Frequently Asked Questions
Booking your event
​
How do I book an artist?
​
Start by filling out the contact or booking form on our website with your event details. We will get back to you within 48 hours to confirm availability and finalize the booking process. To secure your date and time, you will be asked to sign a contract and pay a deposit or booking fee.
​
How far in advance should I book?
​
The sooner, the better. We recommend booking as soon as your event date and time are confirmed. Peak seasons like holidays and summer weekends can book up months or even a year in advance.
​
What payment methods do you accept?
​
We typically accept payments via credit card, check, or digital payment apps like Venmo. We will sometimes accept the balance in cash on the day of the event. A deposit is required to hold your reservation, with the final payment due on the day of the event.
​
What is your cancellation policy?
​
Our cancellation policy is outlined in the booking contract. Deposits are generally non-refundable. If you must cancel or reschedule, please provide notice well in advance, usually at least 7 days before your event, to avoid paying the full amount.
​
What if the weather is bad?
​
For outdoor events, we ask that you have an indoor backup location available in case of inclement weather. We do not offer refunds for weather-related cancellations.
​
Event logistics and preparation
​
How much space does the artist need?
​
For face painting, artists typically require a 6x6-foot space with a table (at least 4 feet long) and two adult-sized chairs. For outdoor events, a shaded, covered area is mandatory to protect the artist and paints from direct sunlight, wind, and rain.
​
What do I need to provide for the artist?
​
The artist will bring all their supplies. For face painters, this includes professional-grade paints, brushes, and glitter. You just need to provide the designated space, table, and chairs. For Airbrush the only additional need would be an electrical outlet nearby.
​
Face painting and Airbrush services
​
What kind of face and body paint do you use?
​
We use only professional, cosmetic-grade face and body paints from reputable brands like Global, TAG, Wolfe, and Fusion. These paints are FDA-approved, hypoallergenic, and safe for use on the skin. We never use acrylic or craft paints.
What Kind of Airbrush Tattoo Paint do you use?
​
For airbrush tattoos, we use a different cosmetic-grade, alcohol-based paint that is waterproof and sweat-resistant.
​
How do you ensure hygiene?
​
We prioritize sanitation by using clean brushes and fresh sponges for every child. Our brushes and sponges are washed with antibacterial soap between events, and we use a clean water rinsing system.
​
Are there age limits for face painting?
​
For safety reasons, we prefer not to paint the faces of children under three years old. A design on the arm is a great alternative for younger or more timid children.
​
How do I remove the face paint?
​
Our face paints are water-activated and remove easily with mild soap and water. For persistent colors, cold cream or makeup remover can help.
​
How many faces can an artist paint in an hour?
​
Depending on the complexity of the designs, a single artist can paint 10–20 faces per hour. If you have a large number of guests, we can offer a quicker "speed menu" or suggest booking an additional artist.
How many airbrush tattoos can an artist apply in an hour?
​
Depending on the size and complexity of the design, an artist can apply 10-20 tattoos and hour.
​
How long will glitter tattoos or airbrush tattoos last?
​
Airbrush and glitter tattoos are water resistant and sweat resistant making them ideal for summer and water play. These tattoos usually last 3- 7 days or longer with careful handling.
​
My child is afraid of having their face painted. What should I do?
​
We never force a child to get painted. If they are hesitant, we can offer to paint a small design on their arm instead, allowing them to participate in the fun at their own comfort level.
​
What if a guest has a skin condition or a cut?
​
For the safety of all guests, we will not paint anyone with a rash, cold sore, open cut, sunburn, or other infectious skin condition.
​
How do I remove Glitter and Airbrush Tattoos?
​
To remove glitter and airbrush tattoos, apply oil (like baby oil or coconut oil) or rubbing alcohol to a cotton pad or soft cloth and gently rub the tattoo until it fades. For glitter tattoos, the oil breaks down the adhesive, while for airbrush tattoos, it dissolves the ink or adhesive. After the tattoo is gone, wash the area with warm water and soap to remove any residue.
Balloon twisting services
​
How fast can a balloon twister work?
​
This depends on the complexity of the creation. A simple, one-balloon creation takes about 30 seconds, while more detailed designs can take longer.
​
What kind of balloons do you use?
​
We use high-quality, professional-grade latex balloons
​
What if a balloon pops?
​
If a balloon pops, we do our best to replace/fix the balloon. We also take care to avoid popping balloons by using high-quality materials.
​
Are balloons safe for all ages?
​
Balloon twisting is fun for all ages, but adult supervision is required for children under seven due to the choking hazard of broken balloons.
​
Can the balloon twister customize designs?
​
Yes! We can create designs to match your event's theme. Please inform us of your theme in advance.

Airbrush Favors and Apparel FAQ
What types of apparel can be airbrushed?
​
We can airbrush on a variety of apparel, including T-shirts, hoodies, sweatpants, and hats and sneakers. We can also work on other fabric items like pillowcases and tote bags. For best results, fabrics should be at least 50% cotton. Very slick or treated fabrics, like waterproof materials, are not suitable.
​
Can I provide my own apparel for customization?
​
Yes, you can provide the apparel to be airbrushed. The item must be approved at booking.
​
Can you airbrush on black or dark-colored apparel?
​
Yes, but airbrushing on dark items requires more time and effort. A white base must be applied first to make the colors pop, which means dark garments take more time and often cost more to paint.
​
Do you offer custom designs?
​
Yes, custom designs are available. Please let us know the party theme.
​
Do you take measures to make sure the airbrush paint doesn't get anywhere?
​
The airbrush paint doesn't spray anywhere but where we intended for it to spray. We also bring drop clothes for where we are set up to further ensure that everything stays neat.
