FAQs
Do you have public liability insurance and/or a DBS/CRB?
Yes! I have both insurance and a DBS (formerly CRB). These are in place for your extra peace of mind.
Do I need to provide anything?
Just a space to set up against a wall, with room for queuing. Please note I can only paint outside between May and September. For outside, I will need a fully sheltered area, with walls and on flat ground. I bring my own table and chair.
What ages can you paint?
Anywhere from 3 years upwards – there is no upwards limit to wanting to experience the wonder of face painting!
How many can you paint?
I can generally paint a maximum of 25 children in two hours (10-12 children per hour). If you have up to 30, please let me know and I may bring faster designs or you may need to book more time. Please note the smaller the number of children – up to 15 is ideal! – the more detailed and tailored the designs. I work on a minimum 2 hour booking.
If outside, do you have a gazebo?
If the event is outside (only between May and September) then you must supply a fully sheltered area, with walls and on flat ground. If you require a gazebo, we may be able to provide one, though it will incur additional charges.
Which paints do you use?
We only use the top professional grade paints. The brands we use the most are: Tag, Fusion, DFX, Global and FPA.
How long do face paintings last?
Usually all day, if the design doesn’t get wet! If slept in, it may come off on your pillow, which can stain.
How do I remove the paint?
Simple flannel, soap and water usually does the trick. If there is still a stain you can try baby oil or makeup remover – one you know is suitable for your skin.
How far do you travel?
We mainly cover the Warwickshire and surrounding areas such as; Leamington Spa, Warwick, Kenilworth, Rugby, Stratford and Coventry. We can travel anywhere in the UK and even abroad- please enquire!
