My name is Nora Machado, I own and operate Chico Face Painting. I am professionally trained and have face painted for 7 years. Over that time I have developed a style that is broad and flexible. 
​
I enjoy working with specific themes.  I can also provide popular designs  in lists or picture books depending on the event.  Learn more about me in the 'about' section of the menu.

Chico Face Painting specializes in providing a fun, colorful, and welcoming atmosphere for children and adults.

Chico Face Painting uses only face and body paints that are professional grade, that wash off with a lather of soap and a wet wash cloth.

Glitter tattoo's can be removed with rubbing alcohol or baby oil.

​Testimonials

Nora did my daughter's Frozen party and she is amazing! All of the kids were in love with their face paint and glitter tattoos. My daughter loved her Frozen design so much that she slept with it on last night...and it still looked great in the morning! We will definitely use Nora again!

You always do awesome work! Your kindness at our school carnival was very much appreciated!!! Thank you!
--Stefanie Connie Huber, Chico Ca

We saw her work at Chico Con and we're excited that she was able to come to our son's 3rd birthday. She does great work in a timely manner which is great when you have a lot of little ones waiting their turn. When we had a larger turnout than expected, she was able to stay a little later (compensated) to make sure every kid was painted. Thank you so much.
