About Our Children's Party Face Painting

Transform your child's birthday party into an unforgettable celebration with Mika's professional children's party face painting service. Specialising in vibrant, imaginative designs that capture every child's imagination, Mika uses only the highest-quality, skin-safe paints — including the beloved Kryolan, Diamond FX, TAG, Mehron, Face Paints Australia and Fusion Body Art ranges — which are specifically formulated for sensitive young skin and fully compliant with EU cosmetics regulations. With years of experience entertaining children of all ages, Mika has developed a wonderfully fast and efficient technique that keeps queues short and excitement high. On average, Mika can paint between 24 and 32 faces in a two-hour session, ensuring that every child at your party gets their dream design without excessive waiting around. From full-face transformations — roaring lions, glittering unicorns, fearsome dragons, and delicate fairies — to quick cheek art for younger or shyer children, every design is tailored to the individual child's wishes. Mika creates a warm, welcoming atmosphere that puts even nervous little ones at ease, making the face painting experience as magical as the design itself. The service includes full set-up and pack-down, a dedicated face painting station, all paints, brushes, sponges, and glitter. Mika carries £10M public liability insurance through BAPIA, giving parents complete peace of mind. Whether your party is at home, a village hall, a soft-play venue, or a garden, Mika brings everything needed to create the perfect pop-up face painting studio. Booking is simple — just get in touch to check availability, confirm your guest numbers, and let the magic begin.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many children can you paint in two hours?
Mika can typically paint between 24 and 32 faces in a two-hour session, depending on design complexity. Full-face designs take longer than cheek art, so a mix of both is recommended for larger groups.
Are the paints safe for children's skin?
Yes — Mika uses only professional, skin-safe face paints from trusted brands including Kryolan, Diamond FX, TAG, Mehron, Face Paints Australia and Fusion Body Art. All paints are water-based, hypoallergenic, and fully compliant with EU cosmetics regulations.
Is there a travel fee?
A travel fee of £10–£30 applies depending on distance — always confirmed at time of booking.
How far in advance should I book?
Weekend slots — especially for birthday parties — can book up months in advance, particularly in spring and summer. We recommend booking as early as possible to avoid disappointment.

What Our Customers Say

“Mika was absolutely brilliant at my son's 4th birthday party! Communication beforehand was great, and the team arrived early to set up. Every child was thrilled with their designs. Would highly recommend!”

“Absolutely amazing! The face painter was so quick but the designs were beautiful — really clean, vibrant and unique. The kids were buzzing because she had styles none of them had seen at other parties. Such a lovely vibe, super friendly with the children, and honestly made the party feel that bit more magical. Would 100% recommend.”

“Mika was exceptional at my child's birthday party. She decorated the faces of 43 children at lightning speed — and all of them looked brilliant and were made to feel special. I would highly recommend Mika to anyone.”
