"My daughter who is 8 reacts to Snazaroo make up which is meant to be one of the more skin friendly make ups. I'm wondering if you would have samples of the brand that you sell so we could check if it'll work for us? We used to love facepainting here."

Me: "Tell you what: if you order some and it irritates her skin, just let me know and I'll refund you and take it back from you to use as a demo."

Parent: "We got the paints yesterday and tried them! Success!!! Thank you so much! They stayed on for ages without fading too! I was so pleasantly surprised! Absolutely delighted that my daughter now has face paint options. Thank you so much for your help!"

Improvements we're working on in this product: We have asked the maker to work on their packaging imagery - to add more ethnic diversity, to feature children with visible disabilities, to shake-up gender stereotyping, and to omit cultural insensitivity like dressing-up as a native American. They're already doing this as each product reprints, and their most recent products are really good in this respect. So we're glad to support them, as they are so great in nearly every other aspect, and taking action on this former blind spot.

Care/use instructions
