Dear Parents,
Important - Please read!
When you book a face painter, do you actually check what products are in their kit, or do you just assume they’re all compliant?
Most people assume that all face painters paints are safe, the hygiene is good, and that the person knows exactly what they’re doing. Because in most people’s minds, it’s “just face paint.”
But if we’re being honest, you probably haven’t actually asked them what products are being put on your child’s skin.
You haven’t asked if the paints are compliant, how brushes and sponges are cleaned between each face, or what training that person has. You’ve just trusted it’s fine.
And sometimes it is.
But sometimes, it really isn’t.
And unless you know what you’re looking for, you wouldn’t spot the difference until it’s too late. That’s the bit people don’t like to think about.
Because this isn’t paint on paper. It’s not just a party extra. It’s paint on skin. Your child’s precious skin.
So when you book “just a face painter”, what you’re actually doing is taking a bit of a gamble with your child’s safety. No checks, no questions, just trust.
Now here’s the alternative.
When you book a professional face painter, it isn’t a gamble. You’re getting safe, compliant products, proper hygiene every single time, experience painting on skin, and someone who understands exactly what products should and shouldn’t go anywhere near skin.
Because this really isn’t about how well someone can paint a tiger or a unicorn. It’s whether they should be painting on skin at all.
So no, it’s not “just face paint.” And it never was.
