TAG Face Paint and Awen SFX products go to competition!

We are jazzed! We took the best and brightest of our TAG face paint..including royal blue and purple...red, yellow, copper, light blue, pearl black -- heck we took all of them -- to the United States biggest body painting competition ever! and they preformed with flying colors !! Not only that but *lots* of artists arranged for their models to be wearing our competition grade nipple covers and thong sets. These gems are *the* thing to have for that flawless look to your competition piece -- long gone are the days where you had to paint over underclothes or blend in panty lines. With the stick-on thongs your art work is *seamless* and ready for professional close ups!

TAG Face & Body Paint can handle the heat

And we mean that! Not only was TAG up to covering the RollerGirls in an awareness campaign but the heat soared to the mid-90s. This Wiser inspired graffiti look is done in TAG golden orange, yellow and black and the 'quickie' roses and hearts are done with the TAG Berry split cake

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE                        
                                     MEET TAG; THE NEW KID ON THE BLOCK
Tallahassee, FL. March 2011— Karen Mercer of www.FacePaintShop.com knew that she wanted to bring in a line of professional face painting supplies that could stand up to the challenges of Tallahassee’s  weather when she moved to Florida several months ago. “But even after two years so many painters aren’t aware of TAG or what it can do for them.” To help put a ‘name to the face’  Mercer has asked the TAG crew to sketch up a little biography of the company.

WHEN did you start, WHY did you open?
We started TAG approx 2 years ago.  The only paints available to us as face painters in Australia at the time were DFX and Wolfe.  These paints were shipped from China to either the US or the Netherlands then back to Australia, which made the paints very expensive to purchase. We needed to find a way to source paints at reasonable prices.
TAG was born!

Are you working party entertainers or is someone in the company? 
Gaenor White one of our directors is a full time face painter and face painting teacher.
I paint on occasion when a male presence is needed, my wife, Katherine does glitter tattoos at festivals.
Linda and Charlie White are working face and body painters. They both enter most body painting competitions around Australia.  We are all working artists and the entire company is a ‘family affair’
 Everybody involved with TAG has been and still is part of the facepainting community here in Australia.

Is it true the paint is made in the same factory alongside wolfe and diamond?
Yes. TAG uses FDA approved pigments in all its regular and pearl colors.

TAG stands for children’s initials, right?
 Right, my children  (Joe and Katherine) Tulani and the twins, Amelia and Grant.

 Do you have a mission statement?
 I would say that our aim is to try and provide reasonably priced, quality products and to continue to evolve alongside the professional face painting community. 
We love face and body painting!!


Karen Mercer, founding artist of ww.FacePaintShop.com, is committed to bringing you the finest face and body painting products. Being a penny-pinching, coupon user herself you’ll never find inflated prices at the FacePaintShop.com, we never try and trick you by screaming ‘free shipping’ on overpriced product.

Dragon Boy from La Fete

Athena from lafayettefacepainter.com did this rockin' dragon body paint at La Fete over the weekend -- using ALL TAG face and body paint...the best part? when he moved his shoulders the dragon 'breathed'

La Fete Fairy

Just wanted to share our friend Jules work from La Fete. Jules, who came in third in the world body painting competition last year for special effects, used the www.FacePaintShop.com foam latex thong on her model.
You can see more of her work on her Facebook site http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=1001516173

North American Body Painting Championship

Dallas hosted the most recent NABPC where world class body painters came together for a fast and furious time of design and painting. Our friend Sue from www.TheOtherCheek.com used our Body Painting Thong in her competition piece...we think this is just stunning! Way to go Sue!!

Remember if you've got body painting to do...we've got you covered! (punny, right?)

TAG Pearls VS Interfrenze

so we were just asked today by our good friend Alana in California (www.YoubecomeArt.com) what the difference between the new TAG pearls and Krolans Interfrenze was...aside from the price!

So have two to show you with the closet Interfrenze we could get. The first one is the TAG lilac next to the Mozart Pink. The TAG paint is a solid coverage light pinky/purple with slight silver undertones. The Mozart pink really is a rockin' color with iridescent purple tones-- but it went on a little sheer for our taste. The TAG lime is a opaque light green which is more pastel than electric with gold undertones. The Interfreneze product is called silver green and does have a silver cast -- so while these colors werent directly comprable we wanted to give you a side by side look...what do YOU think?
