Abstract
A template and method of marking a person's face. A formable sheet of plastic is placed onto a person's face in a heated condition and forced against the face to assume the face shape. A plurality of small circles are marked onto the formed sheet to define the various facial contour features. The sheet is then removed from the face and openings are created in the sheet along the contour lines. The sheet has an elastic band mounted thereon for subsequent remounting to the person's face. A marker is extended through the various openings against the face marking the contour lines created in the template onto the face.
