Secondly, they've been a big hit at both of the parties we've hosted. Both the kids AND adults took part in receiving a face painting and twisted balloon.

I joked around about something with my daughter and the artist just played along. I love people that just go with the flow of my awkwardness!

I hired Kelani for my daughter 5th day party & it was such a hit. All the kids loved their face…read morepaint art. I wish we hired her for MORE then 2 hours. All the kids got there face painted and even adult was asking if they could get theirs too but we ran out of our booked time and she had another party to go to right after. She charges about $350 for 2 hours which may seem kinda pricey but it is full face detailed & beautiful work so thats probably why. she gets booked up so plan accordingly if you wanted more then 2 hours. We had maybe about 15-18 kids Face painted in 2 hours. I would highly recommend and would book her again. If you have a big party more then 20 faces to paint I suggest you hire a couple face paint artist or hire for more then 2 hours. Make sure there is adequate shade for the artist. I had a 20x30 tent with alot of room and thought that be good enough but the sun was moving in on her work area towards end time. Provide vegan snacks/food/dessert if possible as Kelani is vegan and we love to support healthy life styles. Overall a great party activity.

Liz has such a talent making cute and beautiful art. I love her designs and how she works with the…read morechildren - and adults as well! Liz and Doug arrived early and setup their station quickly. From their setup, you can see that they really put thought into the materials they use, that they're not only of high quality, but also very hygienic. They have a great variety or vibrant colors of paint & glitter. They were such a huge hit at my son's 1st birthday party that they had a non-stop line! Thank you for working so hard! If you're looking for a fun way to add some fun and sparkle to your party or event, I highly recommend Twinkle Face Painting. You will not be disappointed!

It is very rare to come across such a talented and professional artist that has not yet been…read morediscovered. After seeing a lot of different face painting work I realized how much more beautiful and unique Liz's work was. She does not go for your plain and typical designs like the DIY amazon kits. Her equipment is also professional grade, FDA compliant cosmetic grade paints and she properly sterilizes everything! She does not even reuse the tattoo stencils for the glitter tattoos, they dispose after each use. BTW, you're welcome fellow germaphobes. :D I decided to hire Twinkle Face Painting for my son's 2nd birthday after seeing her rave reviews and compliments from word of mouth. My son's birthday party was super hero themed. The boys all wanted to be iron man! It was so much fun to see their faces light up with joy! I wish I had hired her sooner for other birthdays. Liz is very professional. She does have a schedule to keep like the rest of us so I booked a month and a half in advance and she checked up with me several times to get the location, details and make sure everything was going to be a success! Alas the party date arrived and the work that was done was nothing short of magic!!! They arrived early and set up with their own table and chairs at our party. Liz is so friendly and works fast and very well with children and adults alike. I found this business to be exceptional in every way! Everybody loved Twinkle Face Painting! They were the highlight of my child's birthday party, but the adults loved the glitter tattoos and face painting as well! I recommend Twinkle Face Painting for anybody wanting to make any event a success! Even adult themed parties, cosplay, heroes, you name it and I know Liz is most capable. Now I want to hire them for my own (adult) birthday party too! :D

NEW STENCIL EVERY TIME!…read more Kids love tattoos. Kids love tattoos that stay on for days. KIDS LOVE TATTOOS THAT STAY ON FOR DAYS AND HAVE BLING! These tattoo artists have bling-BLING! No airbrushing involved! Each tattoo starts with a new stencil which sticks to the skin with adhesive. Glue is then applied and the glitter is painted on. After the stencil is peeled off (and discarded), the rhinestones are applied and set. We went to a party with Aloha Glitter Tattoos and the kids absolutely loved their tattoos! Some of them got one on each arm AND each leg!! The boys got dragons and UH warriors tattoos and the girls got all kinds of cute flowers and cupcakes with rhinestones! The tattoos are supposed to last 7 days but I'm sure my daughter will try to make it last 2 weeks. She loves tattoos. She loves glitter tattoos. I might have to book them for her next party. 2 body artists, 2 hours, $200.

The highlight of this company is that the owner who booked the event and the staff who came to the…read moreparty were nice and professional. Besides that, note that the company's website states that they "charge a travel fee of $25 for venues OUTSIDE of metro Honolulu." My event was in Downtown Honolulu and the owner said that I still needed to pay the $25 travel fee (just checked and the website hasn't changed). The owner also said a few days before the event to expect 3 staff; however, only 2 staff came to the party. I paid $393 for 2 hours of glitter tattoos and balloon art. The pictures on Yelp and their company website look great. However, the skill and experience of the 2 staff who came to my event were trainee/beginner level. A guest commented that the glitter tattoos took a while to apply, which may be harder for younger kids to sit through. The website photos also show several colors on many glitter tattoos, but the glitter tattoos made at my party were only one and sometimes two colors. The balloon art honestly looked like they were made by someone who just began doing it a few months ago. I think a more experienced staff person (the 3rd staff that was promised) should have came to event to give them tips and to provide more variety for party guests. Of course, guests didn't make any comments during the party, but when I asked a few closer friends after the party if they'd use this company at future events, they said no. They were actually surprised that I paid that much for what I got. If you don't mind paying around $400 for 2 hours of very simple temporary glitter tattoos and balloons, for an age 5 and under crowd (older kids wouldn't be impressed), then this company might be for you. I've included a few photos for you to decide.

Attending a party that offered services for both face painting and balloon twisting. My view is…read moresolely for the balloon twisting. Terrible service from the balloon lady. Not sure what's her name, but she was an older Caucasian lady. They were there for about 3 hours or so and never once did I see a line to get a balloon. Probably because 1 of many reasons.... 1. I witnessed one of my nephews trying to get a balloon and he had to explain to the lady why he was getting another one. **he should not have to explain to the lady why he needs another balloon. The balloons are unlimited for 3 hours! There wasn't a line. The lady was just sitting there. 2. My friend told me that she had to help my other 5 year old nephew get a balloon because the balloon twister refused to help him since she was unable to make the balloon he wanted. She just so happened to be next to the vendor and heard her tell him to "go get your mommy". Instead of showing him the balloon folder of what she could make, she just refused to make him a balloon. My friend went over to help him pick one from the folder of pictures . **I don't understand why she couldn't just show him the balloon folder to begin with... maybe she just didn't want to deal with him. AGAIN, there was no line. ** 3. My daughter has a whole lot to say about the balloon lady. She kept saying how rude she was... In all honesty, I wasn't going to write a review about the rude balloon twister, but my daughter randomly brought it up again after 1 month. She said "remember that balloon twister lady... she said multiple times that she needs to save her balloons because she has other parties to go to"... **again, THERE WAS NEVER A LINE. She probably saved lots of balloons thanks to the fact that the host had so many vendors!!!! Save your money and go with another balloon twister! Face painter was good!

These guys were probably the best part of my kid's 7th birthday party. I contacted them with…read moreprobably under 2 weeks to go til party and they were super friendly and easy to book with. At the time they had a deal for $365 for any 2 of their services for 2 hours each and I went with the face paint and balloon twisting. I was a little nervous that the quality of service wouldn't be up to par seeing as they were almost half the price of the competition but I wasn't let down. They arrived early to set up and immediately went to work and were cranking out balloons and face paints non stop for 2 hours and the kids kept getting back in line giving them no time to rest. They handled it like champs and I would recommend them to anyone.

I was worried they wouldn't have availability since it was so last minute, but we were able to book with him! His replies were always very fast (within 20 minutes) and he made the booking process so quick and easy. Their prices are very reasonable as well! On the day of the party, they arrived early to set up. We booked them for balloon twisting and airbrush tattoos and all our guests, both children and adults, loved them! Their work was very beautiful and all the kids kept lining back up for more. It was adorable seeing all the tattoos and balloons everywhere! They were so great with the kids and all our guests had so much fun. Dave made my son a Winnie the Pooh balloon and he absolutely loved it. The sweet woman working with Dave (unfortunately I forget her name, my brain was all over the place at the time) made my son a little turtle balloon bracelet and he was obsessed with it! She also asked for my favorite color, and then made me a rose balloon in that color! She actually walked all the way across the room to hand them to us both times. They were both very sweet people! All in all, I'm so happy with this whole experience from beginning to end! Thank you Party Time Hawaii, I highly recommend!

The balloon creations were far beyond your standard dogs and swords--the 'wow factor' was definitely the F1 Oracle car they made to match our theme!

Listen, we're grown adults celebrating our friend's daughter and if your friend tells you to get balloon hats, you get balloon hats. If the daughter tells aunty to get their face painted, we get our face painted. We wanted her to get her monies worth! Also, we sat right next to the table so it wasn't hard to make a request when there was no line. I don't even have kids but we had a fun time with them. I don't know the next time I'll ever need to book them but I do know they will be so worth it.

We were in corespondence with Kelly who was helpful in getting us the package we needed. We also got a 10 percent discount from Yelp! Kelly was our point person and helped coordinate our timeline. She also was the laision with the band. Before the party, I sent her the script and timeline. On the day of the party, the band showed up to set up at 10a for our 11a party. They said they thought they started at 1030a. I said they started at 11:30 a.m. Kelly (Balloon artist) and face painter came onsite at just about 11a. One major disappointment I had was that the MC refused to facilitate our script. We thought it was farily light and simple, including directions to the bathroom, where the rubbish is, then calling up various people to help facilitate the program and games. Luckily, my sister in law stepped in and did the MCing. The quality of the balloons was excellent, as well as the face painting. The live band was REALLY good, loud, and brought excellent energy to the party. Everyone complimented us on the entertainment. Eddie, the band leader, brought us a screen and projector for our slideshow. It went off without a hitch. The band continued to play until after most of our guests left. Unfortunately when they took their break, most of our guests started leaving. In hindsight, I would have everyone sang happy birthday a little later so people stuck around to hear their second set. Also, I asked the face painter if we could make announcement that they would be closing in 15 minutes and she said no because people will line up for their face painting/balloon. I thought that was the point. But, oh well. Maybe people luckily got their face painted and balloon early. Overall, it was a little disorganized, but it came together and was a nice party.
