Each face takes
approximately 5 minutes, so you can judge how long you
are likely to have to wait in the queue for a face
paint.
-
Face painting
on a child less than three years of age is not advised …
but at my discretion I may paint their arm or leg
instead.
-
The face
painting products I use have all been thoroughly tested
and the paints are hypoallergenic… but if you think your
child might still have a reaction please ask for a
tester on their arm first.
-
Please do not
let children in your care crowd too close to the face
painting table or chair so as to avoid any jogging of
children being painted, or accidental ‘fingers in
paints’. Please supervise and control any children in
your care when queuing. I do not want to
accidentally step on your child if I do not see they are
standing right behind me.
-
Parents/carers
must take full responsibility in allowing children to be
painted, and I reserve the right not to paint an
unaccompanied child. Please do not ask me to ‘watch’
your child in the queue while you go shopping, as I am
here to do face painting !
-
I cannot face
paint children with cold sores, conjunctivitis, sties,
head lice, open sores or other obvious rashes or
abrasions.
-
Please make
sure your child has a clean face if they have been
eating or drinking before presenting them for a face
painting.
-
Whilst I will
encourage a child who is reluctant, I will only face
paint a child who wants to be face painted.
-
The face paint
will come off faces with soap and water on a flannel.
-
Any accidental
marks on clothing should come out with a wash in
biological washing powder...If not a soak in Biotex or
similar will normally shift stubborn marks.
-
I am a
professional face painter and as such have full public
liability cover, and have been CRB checked.
-
I am a member
of FACE (the face painting association) and also of FACE
UK.
-
If you would
like to learn face painting yourself, I run face
painting courses where you can learn to face paint
safely in a fun and friendly forum
