    BLOSSOM SEASON // LONDON SUMMER EVENTS SHOW

    VARIETY IS THE SPICE OF LIFE.

    As face and body painters we are constantly working in different locations and environments, rising to all sorts of challenges. No two jobs are the same, and whilst this wouldn't be everyone's cup of tea, the diversity is what we thrive on. We meet so many people from all different walks of life and have a little slice of time with them. We are generally in places where people are having fun and enjoying themselves which is an added bonus! Our working environment could be a f

    GHOSTS AND GHOULS (OH, AND KERRY KATONA).

    Halloween has become the craziest and busiest time for face painters and for us it was no exception! We worked for 10 days at Tulleys Farm Halloween Theme Park -"Shocktoberfest" in West Sussex, painting children during the day and adults at night. It was like a face painting marathon with very few breaks and constant queues of people waiting to be painted at vampires, pumpkins, witches, zombies and the like. Painting for so many days in a row and being out in the cold was a c

    POPPIES & SUNSHINE // HACKNEY WICK.

    Fresh from the festival circuit, our feet have just touched the ground and we're busy catching up with admin and such. Back in June we were busy preparing for the fast approaching festival season. Here's a peek at our last studio session... To accompany our newly launched company, we redesiged our festival stall, beginning with the mass production of fabric poppies! As well as ordering new signage and decor, we wanted to create a signature body paint shot, to adorn the back o

    INDIA - THE JOURNEY BEGINS.

    Although the seed for our new venture was sown back in October, sheltered in an English country pub aside a roaring fire, we consider the true birth place of Poppy and Perle to be in the somewhat warmer Goa, India, two months later. Specifically, the beautiful Cozy Nook restaurant on Palolem beach was where everything came together in December last year. It was during our "business meeting" there that our ideas really started to flow and the name came to us both individually

    Hello! Welcome to our shiny, new website and the exciting beginning of our joint venture, Poppy & Perle.
