How to Fix the Clown Face Paint Bug in Baldur’s Gate 3

To remove the clown makeup, you’ll need to give your party a long rest at camp and reset the day. Simply taking a short rest won’t do the trick; you need a good night’s sleep. Until you return to camp and rest, the face paint will persist, even if the character wearing it isn’t your own.

If you’re facing the face paint bug, there’s a workaround to remove the clown makeup. Apply another Face-Painting Kit to the same character who has the face paint bug. Once you’ve applied the new face, bring your party back to camp and initiate a long rest. When your character wakes up, the bug should be resolved, and they will have a fresh face without the clown makeup.

To acquire a Face-Painting Kit in BG3, you’ll need to visit Zara the Mummy at the Circus of the Last Days in Rivington. As you enter through the main gate, you’ll find Zara the Mummy on the left side of the path, serving as a vendor. While Zara may not be the talkative type, she has a variety of items available for purchase.

Zara offers armor dye, disguise kits, and several Face-Painting Kits. Whether you’re looking to reverse the bug or simply want to have some options for face paint, it’s recommended to buy at least two kits, even though they might be a bit pricey.

Don’t let the clown face paint bug spoil your adventures in Baldur’s Gate 3. By following the steps outlined in this guide, you can easily remove the clown makeup and enjoy a fresh-faced character. Remember to give your party a long rest at camp and apply another Face-Painting Kit to the affected character.
