Face Painting by Linda

The so-called “face paint” found in your local stores such as Hobby Lobby and Michael’s, contains lead and is NOT FDA approved-for-skin, and in fact has caused some kids problems such as rashes. The glitter I use is also cosmetic-grade, “FDA approved-for-skin”, made from polyester, and will not harm the skin or eyes. Glitter purchased in your local stores is made from metal and NOT approved for use on skin. I’m sure you know what could happen if metal glitter got in the eyes. Even the glue that professional Facepainter’s use for gems or glitter tattoos, is medical-grade, FDA approved-for-skin. Professional face painting products cannot be bought in your local stores. So if you wonder why face painters charge what we do....it’s cause these products are not cheap.😉 So if you ever think you’re getting a good deal by finding a face painter that charges less than $100 an hour, you can be sure they are not using professional supplies.
