At the moment, not much is known about the virus that causes COVID-19 but if makeup is used on different people, the following measures are recommended:
Spray the makeup surface after each individual use (not too much) with ethanol or isopropanol, both 70% or more. The liquid can be put into a bottle with a spray bottle. Both liquids kill the virus immediately and evaporate quickly, so makeup can be quickly reused or take a small amount of makeup from the bottle with a disinfected spatula and place it on a disinfected surface (small paddle, flat plate, on any case, a surface that is easy to disinfect). Before you start painting, make sure you get all the colors you need. After use, clean the spatula and the pan with clean soapy water and disinfect with ethanol or isopropanol, both 70% or more.
Replace brushes after each individual use with clean, sanitized brushes. Clean brushes after using with soap, rinse with clean tap water, wipe dry with a clean (disposable) cloth. Disinfect by immersing it in 70% or more ethanol. Let it air dry horizontally.
Replace the sponges after each individual use with clean (new) sponges. After a sponge has contacted the skin, do not use it again in makeup. Then take a clean sponge. After use, wash the sponges in the washing machine at 60 ° C with a mild detergent. Let air dry completely.
Be sure to work with a container of clean, disinfected water. After each individual use, rinse the water container with clean water and disinfect it with a cloth soaked in ethanol or isopropanol, both 70% or more.
Clean the Superstar Aqua Face and Body Paint after use with a clean sponge soaked in clean water. Squeeze the sponge well before using. Use a clean (new) sponge for each color. Let the makeup air dry, spray the surface (not too much) of the makeup with ethanol or isopropanol, both 70% or more. Clean the makeup packaging with a cleaning cloth moistened with the disinfectant fluids mentioned above or soapy water. Do not replace the cap until the makeup has dried.

Superstar advises to use personal protective equipment. If other measures are applied by the government or the ministry of health, these tips should always be followed.

If a customer shows symptoms or has complaints, they will not be able to paint their face. If you decide to take further action, you can use the tips on personal protective equipment as a guide.
