Frequently Asked Questions
Everything parents and party planners ask us before booking — answered with love. Don't see your question? Just reach out!
✦Is the face paint safe for my child's skin?
Absolutely — safety comes first, always. We use only professional, FDA-compliant, hypoallergenic cosmetic-grade paints and glitters made specifically for skin. We never use craft paint, acrylics, or craft glitter. Our kits are cleaned and sanitized between events, and we use fresh mineral water and clean sponges for every party.
✦How does the paint come off?
Easily! Warm water, gentle soap, and a soft washcloth remove everything at bath time. For darker colors, a little baby oil or makeup remover helps lift any last traces. No scrubbing needed — we promise your little tiger will be back to normal by morning.
✦How many children can you paint per hour?
We paint approximately 08-10 faces per hour, depending on design complexity. For larger events, we can offer a curated "party menu" of designs that keeps lines moving quickly while every child still gets something beautiful. Planning a big crowd? Ask us about multi-artist packages!
✦How long do glitter tattoos last?
Glitter tattoos are waterproof and last 3–7 days — they survive pools, beach days, and bath time! When you're ready to remove one, rubbing alcohol or baby oil on a cotton pad takes it right off.
✦What areas do you serve?
We're based in Miami and serve all of Miami-Dade County — including Kendall, Kendale Lakes, The Hammocks, Pinecrest, Coral Gables, Doral, and Homestead. Traveling a bit farther? Ask us — we love an adventure, and a small travel fee may apply.
✦How far in advance should I book?
Weekends fill up fast — especially during the holidays! We recommend booking 2–4 weeks ahead for private parties and earlier for large events and festivals. Last-minute magic? Reach out anyway; if we have the date, it's yours.
✦Is there an age minimum for face painting?
We paint full faces for children 3 and up. For littles under 3, we offer adorable small designs on the arm or hand instead — delicate skin and wiggly little faces deserve extra gentleness! And yes, grown-ups get painted too. Some of our biggest fans are the parents. ✨
✦What happens if it rains?
Florida weather keeps us on our toes! For outdoor events, we simply need a covered, shaded spot — a tent, patio, or garage works perfectly. If your event needs to be rescheduled due to weather, let us know as soon as possible and we'll work with you to find a new date.
✦What do you need from us on the day?
Just a small table, two chairs, and a shaded or indoor spot — we bring everything else! We arrive early to set up our station so the magic starts right on time.
✦Are you insured? Can you work at venues and public events?
Yes! We are fully insured and contract-ready, with liability coverage in place. We regularly work with museums, gardens, festivals, and family venues across Miami, and we're happy to provide documentation for your venue's requirements.
