PRODUCT CARE
Please protect the fabric petals and stones in hair accessories by covering before spraying your hair with hairspray. Please avoid getting hairspray and makeup on your earrings, very heavy makeup can transfer on to the fabric. 
 If your piece needs post party cleaning there are a few things you can do…
If your make up was oil based you will need a solvent such as dry cleaning fluid, your dry cleaner may be able to help you. Alternatively you could try acetone or pure alcohol. As long as the petals don’t get very wet they will be fine. Use a cotton bud to apply and try and dab rather than rub. Alternatively, many make up artist use baby wipes or a makeup removal wipes to get makeup out of fabric. 
Our pieces are delicate handmade items and should be treated with care and love.
