White face

I realize this is very basic, but what would you guys recommend as the most wear/sweat resistant way of painting someone's face white, like a mime?

I would NOT suggest wolfe for wearing all day and performing in it. Feels horrid, gets waxy looking and melts into your pores so it looks like orange peel! I tried it a couple times when I was trying to lighten up my clown make-up - big mistake.

For wearing all day - use theatrical cream (oil based) make-up. I use Ben Nye Clown White and set with baby powder. Holds up to heat and sweat well. I've worn it repeatedly for very long days - up to 22 hours one time... looked just as good at the end of the day as it did when I put it on.

It depends on what it's for. If it's for performance, use greasepaint or oil based paint, but if it's for painting children as general face painting, use water based paint... Wolfe or DFX...

"snicker"
orange peel.....

its for a performance, but we are trying to avoid grease paint because it involves aerial silk performances and we don't want the grease getting on the silk.

What about Temptu? I have similar inquiries, but no answer. I work with a few magicians/freak show guys and was wondering if maybe Temptu would do well?
