COSHH Assessment for Face Painters - Completed for Your Business

The cosmetic products used in professional face painting - face paints, body glitters, cosmetic adhesives, and finishing sprays - contain chemical ingredients that fall under COSHH regulations. Synthetic dyes, preservatives, fragrances, and adhesive compounds in face painting products present skin sensitisation and allergic reaction risks with regular professional exposure. || For a face painter, chemical exposure occurs through extensive skin contact during application throughout the working day. The fact that the products are applied to clients' skin rather than the practitioner's own skin does not remove the COSHH obligation on the practitioner - the exposure to the practitioner from handling these products all day is what the assessment covers. || A COSHH assessment needs to cover every face paint and cosmetic product in regular use, addressing the specific chemical ingredients of concern and the controls in place.

The professional face painting industry has historically had very low compliance documentation rates. The regular application of cosmetic chemical products all day creates a genuine occupational health risk that needs formal assessment. CompliantDocs generates your assessment from the products you tell us you use.
