Frequently asked Questions about MEDEA Body-Art
Q: How long does a
Temporary Tattoo last?
A: Up to five days depending on the skin type, how well you take
care of it, and where the tattoo is applied on the body.
Q: What do I have
to do to take care of my Tattoo?
A: Apply Medea Setting Powder as many times a day as possible
and avoid Lotions, Oils, and Soaps on or very near the Tattooed
area.
Q: Can I use any
Powder?
A: Best results are achieved when using only Medea Setting
Powder, because many powders contain Mineral Oil, emollients,
and/or perfumes. All of these things will cause the colors to
fade faster. Medea Setting Powder comes in a 2oz size that is
ideal for retail sales to salon tattoo customers.
Q: What is in the
Paint?
A: Hand painted Tattoos begin with a Black or Henna Brown Ink
Outline on a Transfer Sheet. Once transferred to the skin they
are colored in with FDA approved Alcohol Based Make-up paints.
Q: What about the
Airbrush Paint?
A: Medea Airbrush Body-Art Paints are also a FDA approved
Alcohol based Make-up, formulated with a thinner consistency for
spraying through the Airbrush.
Q: Can I use
Nail-Art Paint for body or Body-Art Paints for nails?
A: No. Nail-Art paint is a water base formulation that cleans
off of the skin quickly. Body paint is a semi permanent Alcohol
based Make-up for use on the skin.
Q: Which body
paint lasts longer? Airbrush or Hand paint?
A: Both paints wear comparably. How well a design lasts depends
on the customer’s skin type, where it is applied on the body,
and how well they take care of their Tattoo. (See “Business
Handbook” under “Caring for Body-Art” section.
Q: What is the
correct way to clean Body-Art paint out of the airbrush?
A: Body-Art paint should be cleaned out of the airbrush with
Airbrush Cleaner ONLY. IMPORTANT: Do not clean out with water.
Spray cleaner through airbrush and clean out paint cup with a
clean sable brush. Avoid cleaning with cotton swabs, as the
fibers may become lodged in the nozzle.
Q: Can I use my
Nail Airbrush to do Body-Art?
A: To get started you could use your Nail-Art Airbrush, however
you would eventually want to purchase the Eclipse Body-Art Brush
for convenience and enhanced performance. The wider spray
pattern covers the larger area much faster and easier than the
Nail-Art Brush. Also, because of the wider nozzle, clogging the
eclipse is virtually impossible. The Professional Add on system
is perfect for those who already own equipment, and are looking
to add Body-Art to their salon menu. It is the most economical
way to get all of the products needed to get started, including
the Eclipse Airbrush.
Q: How much do I
charge my salon customer?
A: We recommend a charge of $5 and $7 a design. An additional $
1 to $ 2 per color may be added to the charge.
Q: Can a Temporary
Tattoo be touched up after it starts to fade?
A: Airbrushed and hand painted body art may be easily touched up
for extended wear.
