Will the paint rub off?

I use cinema-quality, professional body paint that won’t flake, crack, rub off, or smear. It only takes a few minutes to dry, and once dry, you can touch it, hug people, and even throw on light, soft clothing over it.

​

How long does the paint stay on?

If you follow the directions and your skin is free of lotion or oil, the paint should last all day/night. However, all skin types are different, and the paint does need to be treated with relative care.

 

Is it hard to remove the body paint?

I recommend having dishwashing liquid on hand for the removal process. Apply a thin layer of the soap to your body paint, let it sit for a few minutes, then wipe off the paint with baby wipes or a damp rag. Any remaining paint will come off with more dishwashing liquid in the shower. Any stubborn bath tile stains can be cleaned with rubbing alcohol.

​

What kind of [paint do you use?

I use high quality, professional grade body paint that’s safe for skin and non-toxic. Depending on the needs of the job, we’ll either use an alcohol-based or a water-based paint. The alcohol-based paint lasts longer and takes longer to remove, whereas the water-based paint comes off very easily with soap and water.

Where is your studio?  Will you travel to me? 

Getting prepped at my Studio can be part of the fun. But if you prefer the privacy of your home or hotel room we will travel within San Diego area for a small additional travel fee.
