DISCLAIMER

I am covered with full Public Liability Insurance and have a enhanced CRB.

The products used are hypoallergenic which should help to minimise the chance of a reaction. If concern remains over sensitivity to products please request a skin patch test prior to painting.

I use only professional paints and products approved by the EU and FDA for their specialist use. Paints include anti fungal, anti bacterial and anti mould agents. Paints used are Snazaroo, Paradise, Krolan and Wolfe Bros.

The highest level of hygiene control is strictly adhered to including a ‘1 sponge per face’ policy to minimise cross infection. I will rinse brushes well and change water frequently.

I wash all sponges used at 60 degrees in the washing machine using a non-bio powder before re-using them.

I reserve the right to refuse to paint a person where it is judged inappropriate due to age or behaviour. If a child cannot keep still enough to have their face painted safely, an alternative area may be painted if suitable. I will NOT under any circumstances paint a child who clearly does not wish to be painted, shows confusion, distress or anxiety or who is asleep, regardless of parents’ wishes.

I would be grateful if dirt or food could be cleaned from a child’s face before painting. I provide wet wipes for parents to use.

I reserve the right to refuse to paint areas on individuals that show symptoms of medical conditions, including, but not limited to; cold sores, open wounds/broken skin, heavy cold with runny nose, conjunctivitis, various infectious skin diseases or infected skin.

I am able to paint individuals with non-contagious skin conditions as long as there is no broken skin or infection or a known potential to worsen the condition. I would request that clients are understanding of this decision.

I will not take responsibility for the welfare and safety of children waiting to be painted. Please ensure children are supervised while waiting.

I use hypoallergenic paints but allergic reactions though rare, cannot be ruled out. I do not take personal responsibility for allergic reactions. A patch test will always be performed prior to painting if there is concern over sensitivity. Please do ask.

Please do not ask me to paint offensive symbols or paint on inappropriate areas of the body. Requests of this nature will be refused without being in breach of any contract or agreement.

I do insist that my products are not touched by the public to ensure the health and hygiene standards are maintained. Parents are to keep small children away from my products at all times.

Removing of paint at home can be done with water and a flannel, some brands will leave a tinge to the skin, these are usually Red, Green and Black. Please do not worry it will fade within a day or so.

Removing of the Glitter Tattoos can be done with 99% alchohol wiped in a circular motion with a cotton pad or allowed to fade with time.

Some paints may stain clothes. I do not accept liability or responsibility for any damage caused to any person or their property at anytime. Most stains are removed by soaking in a stain removal solution prior to washing.

I always use water-soluble paints and in nearly all cases they are non-staining. I will take care in their use but will not take responsibility for spilled paint or soiled clothing so please provide adequate protection where necessary.
