The expenses involved in professional face painting might surprise you. The products, insurance, travel, training courses, practice costs and cleaning costs are substantial. For that reason, I am not able to paint for free at any event. However, I would be delighted to discuss how we can help raise money for your charity or fundraising events.

Face paints are completely safe for children, however, it is not recommended to paint children under 3 years old and due to insurance reasons, I adhere to a strict 'No under 3's policy'. 

Some young children can be nervous about having their faces touched (especially around the eye area), or sometimes can be too wriggly to sit through a painting. However, I can offer them an arm or hand painting. Many younger kids prefer this, as they can see their design afterwards. 

I recommend face paints be removed ideally in a bath or shower with a facecloth and soap or baby shampoo (no more tears). Using lotions or baby wipes may react with some ingredients in the paints and make them harder to remove or may cause discomfort. There is no set time limit for wearing face paint but I don’t recommend children wear any face paint to bed. It can get messy!

1. Start with warm water and a gentle soap. Baby wash/shampoo is ideal.
2. Wet a face cloth, add some gentle soap, and wash the face. Take care around the eyes.
3. If there’s any residue, apply a little oil. Baby oil or coconut oil are great… but olive oil does the trick just as well.
4. Rub oil over the stubborn areas and the stains come right off!

If you do get face paint on clothing or bed sheets, please wash them as the label describes.

I do try to test all of my paints for easy removal and avoid using any brands that stain. Afterall, I don’t want my clothes stained either!

My Face paint is safe for children’s skin as it is specifically designed for use on the face and labelled as non-toxic and hypoallergenic.

I only use good quality professional products which are specially formulated to be friendly to the most delicate skin, they are non-toxic and fragrance-free. 

All my face paints are EU approved and include antibacterial properties. 

The glitters I use are specifically for cosmetic use.

However, If a child has sensitive skin or any skin conditions that may be aggravated by cosmetics I do not recommend they be painted. If you have any concerns we can try a small test area on the inside of the arm.

Although it is extremely rare, I cannot be held responsible for any allergic reaction if the parent/guardian has given their permission.

If you are unsure, ask me to test a small patch of skin before applying it more widely to ensure there are no adverse reactions.

Brushes are washed using specially formulated brush soap and sponges are washed in a washing machine at 40 degrees using non-bio washing powder. This is done following the end of each painting session. All equipment is dried thoroughly stored safely and replaced regularly.

Although I am based in North Bristol, I can travel anywhere within the South West. The first 10 miles of travel are included in the price of the booking. For distances over a 10-mile radius, I reserve the right to charge for travel expenses.
