WOW!! Lisa and her friend ccame to our 1 year old's birthday party this past Saturday and exceeded…read moreall expectations. I found Lisa On yelp and she got back to me very quickly and was easy to set everything up. The day of the party she arrived early and got right to work. The kids thought they were magical. She did outstanding designs on everyone there. Either doing arms oR faces depending on preference. I've never seen my 2.5 year old sit still for that long. Everyone raved about the designs. She was willing to do anything asked and they all turned Oort great. The balloons were just as big of a hit and the kids thought it was so neat to have balloon "swords" and animals. I would HIGHLY recommend Lisa for any party!!

She is by far the best face painter I have seen and believe me I have been to A LOT of children's birthday parties in the last few years. Lisa is hands down a perfectionist with free hand face painting, her attention to detail is impressive, and each outcome is on point. I highly recommend Lisa Face Painting and Balloons for your next event. You will not be disappointed.

ABSOLUTELY AMAZING. Natallia was early to set up and really took on a completely chaotic 6th…read morebirthday party. Haha. Her prices are fair and absolutely worth the cost. She brings her own set up, and is prepared and ready to go. She is sweet with the kiddos and can work well with time management. I just hired her for my daughter's 6th birthday party at the Westin in Itasca. She did unlimited face painting and was able to accommodate requests, or make recommendations if there was something she wasn't "great" at doing. We had kids washing off one painting after pictures and getting right back in line for something new. The kids even had their arms and hands done as well. She was definitely a HIT and would absolutely recommend her.

I swear this must have been fate or just pure luck, but she was absolutely amazing! Het artistic skills went way beyond my expectations. I have hired face painter/balloon twisters in the past, but none have come close to the work Beth did for my party. All of my guests were so pleased with the designs they chose, not only the kiddies, but even the adults wanted their faces painted! Some have also inquired about how/where I found Beth, so that they can book her for future events. My girls & I are 1000% satisfied, and would totally recommend Beth to anyone looking to hire an awesome talented face painter. Book her for your next event, you will not be disappointed

We hired Beth to do face painting at our twins birthday party yesterday. She was fabulous!…read moreIncredibly professional and poised, cool under pressure and every child was painted quickly and beautifully. The party was originally supposed to be outdoors but due to weather we moved it inside at the last minute. Picture 45 seven year olds running around, screaming and dancing for two hours, these were the conditions under which Beth had to work. She handled it perfectly, organized the kids so there was no line jumping or fighting and was totally under control under fairly wild circumstances. She had a variety of designs to chose from and every child was ecstatic with their face painting. I would highly recommend her for your next event!

We hired Mireille for our daughter's birthday party and we're beyond thrilled with her work. Her designs stand out from any face painting artist we've seen, her ability to work with children (we had as young as 2.5 at the party) and sweet nature were so perfect to coax even the shyest of children out of their shell to sit in her chair while she glammed them up all while chit chatting away with them with such kindness and patience. The body art was easy to remove, zero reactions even for my daughter who has quite sensitive skin and at the end of a party being able to effortlessly brush out the awesome glitter in her hair was a true blessing for a tired parent post party hosting. We truly cannot wait to work with she and her team again in the future and can see ourselves booking them throughout the years to come. Very well priced and worth every penny! Thanks again for helping sprinkle a little extra magic at our party.

I asked her if she can do Mickey/Minnie on my face & she said she has to see if she has a stencil & didn't. She shows me her tablet that had 15/20 pics & I told her to do flowers. As I was about to sit in her chair, she asked me how much I weighed!? I was dumbfounded & then she said- you can stand! I find that very rude & unprofessional. She also ignored another guest when that guest was trying to talk to her- She literally said excuse me 5 times! She was an ok painter to me & I felt she didn't interact with the kids when she did the face painting & making the balloons. I definitely told my daughter not to hire her again.

He is one less thing at your party you need to worry about because he is a sure thing! Truly, he is a whole family favorite!!

What a fun performer. I came across him at the Park Ridge Kiwanis annual pancake breakfast, where…read morehe was doing some entertaining mostly for the kids but definitely for the adults as well. It's through him that I heard of the Central Street Busker Festival that took place the next day and his line was loooong! Most recently, we went to his show last week that the Mt. Prospect Public Library held for spring break. That was very very well attended, with a long line of folks waiting to get in (and that's with all of us registered to attend!), but the show was a lot of fun. He did a little magic, a little comedy, and some fun balloon tricks. This guy has been doing this all his adult life--unless that's also a joke and part of his act--but regardless, he's great at his job. I'm looking forward to seeing him again and my little one having the chance to pick her balloon creation on her own.
