When should I not have my child's face painted?

I am unable to paint anyone if they  have any open cuts or sores on their face or any infectious skin conditions such as cold sores, chicken pox or conjunctivitis, to name a few.

If your child suffers with eczema or any other non-infectious skin conditions the paint should not affect them but if in doubt they should not have their face painted. Usually children get a reaction to the soap or wipes used to remove the Face Paint rather than the paint itself. I am able to offer a patch test at the start of a party/event.

Whilst I can paint children aged 2 and up, children aged between 2 and 3 will only be painted at my discretion.  All children must be able to confirm that they want to be painted and awake! 

I will never paint a child who does not want to be painted, who is asleep, under 2 years of age or anywhere or with anything that I deem to be unsuitable or offensive.
