When shopping for face paint and body paint for children or adults with sensitive skin, consider shopping for hypoallergenic makeup and body paint to prevent irritation. Before applying a full face of make-up or painting with body paint, make sure to do a small spot test on the skin, and if your skin has a reaction, stop use.
Finding the right kind of face paint depends on your needs and the type of look you are going for:
Completely getting paint stains out of your clothes heavily depends on what type of body paint you are using. But if an accident does happen and you need to remove the stain, here are some helpful tips:
Special effects makeup can be a little trickier to remove once applied - but can be harsh on the skin if not removed correctly. This is why many products are used, such as isopropyl alcohol and even olive oil to help remove the SFX makeup properly. However, the effort is worth it as the results are far superior to using traditional face paint.
Body paint should be used for blocking large areas of your body with colour, or for creating bold lines on the face and body like thick brows, over-the-top wrinkles and faux tattoos. Body paint can be applied with a sponge or paintbrush.
Makeup is used to create fine details on the face, like moles, freckles, bruising and lines, as well as enhancing features to a more defined look, like cheekbones, the nose and the jaw. Makeup is applied with a sponge or small makeup brush.
You can easily match your makeup to your costume, but if you're stuck for ideas some classics include skeleton makeup, witch makeup, zombie makeup and vampire makeup. For video tutorials on these, check out our blog on Halloween face paint ideas!
