Being a face painter, it's really important that your paints are clean and hygienic. A few ways you can do that is using a nice Brush Bath. I love the Silly Farm Brush Bath! Not only does it clean and sanitize, but when I stir my brushes around in the bath that I have made for it, it takes the paint off really nicely.

Clean a brush after every use. Also make sure that you're not using brushes on the lips and then putting it back into the paint pot.

Another thing is, if the paint is wet, it's a good idea to leave the cap off and just let it air dry. This way, it doesn't become a little petri dish when you stick the cap back on.

You also don't want to overuse sponges. You use it a few times, you put it away, and you use a nice fresh one. You can get a product called Beauty So Clean. I always have this and I love to keep this out so that everyone feels especially comfortable about the paints I'm using. And you spritz it right onto your paints and it disinfects and sanitizes. You can also spritz it right onto your sponges, and smells nice too!

I use a brush cleaner or hibiclens from the hospital. I use q tips around the lips. I load a q tip heavily with the lipstick color. If i need more color I toss it and get a new one.

Also, if a child has any sign of infection Or impetigo, I will paint on an arm or something. I’ve had parents get mad at me when their child is coughing or has other cold symptoms and I refuse to paint on them or do their arm while they wear a mask.

I have reactive airway disease. I can’t afford to have s child get me sick too!
