Thurrock Business Awards
Friday night see the return of the Thurrock Business Awards, the awards were organised by the Gazette’s parent company, Newsquest, and sponsored by the Thurrock Gazette and DP World. The entertainment for the evening was provided by the magician Michael Fitch – who was extremely funny and amazing to watch.
We were treated to a beautiful three course meal, but our table had a hard time trying to eat due to our nerves, the dinner ran over so our nerves were even worse by the time the awards got started, and on top of all that we streamed live via our Periscope too (just to make it easy on ourselves)
The business awards recognise the very best businesses in Thurrock
The first award we were up for was Best use of Social Media, both Dupe Magazine and The Face Painting Shop was finalists in this category and we are delighted that Dupe Magazine won! The magazine has been going for just over a year now and going from strength to strength, we have amazing support on Dupe's social media from artists all over the world, so this was the icing on the cake for us to win the award, both Anna and I are extremely proud, thank you to the sponsor of the award Danielle Evert from Final Checks for sponsoring the award
You can see the video of Anna and I (beware of the screaming) below
The next award we were waiting for was the prestigious Business Woman of the year award, I could feel myself feeling physically sick when Andrea Ince, who was the judge took to the stage to announce the finalists. Andrea come to visit me at the shop and interview me a few weeks back for the award, Andrea is the Managing Director Of Orsett Hall and also Ince PR, she also won the award in 2014 so she knows just what it takes and knows just how prestigious the award is.
The other finalists had amazing business, but I am please to say I won, I am extremely proud of this award and am also proud that someone from outside of our industry recognised how successful The Face Painting Shop is not only in the UK, but around the world.

Face Painting Training Corses
As you may have seen from our social media channels we have under gone a
huge refurbishment at the shop over the past 5 weeks, we would like to
show you our new one of a kind custom built training station.
We felt that face painting training is a huge commitment for any face painter and felt that we need to upgrade from the regular tables and chairs. We couldn’t find anything on the market that we felt was good enough for our training courses, so put our builders to work and commissioned them to make our very own stylish and practical training station.
It features 10 work stations, each with its own makeup mirror and high directors makeup chairs, every station has draws packed full of products ready to be used and learned with.
It’s also the perfect place to sit and try and test products when you come to the shop, we all love to try different colours before we buy them and now we have the perfect place for you to sit and do exactly this.
We are extremely pleased with the new training station and look forward to welcoming everyone on our amazing workshops this year.
We have to say a huge thank you to Baseline Building for creating such a perfect addition to our shop.
