Face Painting Information

Safety is our top most concern. When you hire us, you will know that we use Snazaroo paints, which are specifically designed for face painting. They are professional water based make-up for face painting, Non-Toxic and FDA approved.

For children under three years of age we will only paint on hands and cheeks as young children have sensitive skin. It is very important for us that your face painting experience is a good one.

Tips for selecting a Party Entertainer

(Face Painter)There are several important things to consider when hiring an entertainer (specifically, a face painter) for your party. You want to consider quality, speed, method, attention to child, experience, knowledge and cost.

Quality When parents pick up their children, do you want them to rush home to wash off their child's face, or do you want them to hurry home so they can take a picture? Our designs often inspire comments like "I’ve never seen face painting like yours!" and "Your work is Amazing!"

Speed, or Quantity Do you want to hire a face painter who can paint 5 cheeks in an hour or would you rather get 15-18 cheek paintings in an hour? Do you want someone who is adept at painting, while has the ability to work quickly so that all of your guests will be painted? When hiring a face painter make sure to ask these questions. Full face vs. cheek art; how many per hour.

Method Do you want a face painter who holds up a stencil and sprays some paint on a child's face for a few seconds, or rubs on a sticker (evidently with no embarrassment at charging for it)? Or would you rather get real art, by a real artist, customized with a limitless variety to meet the requests of each child, and created before your very eyes? FaceParty never uses stencils, spray paint, or stickers. FaceParty uses paint brushes. This is our art and ability. They allow us an amazing range of artistic ability.

Attention to the Child. We believe that our art is entertainment; therefore we take every step possible to make the process fun too. Part of the fun is getting your face painted. The brushes tickle your face, the sponges relax you. The process can be relaxing for adults and fun for children. (did you ever fall asleep while having your hair done?) It is important for us to have every child leave with a smile.

Entertainment Our face painters are trained to engage the children while painting their faces. We strive to provide a superior service to our patrons. We talk to the children, ask them questions about themselves, talk about age appropriate things with them so the time passes more quickly. Our pictures are displayed on our table while we work so other children in line can pick out what they want.

Experience Our face painters are parents themselves. This is key for hiring a face painter. Firstly it ensures that the person you are hiring has some knowledge about parenting. They have their own children and are more likely to understand how to deal with children. We know how precious your children are because we have our own…so we treat each child as they are our own.

To sum it up

When comparing all of these factors you will be ready to hire a face painter. Deciding what is important to you before hand will help in the decision making process. We hope that you will consider us for your party needs.
