Face Paint by BODYFX is cosmetic grade and water based, FSA and EU approved, hypoallergenic and non-toxic when used as directed. It contains an active antiseptic agent, so you don't need other antiseptics. Stop using it if a rash develops.
Use lots of water and a little soap. For more intense colours, use anything oily that's OK for skin, like an oil-based makeup remover or natural oils.
Wax-based paints are especially good for line work: very pigmented and vibrant, in regular, pearl and neon. Glycerin-based paints are easier to blend, as they're more flexible and take a bit longer to dry. You can use them together, no problem.
White for highlights and little flowers, black for line work, red for superheroes, orange and yellow for tigers and lions, blue for water and sky, green for leaves and monsters, brown for bears, and pink and purple for princesses, butterflies and flowers. They're all in our 12 Colour Face Paint Palette.
Fine glitter presses into face paint while it's still a little soft. For chunkier glitter, use a little Vaseline (petroleum jelly) first.
