It is safe to assume that the Black Tie Edition is primarily geared for individuals who already have the confidence to create fantastic artworks even without the use of stencils.

Entertainment Value

The Black Tie Edition may be viewed as a more serious face-painting kit designed for those who have better control of their brushstrokes and who may already have a fair understanding of creative artwork.

However, it should be understood that the number of stencils in the Black Tie Edition has been reduced from 32 to 24 although the company made up for it by providing you with a complimentary e-book introducing you to 18 different artsy ideas to try on your kids.

Ease of Use

In order to begin painting, you must add a drop or two of water to the desired color. Make sure not to use too much water or the paint will run when applied to your child’s face. Washing the paint off is just as easy as applying it. Warm soapy water will remove the paint without leaving a leftover residue.
