About Our Face Gems
Elevate your look with the glittering sophistication of Mika's professional face gems service. Using high-quality adhesive rhinestones, flatback crystals, and decorative gems applied with skin-safe cosmetic glue, this service delivers an instant dose of glamour that is breathtaking in person and absolutely luminous in photographs. Whether you're going for subtle under-eye sparkle or a full-on editorial crystal installation, Mika's artistry ensures every gem placement is purposeful, precise, and truly stunning. Face gems have become one of the most sought-after beauty trends in recent years, appearing on festival stages, fashion runways, and at the most stylish weddings and parties. Mika stays ahead of the trend with a constantly updated collection of gems, crystals, pearls, and specialty shapes — from classic clear rhinestones and iridescent AB crystals to coloured gemstones, stars, hearts, and bespoke shapes for themed events. Each face gem design is entirely bespoke, created in consultation with the guest to match their outfit, the event's aesthetic, and their personal style. Quick application options — ideal for large groups — include simple liner-style gem placements and scattered crystal looks. For more elaborate editorial pieces, additional time can be scheduled. All adhesives used are cosmetic-grade, specifically formulated for use on facial skin, and are removed easily and safely with a specialist remover or warm oil. Mika holds £10M BAPIA public liability insurance and is fully trained in the safe application and removal of all products. Face gems are a brilliant addition to any event — bookable as a standalone service or in combination with face painting or a glitter bar for a complete beauty experience.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long do face gems stay on?

How are face gems removed?
Face gems are removed easily and painlessly using warm water, a gentle oil cleanser, or a specialist adhesive remover. Mika can advise on removal at the end of your session.
Can face gems be applied to children?
Yes, with parental consent. Mika uses only gentle, cosmetic-grade adhesives and can offer age-appropriate gem designs for younger clients.
Do you travel to events for face gem applications?

What Our Customers Say
“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.”
