Frequently Asked Questions

Can't find the answer to your question below? Check out our FAQ-page, here you can also find frequently asked questions about specific color pigments. 

Are these paints safe for children? 
The Natural Earth Paint is water-based and super easy to mix up and clean up with water. Used by adults and children for fun, easy crafts and art projects. We recommend this paint for anyone that wants a quick, easy, non-toxic and natural paint to create with easy clean up with water. The recipe includes only 3 natural ingredients, and all colors are made from natural earth, instead of synthetic, pigments, which are tested and free of toxic heavy metals.

How long do they last / are they permanent? 
It will gradually wear away if left in the elements (rain) because it's not waterproof. It won't technically fade but will just wear off eventually. However, if painted on a wall or painting, they will last indefinitely. 

Why should I mix my own paint when I can buy paint pre-made? 

We believe that the extra step of mixing your own paint is well worth the peace of mind of knowing you are using the safest and most sustainable paint on the market. Most pre-made paints on the market contain a variety of toxic chemical stabilizers, petrochemicals, fillers, and preservatives. Natural pigments provide an unsurpassed luminosity, depth of color, UV resistance, humidity resistance, and archival qualities. As soon as you have a liquid paint you need a preservative to keep it from going bad on the shelf - by mixing your own, there's no need for preservatives. Conventional paints are the "fast food" approach that the mainstream paint industry thinks consumers demand, but we believe our customers deserve better.

How long does the paint last after mixed? 
The children’s paints are best used fresh. We recommend that you only mix as much as you need for one painting session, but the paints will stay good for several weeks if kept in an air tight container and refrigerated.

Can I dilute it with water? 
The children's earth paint can be diluted with water as much as you want. It becomes more and more like watercolor as you dilute it.

Can I mix secondary colors from the Natural Earth Paint primaries? 
The 9 colors we offer will not create color spectrum / primary colors that can be mixed to create secondary and tertiary colors. They are earth pigments, made of the earth and are all slightly earth toned. There's no way to mix a true purple with the earth red (venetian red) and blue and no way to mix a true color spectrum green with the earth yellow (yellow ocher) and blue (ultramarine blue). 

What age are the Natural Earth Paints suitable for? 
Our Natural Earth Paints are suitable for all ages 3+

Is the paint edible / food safe? 
Our paints are not intended for consumption. However, our Natural Egg Dye Kits are FDA approved for use in food! Our paints are great to use on children's toys and can be sealed with our Natural Varnish or Natural Acrylic Medium, but care should be taken to limit exposure in one's mouth.

What is the best way to clean up Natural Earth Paint?
Our Natural Earth Paints wash off skin and other surfaces very easily with soap and water. Some pigments are more staining than others. Wash any stained areas multiple times until clean.

Can I use your Natural Earth Paints as Face Paint?
Our Natural Face Paints are made with cosmetic-grade pigments and organic ingredients and are perfect for any kind of face / body painting. However, the children's Natural Earth Paint contains gum arabic and cornstarch, which are safe ingredients but can be drying or irritating to some individuals skin with prolonged contact. However, many people report to us that they use the Natural Earth Paint as face paint. We recommend using our Natural Face Paints instead because they’ve been specifically formulated to nourish the skin while providing vibrant, skin-safe color.
