I think it depends on who you are insured with. Towergate offers insurance for glitter tattoos, face painting and henna without any formal qualifications. I think it is offered under their 'special entertainments insurance'.

Do you need a formal qualification for glitter tattoos if you are insured with the guild?

The Guild require you to hold a spray tanning certificate.

What has spray tanning got to do with glitter tattoos?

What has spray tanning got to do with glitter tattoos?

just what i was thinking

I don't think it's so much the spray tanning itself- I've read on other threads about glitter tattoos that you need some kind of training that involves working with the skin, and knowledge of the skin before you can be insured for any treatments on the body.
Obviously with a spray tanning certificate, this is one type of qualification where you must cover some of this theory, and would then have the appropriate knowledge for glitter tattoos

Thankyou everyone for the replies, much appriciated, i will check with the insurance companies and i really want to get a course done aswell

I don't think a course is necessary for glitter tattoos if you have a beauty qualification. The application is easy, so it's really just knowing the health/safety aspect.

If you still want to do a course - these really are the best.

I phoned my insurance yesterday to ask this question and they also said because I have a spray tan certificate that I would be covered. I'm with ABT x

As i am in Germany my insurance is with Allianz and face painting and glitter tattoos come under cosmetic/non perminent on my insurance, as long as we dont retail any of the products we are covered.

 

[Nail Delights]

Thank you, we do plan retail the products as well we are looking to do the applications at shows to show off what the products can do, so i need to be covered, i am looking at all courses available and we will check with a few companies aswell thankyou everyone for your help
