FAQ from Foam Invasion: 

Clothing

We recommend all the guests to wear lightweight, comfortable clothing like a t-shirt and shorts or a swimsuit. When you think about what to wear to a foam party, ask yourself, "what would I wear to a summer pool party?" A lot of the same rules apply.

You want to wear clothes that…
• Are okay to get wet
• Are comfortable
• Are potentially quick drying

What you don't want to wear to a foam party is…
• Anything made of suede or other non-water-friendly material
• Fancy clothes that you don't want to get wet

Again, simple is best. Opt for a swimsuit or a lightweight t-shirt and shorts, and you will be good to go.

 
Does A Foam Party Ruin Your Clothes?
The short answer is - NO! At least our foam parties don't, as we use a high-quality foam solution.

Footwear
We recommend wearing comfortable shoes for a foam party that you don't mind getting wet, like some old sneakers/tennis shoes. You'd like your shoes to have a bit of traction to make it easier to walk in the foam. If you'd like some extra protection, you can even opt for some water shoes or waterproof boots, but these often aren't necessary.

It is also not uncommon to be barefoot white playing in the foam. If you'd like to let your feet free, you are more than welcome to do so!

What Should I Bring To A Foam Party?
• Towel
• Sunscreen
• A change of clothes

• Goggles (optional)

Have questions or concerns about our foam? No problem!
We use only the highest quality solution for our foam. It’s bio-degradable, non-staining, non-toxic, and hypoallergenic! It’s also safe for babies, pets, & the environment including lawns and gardens.

Our foam is made up of Sodium Lauryl Sulfate, Glycerol & Water. These are also the main ingredients used in things like shampoo, dish soap, and even toothpaste, but without the additional chemicals and perfumes.

Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (SLS), a cleaning agent and surfactant, is an ingredient in many personal care and cleaning products. SLS is derived from natural sources like coconut and palm kernel oil.

Multiple scientific bodies have reviewed SLS as an ingredient in personal care and cleaning products and determined its typical use in these applications in these applications to be safe for both consumers and the environment.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) includes SLS on its list of multipurpose additives allowed as a direct food additive.

Glycerol, sometimes referred to as glycerin, is sugar alcohol widely used in a variety of personal care products, including toothpaste, hair conditioner, cosmetics, and moisturizers. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is the primary regulator of over-the-counter products and food packaging materials. FDA has approved glycerol for use as an additive to food packaging materials. Glycerol also has been approved for use in skincare products. FDA has placed glycerol on its Generally Recognized as Safe List.
