How to remove face paint (easy! simple! painless!)
This is an excellent video that shows exactly what to do:
Written directions:
Use foaming soap - baby shampoo works, regular old hand soap is good too.
Don’t use water yet! Put the foamy soap all over the area that has face paint, and then massage it in so you get a muddy, creamy consistency.
Use a damp washcloth (a dark one or an old one that you don’t care about stains), and wipe off the muddy sludge. It doesn’t always stain the washcloth, but sometimes dark colors do, so better safe than sorry that you used your brand new white washcloths.
It should be gone! If there are any leftover stains, use a tiny bit of oil (baby oil, coconut oil, olive oil, really anything) on a cotton ball and gently rub the stained area.
How to save an awesome face paint!
Can’t bear to wash your face before you go to bed and see that beautiful design go down the drain? Watch this video on how to keep it to enjoy another day:
Written directions:
Lay a baby wipe (or damp paper towel) over the design and press firmly.
Keep it in place for a few seconds for the paint to transfer.
Slowly pull up, and voila! The face paint transfers to the wipe/paper towel.
Hang the wipe/paper towel on your refrigerator to remember the day you got that awesome face paint (this part is optional).
How to remove glitter tattoos
Glitter tattoos will naturally come off in about a week. But if you want to take yours off sooner, or the glitter has come off but there is some glue residue, use rubbing alcohol on a cotton ball and gently rub the area. For stubborn spots, use a bit of baby oil (or other oil) on a cotton ball and rub gently.
