SKIN PREP
On the day of the body painting, DO NOT wear any product on your skin where you are getting painted. No lotions, moisturizers, sun tan lotion, sun block, cocoa butter, tanning oil, bronzers, baby oil, perfume or body spray. These products make the paint not adhere to your body and rub off easily. 

​

 

PHOTO REFERENCES

Please bring any reference pics with you the day of the painting. Even if you have already sent me photos as references.

​

​

PANTIES/BOTTOMS
If you want me to paint you below the waist, and prefer to wear panties under the paint, you have 2 options.

• Option 1 : Bring plain nude panties or a thong I can paint over. Target sells plain nude seamless underwear for just $5 (they are located in the bins, not on the rack). They take the paint great - meaning, red paint doesn't turn pink. Again, get the nude color... not white, and not black (paint won't show up on the black).  Make sure they are plain (not lace fabric).

• Option 2: I will also have disposable, adhesive strapless panties called Shibues with me for purchase.

ARRIVE EARLY - BE ON TIME - DO NOT BE LATE
Set your alarm! Arrive 5 minutes before your appointment. Do not call me telling me you are running 10 minutes late. Simply be on time. You arriving 10 minutes late means I am starting 10 minutes late and that sets every appointment after you late throughout the ENTIRE day. If you are 15 minutes late past your appointment, you lose your spot - YES, EVEN IF you paid the non-refundable deposit. So be on time or lose your spot. No exceptions!!! But I know you will be on time! You can do it!!! I am rooting for you!!!!

ART TAKES TIMES
You can't rush great art! I am a body paint artist... key word is "artist". As my collection of work shows, I like to provide amazing art. Thus, sometimes I have to do my art thing and add some extra awesomeness to a design because I am in the zone. As we have all heard the cliché, great art takes time. Thus, be patient. Relax and enjoy the experience.

​

​

DURABILITY
The paint should last all day and night as long as you are careful with it. Friction, abrasive material, liquid (and moisture) is pretty much what can ruin the paint.  Here are some things that can ruin the paint...

• Wearing all thousand pairs of beads that people gave you on the street (this is probably because you are a wild freak. I dig it.)

• Spilling tequila on yourself (why are you wasting tequila?)

• Your friend spilling tequila on you (you need better friends)

• Any type of liquid really - Water, Rain, Showers, Swimming Pools, Cannonballing into Hot Tubs (where is my invite?)

• Hugging people (how many people depends on you. On that note - where is my hug?)

• Posing with lots of people for photos (aka brushing up against people constantly)

• Getting freaky (obviously)

• Wearing Clothes or Costumes over the paint.

• Sleeping in the Paint (I am honored that you dream about me)

PAINT REMOVAL
I will be using a lot of alcohol-based body paints (for durability), so here is my suggestion for removing the paint. Before getting wet, put body wash/liquid soap all over the painted areas of your body and massage it thoroughly into the paint. Then rinse it off with a loofah. Then, for any areas the paint still lingers - remove it with 91% or 99% rubbing alcohol.

MY DEPOSIT POLICY / NO REFUNDS

All deposits are non-refundable (this includes if you cancel, pull a no show or show up so late that I couldn't paint you with enough time to start my next scheduled appointment). If for some reason I had to cancel for personal reasons - I would refund your deposit. 

​

​

RIGHT TO REFUSE SERVICE
I reserve the right to refuse service (or immediately end the paint session without refund) to anyone that is being rude, acting like a jerk, bitching and complaining, being a drunk a-hole, or is late for their appointment... so be nice and on time.
