I have a bunch of recipes in Making Make-Believe, but I think the easiest is
actual cosmetics like rouge, eyebrow pencils, lipstick and so on, first
coating the face with lotion. But kids shouldn't share these tools unless
you can clean them between uses.

Washable markers can be used directly on the skin too.

Biocolor paint comes in many colors and is non-toxic and works really well
for face paint.

Here's a recipe for "grease Paint" like clowns wear: 4 T. shortening, 10 T.
cornstarch, 2 T. flour, 1/4 t. glycerin, and food coloring.
