Depending on the coverage and body area you will need to shower prior to your body paint session and refrain from any body lotions or body oils. Specific areas of your body may need to be shaved, as it helps with a smooth finish.
Most of the face paint we use is water based and can easily be removed with water/soap and water. Some areas may require make-up remover. For all body paint clients you will receive a removal packet consisting of make-up remover and baby oil along with a wash rag (This is covered in the body painting fee)
