What face paint is used?  

 

 

  • We use professional face and body makeup that is hypoallergenic, and is easily washed off with soap and water. Certain colours may leave a little colour behind, and if so, gently rub the skin with some moisturiser to remove. All glitters used by us are cosmetic glitters, and therefore are safe to use around eyes.

  • Please be thorough when enquiring about your chosen face painters paint products. Acrylic paints are NOT designed for use on skin and should never be used for this purpose: ACRYLIC paint is plastic.  Craft glitters are cut in a hexagonal shape and are very dangerous to use near eyes, so please do not use craft glitter for cosmetic purposes.

 

What about health and safety?

 

  • Faces by Ainslie works with health and hygiene standards to an exceptional level. You can be assured that Ainslie has the strictest health policies in place and is vigilant in enforcing these policies. Sanitisation and cleanliness is of the highest priority.

 

 

  • Any client with visible signs of contagious illness and infections, ring worm, cold sores, conjunctivitis or other, will not be painted due to health and safety policies.

  • Children who are visibly upset and distressed about being face painted will not be painted, even at the parents insistence. Face painting should be fun and enjoyable, and I do not wish to tarnish this experience for them. If and when they are ready, they will choose to be painted and delight in it.

  • Due to the delicate nature of baby skin, children under 12 months old can not be painted.

  • The requests that children make are uniquely theirs, and they have often put in time and thought to what they may like to transform into. Please let them be who they want their imaginations to be, they have a magic that they wish to see come alive.
