It really depends on what kind of paints, the brands used at these parties. A study by The Campaign For Safe Cosmetics found that children’s face paints had unsafe levels of lead and heavy metals. Experts agree that while there is no safe level of lead exposure for children, it can cause sensitivities and skin rashes later in life, even without subsequent exposures.
