Booked for Christmas party

From start to finish Sarah was amazing. The kids couldn't believe how good the painting was and the parents were over the moon too. She made everyone feel very at ease and just so efficient at getting through everyone. Could not recommend more and will definitely book again.

My daughter had a lovely time at her 3rd birthday and was so happy to get her face painted with all her friends. The lady was very talented and had so much choice! Would definitely use again x

Booked for Birthday party for kids

Tracy did an amazing job painting the children's faces! She was really fast, and she was able to fulfil all the children requests (from animals, to super hero or disney characters)! I booked a 2 hour slot for 30 children and she was able to paint everyone's faces with time to spare! Super friendly and extremely professional! I would definitely book Tracy again or recommend her!!!!

Booked for Birthday party for kids

Harry was fantastic! Booked for a superhero themed 5th birthday party. He arrived with plenty of time, set up seamlessly and simply cracked on! The children loved him and parents were equally as impressed. Birthday boy was particularly chuffed with his special incredible hulk birthday balloon! Would definitely recommend!
