Body paint using toner particles

A method for applying a washable non-toxic body paint comprising:

• providing the washable non-toxic body paint of core/shell toner particles having a size of from 4.0 μm to 30 μm,
• wherein the core comprises a colorant, a crystalline polyester resin, and an amorphous polyester resin, the shell comprises a polyester resin;
• and an alcohol free medium that is FDA approved and encapsulates the toner particles within the body paint,
• wherein the crystalline polyester resin is present in an amount of between about 1 weight percent to about 25 weight percent of the total weight of the toner particles, and the amorphous polyester resin is present in an amount of between about 20 weight percent to about 60 weight percent by total weight of the toner particles,
• wherein the amorphous polyester resin has an average weight molecular weight of from about 8,000 to about 300,000, and the amorphous polyester resin comprises of a combination of low weight average molecular weight amorphous polyester resin and high weight average molecular weight amorphous polyester resin,
• wherein the low weight average molecular weight amorphous polyester resin is present in an amount of from about 10 weight percent to about 50 weight percent by weight of the toner, and the high weight average molecular weight amorphous polyester resin is present in an amount of from about 20 weight percent to about 50 weight percent by weight of the toner;
• and
• applying the body paint on a surface of the skin.

• wherein the shell comprises a polyester resin;
• and
• wherein the alcohol free medium is FDA approved and encapsulates the toner particles within the body paint, and wherein a weight percent of the alcohol-free medium is from 10 to 80 of the body paint.
