who came up to me the day after at church to exclaim how wonderful Brenda was, courteous, professional, and dedicated to her craft. If you're looking to entertain and brighten your child's party or any event for that matter, you won't be disappointed choosing Face Formers. The price is a bargain and the memories will be truly priceless for all those involved. read more

The BEST face painting artists without a doubt. Such a wonderful addition to any party for both kids and adults. I've worked with both Brenda and Esther and they are both incredibly nice, super creative, accommodating and fun. They are so FAST which means no never ending line of kids struggling to be patient. I would highly recommend and will most definitely hire again. Also very reasonable in cost. Thanks Face Formers! read more

AMAZING!!! We hired FaceFormers for our son's 1st birthday party and we absolutely love them! Angie (face painter/artist) and Gabe (balloon twister/artist) were soooo great! I keep getting compliments from the guests on how amazing they are! Definitely having them at our next party! read more

Brenda ROCKS! So friendly and helpful. They are great with the kids and really are very talented artists. FaceFormers is the best! Thank you. read more

Just hired FaceFormers for my granddaughter's 5th birthday and I'm happy to say I made the right choice. Brenda is an extremely talented artist and free hand draws her designs, they were exquisite. She has a sweet gently way with children too. She also did baloon art and that was a HUGE success with all the kids. She was on time, stayed a few minutes longer than her paid session to make sure all the children were taken care of. I have not been this happy with a vendor in a long time. All the parents were raving about her work too. Don't look any further, hire FaceFormers! read more

We used Faceformers for a party yesterday and they were nothing short of fantastic. Angie was a huge hit. All the kids were lining up to get their faces painted, and even some adults too! Her paintings were elaborate and colorful. When she didn't know how to paint something, she just looked at a picture and quickly recreated it on the spot. She was also very polite with a calm demeanor, even among 30 kids. We will definitely use them again! read more

Everyone at my daughter's birthday party LOVED having faceformers do the paint and balloons. Brenda was so flexible and easy to work with even through my multiple time changes! Would highly recommend! read more

We had an amazing birthday party that was complete with face painting by Face Formers! We loved Angie and she was so patient with everyone. All our guests, even adults, enjoyed being kids again with colorful designs. She even brought shiny 3D stickers and glitter! We were amazed at all the variations of designs she could handle. I am so happy we made the decision to use this company for our party needs. read more

Brenda did an awesome job at my daughters 1st birthday party this past weekend! She has a great personality and is very sweet! She is amazing at what she does! And was great with the kids! Thanks again, I am definitely keeping you in mind for future parties! read more

WOW! We have hired FaceFormers for 2 of our daughters birthday parties. Julie is amazing! We are still receiving many compliments on how great the face painting was. They are extremely professional. There were 22 children and she made all of them extremely happy. She was fun & patient. We can't wait to use them again. read more

Brenda was amazing- fantastic painting- great balloons- and Brenda was calm and kind. Our sons 1st birthday party was a hit! Thanks Brenda - we will see you again and we gave your number to our friends. read more

If there was a zero I would give her no stars. I was trying to book her for my daughters first birthday 2 months in advance, she never answered her phone, she texted back once, she never emailed me any information, and when I told her I booked with someone else, she was rude and sarcastic and said have a great time. So unprofessional. I wouldn't trust her with anything. Apparently she doesn't need any business. So if I were you, look elsewhere. read more

Brenda was amazing and captivated the attention of all the kids at our party in various age ranges. My two year old birthday boy was so happy to get painted and have balloon figures. Such an enjoyable memory for everyone. Thanks Brenda!! read more

Wow, Brenda came and did the most amazing facepainting. She was ontime, she is cute and so great with the guests. She comes completely prepared with everything including a little umbrella stand and seat for the paintee. The designs were original, detailed and gorgeous. Girls, boys and adults all wanted designs done. She used professional makeup and glitter, it outlasted the waterballoon and water contests, yet washed off easily in the bath at the end of the day. The pictures don't even do justice to how beautiful her artistry is. I would definitely hire her again and so would any of my guests. read more

We hired Brenda for our daughters 1st birthday on March 1st in Fullerton. Brenda did the face painting and her son did our balloon twisting. They were AMAZING!! All of our guests loved them! I had guests at my party say that face formers quality was up to par. The were able to draw and twist whatever the kids and adults wanted. They showed up on time, were professional and friendly. I know many of my guests have inquired booking them for their kids birthdays. I highly recommend face formers for entertainment at your next party. read more

A-MAZING!!! FaceFormers did my son's birthday party this past weekend and they were nothing short of fabulous!!! Angie is an incredible artist and my guests were so impressed that they were able to show her pictures from their phones and she was able to duplicate them to a T. I can't recall the first name of the balloon twister (last name was Mendoza) but she was soooo fantastic too. Really, I can't say enough about the two of them. All of my guests are veterans of the kids birthday party circuit and they all said that these two were the best they have ever seen. Fantastic!!! Thanks so much! read more

Nice face painting at a good price. The Faceformers painted at our preschool and the parents really liked the job they dd. Thanks Faceformers. read more

I contacted them a few months ago to inquire about a face painter & balloon twister for my son's 1st birthday. It took a few days for them to get back to me, but eventually they did and I've been working with Jennifer. I was about to book and pay my deposit but had a quick question about the time. I emailed Jennifer on 11/29 & 12/5. When I did not hear back, I decided to follow up via text message today (12/9). That attempt too was futile. I'm a bit disappointed by the lack of communication on their end. I reached out to them due to the wonderful reviews here on Yelp and was immensely interested in their service. However, if their lack of response is a prelude to how they typically conduct their business, I'm a little reluctant now to hire them for my son's event. read more

Unfortunately I can't write my review based on the serve as the artist never made it to my daughters birthday this past weekend. As a hostess I was very busy attending guest but it was brought to my attention that it was 310pm still no artist or call stating they couldn't find the house or were running late. I decided to check where the artist was after figuring out she was given the wrong clients information and trying to get her to our house we were told she wouldn't be able to come to our daughters party anymore as she had made other plans. To say the least I was very upset as it had only been 10-15min after the time she was supposed to be at our house yet she wouldn't be making it plus I had confirmed my appointment during the week. My 4 year old and her friends were very disappointed that the face painter would not be coming any more. This is stress no parent should go through during their event. read more

Faceformers were recommended to us by our party planner and it was a great choice. Julie was very good with the children and her artwork was excellent. She did face painting and balloon making. She was very patient with the kids and courteous to all the guests. There was a long line next to her all the time yet she managed to get through everyone with speed. She was on time and quick to set up. I highly recommend their service, they are also very reasonably priced. read more

I have to say Brenda was the absolute best! She was actually the bell of the ball, and did such an awesome job with face painting and balloons at my son's first birthday party last weekend. We received multiple compliments about how good a job she did, the kids and adults just loved her. My entire family was thrilled with her and we're still talking about what a great job she did. She is very creative and professional, and I would definitely hire her again in a heart beat. The best face painter/balloon twister I have seen thus far. Thank you Brenda! Also, I want to mention that she is very easy to reach by phone/texting, which I appreciate. read more

They are the best! We hired Brenda very last minute after a weather-related postponement of my daughter's birthday. So creative, professional, kind ... we will definitely use FaceFormers again (along with a lot of parents who were there and incredibly impressed as well) ... read more

I saw Brenda at a friends party and her work was amazing. I hired her for my daughter, Ryley's party yesterday at we play loud. Her face painting was the hit of the party. So many people came up to me to comment on how great her work was. In fact, I saw one of the little boys this morning and he refused to wash his arm he loved his so much. Brenda is extremely personable with the kids and she moves them through the line quickly. I highly recommend this company. read more

Amazing! What a great choice to hire FaceFormers for face painting and balloons to celebrate my little boy's 1st birthday. She found her way into the back yard on her own to set up and started working right away. Her face painting was so good people thought she was using a stencil. She was quick, fun, efficient and courteous! Her balloons were just as creative as the face painting. Gave us a really great rate for both the painting and balloons. I will definitely use her again! read more

In June 2014 my family and I attended a bday party where a Face Former artist was performing both face painting and balloon twisting. The kids were all amazed with everything that she was presenting, and so did the parents. I decided to hire their services for my kiddos' party as well and again they delivered an awesome job. Gabriel and Susie were right on time, very patient and friendly. read more

We hired faceformers for my son's first birthday party. We had a wide range of kids (infant to 16 years old). Brenda arrived early, was professional, friendly and an excellent artist. I, as well as everyone else at the party, was extremely impressed. I will definitely hire faceformers again. It was a huge hit at the party. read more

I booked FaceFormers for my daughter's 1st Birthday Party and the quality of service was excellent! We had both face painting & balloon twisting, but the face painting was a bigger hit. Every design was fantastic and both the kids and adults LOVED it! The highlight for me was when the artist created a full face off a picture from a cell phone. There is not one bad thing I can say and I will definitely book again! read more
