Removal
The question I get asked quite a lot is "how should facepaints be removed"?
instructions are now on my business cards and here to help you.

Facepaints are water-based so the best way to remove them is using soap and water. Baby shampoo works well as a soap substitute especially in younger children due to its ‘no more tears’ formula.
Lather the soap and water on to the painted area, and create a muck paste. It will look worse before it looks better – don’t panic!
How to Remove Face & Body Paint
Wipe away the paste using a old or dark coloured, damp washcloth
03
Facepaint usually comes away easily on the first wash and wipe, however some pigments can linger in the pores of the skin – particularly if the skin is drier. If this does happen, then apply moisturiser to the effected areas and leave it for 15-30 minutes.​
04
Repeat the removal process.

06
It is not recommended to leave facepaint on overnight
Please don’t scrub at a childs face as you might actually prolong the removal process and hurt them. Babywipes can push the paint further in to the pores and make it harder to remove.

If the paint is close to the eye area, then make up remover can be used on a cotton pad as this is a gentle way of removing the paint.
How to Remove Temporary Tattoos
glitter tattoos can last up to 7 days if kept dry and gently dabbed dry after washing.
remove glitter tattoos with baby oil, or allow the glue to soften in a warm bath and gently rub with baby oil then repheat with your usual bath soap.
