Body Paint

Post by cincarus » Tue Mar 31, 2009 12:11 pm

I loved the body paints decorative work i have been noticing on various sites that have been here.

They are very VERY nice! I just wanted to tell any and all who do this they are fantastic. :D :D

Oh if you paint someone how does that affect the sunscreen you are wearing? Is it lessened or does the paint block more of the rays. I would think it would block more.

I too enjoyed checking out all of the different body art designs on the participants but for some reason my wife kept smacking me upside the head. :wink:

Seriously though, I would really love to have my face done up with Henna. Anybody know of any camps that gifted that last year?
Excuse me Ma'am, your going to feel a small prick.

Funny, I kept getting smacked too. Now I think I finally know why!
Body paint must be a bad thing.

The T-shirt is body paint, wrinkles and all.

That picture is fantastic!

You have to be one heck of an artist though.

I'd do that my friends suck at painting like me! :D

Oooo! Fabulous! I really must try and see if I have any such talent. My Grandfather had that kind of skill, so maybe I inherited some on his talent?

Can anyone advise us on the type of paint to buy? I found some on the interweb, but in such tiny quantities.

sunscreen and body paints

Post by cincarus » Tue Apr 07, 2009 11:42 am

I wonder how sunscreen affects the body paints? Now you would need it since the sun is so strong, certainly if you painted on an 'outfit'

Good question cincarus. I guess that if you used a cream sun blocker first then painted over it, it should work for any spots that were not painted. I believe that depending on the type of paint you use it too may block out the sun. I have some latex body paint and I read the directions and warnings again and it didn’t say anything about the effects of using a sunscreen. I will be available to help you get to those hard to reach spots if needed. :P

Looks like taking the paint OFF would be more 'interesting' than putting it on! :D

I'm an airbrush artist that normally does makeup. I'm bringing a skin care product that not only block the sun, but are medicated and treat sun-burns, rashes. They will be applied with an airbrush. Very southing.
I love you just the way you are.

Body paint is a good idea... I have troubles finding clothes that would fit me perfectly... :D

Great art!!! By the way... if you don't think about what's underneath the paint, then its not gross...

What's underneath is what makes it interesting. I saw one online where the model was wearing like a racing uniform with corporate logos, very cool.
