INVISIBLE UV Face & Body Paint

£6.99 – £44.99

STARGLOW Invisible (UV Revealing) Face and Body Paint. Suitable for use on all skin types and colours. British made.

STARGLOW Professional grade, CLEAR UV face and body paint fluoresces brightly under UV light yet remains invisible in ordinary light.

How to use

Apply with a make-up sponge, face paint sponge, cosmetic sponge-tip brush or a finger.

But not too much! A little goes a long, long way.

Apply in single thin coats and be sure to leave a few moments to dry on the skin before reapplying.

Please Note: If the coating is too thick the paint will remain visible in its un-coloured state.

One dry the paint should be invisible in normal light and only fluoresce in colour under UV Blacklight.

Please Note: The brightness and depth of colour is entirely dependent on the strength and quality of UV light it is exposed to.

TIP:  It would be sensible to have a suitable UV light available to ‘see’ the effect as you apply it.

Once the fun is done. Wash-off with soap and water.

If applying by finger, ensure you wash your hands properly first and keep away from the eyes!

 

UV Face Paint and UV Light:

This paint is not suited for use with cheap, low-quality UV LED based lights.

Best results are obtained with mains powered UV Tube or UV Canon / UV Flood lights operating at 365nm.

Unlike ordinary UV Face and body paint which is brightly coloured and visible in normal light as well as UV light. Invisible (Clear) UV paint is totally dependent on the UV light source for both it’s brightness (intensity) and colour depth. Its ability to sudden appear ‘reveal’ itself under UV light is the special effect this paint is famous for. Its the colour thats invisible. Not the paint.

However, if the UV light source is weak, then it will only produce a weak glow i.e. if you move directly away for the light source the glow will fade as the light source energy diminishes.  If the UV light source is emitting the wrong frequency (very common with cheap UV LED lights) then the visible UV colour will be affected and may appear washed-out. For example, a UV RED would be a deep, rich red under a professional UV light, but may appear like a ‘washed out’ or pink under cheap UV lights.

UV lights are not like normal visible lights, as they have a relatively short range.  For example, a low energy UV bulb will only have an effective range of up to 2m in any direction and just like a single candle, it is unable to UV-illuminate an entire room. The further away you get from the bulb the weaker the UV light becomes, so at a 2m distance, the UV light it is relatively weak and ineffective.

See ‘About UV Light‘ tab for more about this.

About UV Light

There is much mis-information online about UV light (Blacklight) we’ll clear up a few main points here…

Is brighter really better?

No.  Absolutely not.  UV is invisible to the human eye so ideally you should see nothing!  What you do see is visible ‘interference’ light (known as spill) and is a bi-product of poor quality inferior UV LEDs.  This bright, purple glare is not UV and only serves to illuminate the search area, actually making it harder to see the actual fluoresce you are looking for!

The UV rule of thumb is:  The brighter it is, the worse it is!

This is why our UV PRO range are made with a special UV PRO filter which removes all visible light and only lets the invisible UV light through.  This produces great, professional results.

The more LEDs the better?

Again. Absolutely not.  The greater the number of inferior (cheap) LEDs the torch has, the more visible interference light it produces and the worse the result.

Tip: Avoid any UV Torch with more than 9 LEDS.

Does frequency matter?

Yes. The frequency of UV light emitted determines the quality of results obtained.  There is a sweet-spot for UV which is between 365nm and 385nm.  However, to manufacture LEDs capable of emitting in this frequency range is far more expensive.  The cheap UV torches sold on eBay and Amazon, will use inferior quality Chinese made LEDs emitting in the range of 390 – 410nm.  At this range the UV light is a very poor quality and the visible light output is at its highest (see here for more about UV Blacklight).

GLOWTEC UV PRO Forensic Torches are made using high quality KOREAN made 365-385nm UV LEDs which peak at 380nm with a much lower visible light output. This provides the best balance of quality, performance and price with excellent value for money.

See our short video to see why –> Comparison of UV Torches

What should I expect to see?

That really depends on what it is your are looking at / looking for!

Unlike man-made fluorescent materials such as white fabric, white paper and UV paint which all fluoresce brightly under UV blacklight, natural fluorescent substances such as urine and body fluids, which whilst they do glow (fluoresce) under UV light, do not fluoresce brightly! In fact they are generally quite dim, so do not expect a supernova!

The colour shown under UV light is determined by the chemical composition of the substance, not the UV light itself.
