Yes. Glitter tattoos are applied with skin-safe adhesive and cosmetic glitter, are waterproof, and last up to three days. Same rate: from R1150/hour.
Can the designs match our party theme?
Tell us the theme in advance and we'll prepare a matching design menu. Superheroes, animals, princesses and unicorns lead the requests.
How many children can one painter cover?
10–12 faces an hour, depending on design detail. For bigger events we bring more painters.

How far in advance should I book a face painter in Kensington?
