skincitysugarskull5 Q. How much does it cost?

A. The cost of body painting has many variables -- including the amount of time, manpower and supplies needed for any given job. Please call 702.431.7546 and we'll work out what your needs are. You will either be given a quote over the phone, or a quote will be worked out for you in a day or two and sent through email. Note that special discount pricing may be available for multiple models, or if you combine services, such as body paint, hair and makeup, and professional photography.

Q. How long does it take to paint a body?

A. Depending on the design and amount of coverage, a body paint session could take a few minutes or up to six hours or more. A simple one-color, air-brushed stencil could be done in a snap, whereas a full-body, very detailed design could take many hours. Bigger jobs or the need for many models could call for extra body paint artists, which helps reduce the overall prep time.

Q. Will the paint rub off?

A. We use cinema-quality, professional body paint that won't flake, crack, rub off, or smear. It only takes a few minutes to dry, and once dry, you can touch it, hug people, and even throw on light, soft clothing over it.

Q. How long does the paint stay on?

A. If you follow our directions and your skin is free of lotion or oil, the paint should last all day/night. However, all skin types are different, and the paint does need to be treated with relative care.

argx Q. Is it hard to remove the body paint?

A. Everyone who is body painted receives a removal kit (rubbing alcohol and baby oil) and detailed, written instructions.

Q. What kind of paint do you use?

A. Skin City prides itself on using only the highest-quality, professional grade body paint that's safe for skin and non-toxic. Depending on the needs of the job, we'll either use an alcohol-based or a water-based paint. The alcohol-based paint lasts longer takes longer to remove, whereas the water-based paint comes off very easily with soap and water. Water-based paint is always our choice for children and pregnant women. Alcohol-based paint is preferred for event models, performers, and go-go dancers.

Q. What design should I get?

A. You can start by looking through our gallery of photos for inspiration, or do an image search onl skincitybodypainting90 ine. If you can email us reference pictures of body paint you like, that is very helpful. Or you can describe for us what you want, and we'll try to replicate it. Although we can copy designs from pictures, we prefer to custom-make a unique design for every job. Still not sure? Let us know the theme of your event, your company colors, your favorite color, things you like, etc., and we can help you brainstorm or design it all for you.

Q. What do I need to do on the day of body painting?

A. Come with shaved skin and NO OIL OR LOTION on your body. This will affect the paint's adhesion.

Q. What if I have other questions?

A. Feel free to call 702.431.7546 any time! Don't be shy -- we've heard it all! If we're unable to take your call, just leave a message, and someone will get back to you as quickly as possible. Or drop us an email at info@skincitybodypainting.com.
