Generally, most paint can be easily removed with mild soap and water. Occasionally some paints may leave a bit of a stain on the skin. Try the following tips if that occurs:
1. Don’t rub it. This will push the paint into your pores.
2. Use a safe soap such as make up remover, no tears baby shampoo, face wash, etc. Make a paste with the soap and paint on your skin. Leave it on for about 30-60 seconds, then rinse off with water.
3. For any remaining color, use oil free make up remover.
4. If color remains, apply a moisturizing lotion on the area and leave it alone for 30 minutes or longer. Then wash again.
5. You may also try using baby oil on a cotton ball.

If a stain remains, don’t panic. It will not last forever! All discoloration will eventually slough off within 24 hours. In the meantime, consider it a conversation starter. 🙂
