Code of Practice
Common sense guidelines to ensure that members work in a safe and practical fashion:
- Always use guild approved paints and products that are designed for the skin.
- If glitter is used, use only ultra fine, hex cut .08 cut polyester glitter or glitter gels designed for the skin.
- Do not paint a child with a cold sore or any other apparent skin disease.
- Use clean utensils, wash containers, brushes and sponges thoroughly after each session. Try to keep them clean during the session.
- Change brush water frequently.
- Be extra careful when painting near the eyes, especially on very young children and those unable to keep still.
- Clean any dirt or food from a child’s face before starting. Look out for runny noses!
- Do not add disinfectant to the water as the paint already contains agents which act against yeast, mold and bacteria.
