| About Us: Photo by Rich Johnson Photography Just Plain Crazy Face Art is run by two sisters from Northeastern PA. Between the two of us, we’re mom to 4, aunt to more than a dozen. As such, we have experience dealing with children of all ages. Both of us have volunteered with church organizations working with children. Having done crafting projects with and for children for years, adding facepainting seemed a logical step. The CrazyLadies are serious about child safety. Our "paints" are not really paint at all, but are professional quality cosmetics that have skin-safe ingredients, are hypoallergenic and are easily removed with water and mild soap. We NEVER use acrylic or latex paints and use only cosmetic grade glitter. Since 2004, we’ve been members of an online community of Face and Body Artists from around the world. From these awesome folks, we have received encouragement and ideas. We’ve learned the importance of hygienic practices and have reviewed many new products. Training, Awards & Acheivements: May 2005 - attended the Face and Body Art International Convention-Enchanted Forest in Orlando, Florida. We took classes in Henna, Tribal art, Fantasy make-up and, Special effects, conducted by 27 artists from all corners of the world.
