Got a question about booking, our paints, or how we work? Here are answers to the things people ask most often before booking Painted Smiles NE.
Still unsure? Don't hesitate to get in touch — we're always happy to chat through your event details.
Absolutely. We use only professional-grade, water-based face paints that are hypoallergenic, non-toxic, and specifically designed for use on skin — including children's sensitive skin. They wash off easily with warm water.
On average, 10–12 detailed designs per hour, or up to 15–20 for simpler designs. We'll discuss expected throughput when planning so everyone is comfortably catered for.
As early as possible — weekends and school holidays fill up quickly. That said, we always try to accommodate last-minute requests where availability allows.
Cancellations made more than 7 days before the event receive a full deposit refund. Please get in touch as soon as possible if you need to adjust your booking.
Yes — we come to you across North East England. A small travel fee may apply for events further afield. Just include your location when you enquire and we'll confirm everything clearly upfront.
