Face painting is suitable for ages from 2 yrs to enjoy !! However ,all participants must be willing to be painted and prepared to sit still for the period of time required. Unfortunately, for Health & safety reasons we are unable to paint anyone with cold sores, conjunctivitis or any other infections or skin complaints. Similarly eczema, acne or open cuts and grazes are not a suitable surface to paint. However, a design on hand or arm may be possible. Please feel free to ask for advice.We are unable to paint anyone suffering from cold / flu symptoms. Without prejudice we reserve the right to refuse to paint anyone we feel should not be painted.
It is the responsibility of the person responsible for the child, to inform us of any reason medical or otherwise why the child should not be painted. This includes children with sensitive skin, which we must be informed of before painting commences. We can carry out a small skin patch test which will be left on for 20 minutes to see if a reaction occurs. Please feel free to ask for a patch test if in any doubt.
We need a clean face/surface to paint; so we have baby wipes available for parent/guardians to wipe noses and mouths if necessary before we start. It is the responsibility of the client to inform parents /guardians/ carers that a face painter is present at the party / event and to inform us if a particular child is not to be
painted! If parents are leaving the premises it is the clients responsibility to make them aware that Face Painting is taking place and to inform us if any child is not to be painted,for whatever reason.
Alternatively if preferred by the client we can supply individual consent forms to be signed by parents and returned to us. if this option is chosen we will only be able to paint children who have returned signed consent forms. We are face painters and not childminders and are not responsible for looking after children. Therefore we will not be held liable for anything that happens to a child either in or out of our face paining area. All children remain the responsibility of Parent /Guardian / Carer / Party host / Client.
