🚨 Event organisers… can I ask you to spend just two minutes reading this please?

When you’re booking entertainment for your event, it’s natural to compare prices.

But with face painting, the cheapest quote isn’t always the best value.

Professional face painting is about far more than colourful designs. It’s about children’s safety, hygiene, insurance, professional products, honest advertising, queue management and protecting your event’s reputation.

The visual aid below aims to help organisers understand what they’re really paying for when they hire a professional face painter.

Whether you book me or someone else, I genuinely hope it helps you ask the right questions before making a decision.

What an amazing night it was at the Redbanks Cracker Night 2026! So much fun, and really well attended. Congratulations all around to the organizers! If you have photos of my face painting feel free to share, I didn't have much time to take many 😁. As you can see the 'fireworks' were popular!
