Thread: Body Paint

Can anyone give me more info about body paint? Specifically if it gets on a costume/clothes how to remove it?

There is a show coming to Seoul and I won't be bellydancing but I might be performing and I'm trying to plan a costume now. I was thinking my melos or something but don't know if it would come off

Do you know what type/color of body paint? Some are possible to remove and others are more difficult or impossible. Most body paints have the potential to stain costuming and clothes permanently.

Stick to water-based if you are concerned about costume stains. The more durable, theatrical varieties contain oil which means any stain will likely not come out.
Airbrush is also a possibility as silicone covers well, is durable, and once dry, should not rub onto costuming.

I have no idea. I just got an email from the organizer talking about the event. It's in the very early stages of planning but it's only 3-4 weeks away. So if I have to order something to wear (and I think from the sounds of it, I will) I need to order it now.
