How to Make DIY Shaving Cream Bath Paint

Making DIY shaving cream bath paint is a quick and simple process that requires only a few household ingredients. Here is a basic recipe to get started:

Ingredients:

Note: It’s important to supervise children while using this product to avoid any accidental ingestions or eye irritation. Also, make sure to check the ingredients of the shaving cream you use to ensure it is safe for children’s skin.

How to Prevent Staining

While shaving cream bath paint is a fun and safe activity, it can sometimes leave behind stains on the tub or tiles. Here are some tips to prevent staining:

  1. Use white, non-gel shaving cream. Some colored or scented shaving creams may contain ingredients that can cause staining.
  2. Avoid using dark food coloring. Darker colors, such as blue or purple, are more likely to cause staining than lighter colors like pink or yellow.
  3. Rinse the tub immediately after use. The longer the shaving cream paint sits, the harder it will be to remove. Rinse the tub thoroughly with water to remove as much of the paint as possible.
  4. Use a mild cleanser. If there are any remaining stains, a gentle cleanser such as baking soda or white vinegar can help remove them. Simply apply a small amount to a damp cloth and rub gently on the stained area.
  5. Avoid using abrasive sponges or brushes. Scrubbing with rough materials can cause scratches that may trap the stain and make it harder to remove.

By following these tips, you can help prevent staining and keep your tub looking clean and fresh after every bath paint session.
