I only use professional cosmetic grade FDA compliant face paints, glitters, gels and glues made especially for use on the skin. I do not use craft paints. Just because something is labeled washable or non-toxic does not mean it is safe for the skin. The water based face and body paints I use really aren't paints at all, they are cosmetics made according stringent standard using only FDA approved ingredients. Anyone with very sensitive skin should have a "patch test" done at the beginning of an event.
I offer several different party packages, prices start at $75 (minimum) for a small party of up to 10 children and go up to $200. They can include anything from full face designs for everyone and/or glitter tattoos for every child as well. I also have corporate event packages as well. A travel charge may apply for traveling a certain distance outside of the La Crosse WI area, so the cost of each party might vary. I am willing to travel to help you with your body art needs but I need exact locations. Please contact me to discuss details.
I typically work within 50 miles of 54601, (La Crosse, WI) however we will travel (almost) anywhere as long as the client is willing to provide compensation for transportation and travel.
Use a gentle cleanser, no tears baby shampoo, face wash, etc. Make a paste with the soap and the paint and lather the area painted. Let the soap and paint paste sit for 30 seconds. Rinse or wipe away gently with a dark wash cloth, but DO NOT SCRUB! If you or your child has been painted around the eye area please use a make up remover or soap that is proven safe for use around the eyes. If any trace color remains you can apply moisturizer or baby oil with a cottonball and wait 15 minutes before repeating removal instructions above, or you can wait until the next day when you shower
Henna is a paste made from a flowering plant. The paste I use is all natural and made from lemon juice, sugar, (or maple syrup), henna powder and essential oils. That's it. The paste is applied in patterns on the skin and left to dry. Once dry the paste will flake off and leave a stain on the skin that will stay for 5-10 days, so it's important to make sure you have a good henna artist.
Real henna is never black. If you see a sign offering you a black henna tattoo, be afraid. Real henna is a beautiful orange stain that will darken into a brownish stain on your skin, real henna is never black. Black henna has harsh chemicals added to it, (PPD , para-phenylenediamine, is the most common), that are harmful and can leave life long scarring and permanent health damage to those that get them. Please be aware of what products you are putting on your skin at all times! For more information about black henna please visit the Henna Lounge .
