My prices are completely transparent, no need to “request a quote” and wait for me to get back to you. All the events and their prices are listed on my Prices & Booking page.

As to when I’m available, I work a 9-5 M-F job in the insurance industry, so I do face painting jobs in the evenings and on weekends. The calendar you’ll find on this page and on my Prices & Booking page show days that are already completely booked up with no more availability. To know for sure about a specific day/time/location you’ll need to send me an inquiry.

I started doing face painting as a volunteer during church activities. I wanted to do an excellent job so I started researching professional face painting, and after a number of years of volunteering, I started to be asked if I did parties, and I realized it was time to turn this into a business.

I’m so happy that I did! It gives me a lot of joy to be there for families during their special times, helping them to make joyful memories!

Removing Face Paint from Skin

When removing face paint start with a thin coating of mild soap approved for use on the face (such as baby soap), and use a soft wash cloth, and warm (not hot) water. Do not use alcohol, mineral oil, makeup removers, strong soaps, or baby wipes.

Once the soap has been massaged in, rinse with warm water. And if the pigment persists, try rubbing coconut oil onto the skin. You should let it it sit for several minutes, and then gently remove it with a soft cloth.

In the rare case in which a pigment is still visible after this process, please wait for 24 hours before attempting to wash the area again. And always make sure to be gentle, because excessive rubbing of skin can, itself, cause irritation.

Removing Face Paint from Fabric

To remove face paint from cloth or clothing, gently work in an oxygen activated laundry stain remover with lukewarm water and soak the garment for at least five minutes to overnight, then wash as indicated on the care label. Avoid using the drier because that can set the stain. Hang to dry and check the stain to see if it remains. If so, repeat stain removal process.

These are professional water activated face paints and glitters that are tested for use on the face and eye area. Brand names may include: GTX, Diamond FX, Superstar, Professional Colors, Fusion Body Art, TAG, and Kraze, to name a few. I do not use anything that has not been approved and tested by professional face paint artists.

If sensitive skin is involved, ASK FOR A PATCH TEST. These are professional water-based face paints and glitters that are tested for use on the face and eye area—but those with sensitive skin may still have a reaction.

If irritation seems to be occurring, remove face paint immediately, otherwise remove before bedtime.

Although rare, allergic reactions can sometimes happen. I am not responsible for allergic reactions.

I do face painting in the area surrounding Vandalia, Dayton, Troy and Tipp City in Ohio. Outside my general service area, extra travel fees will apply.
