Is pointless if you don't look like your character on-screen. I keep a file of particularly good makeup photos. If you're playing Columbia and you're swarthy, you'll wear paler foundation than an Irish blonde.
#MEHRON DIFFERENCE BETWEEN SETTING POWDER AND COLORSET SKIN#
Adjust the makeup as needed depending on your skin color: if your skin is chocolate brown, Riff's pallor for you might be ashen brown, not whiteface. The makeup plans here are geared primarily towards Caucasian performers because all the main characters in the film, which is my basis, are Caucasian. The makeup that works for you will depend on your skin color / tone and the lighting setup at your theater. I keep my Rocky and non-Rocky makeup separate so if I need something at the show I know it will be in my bag. People who don't usually wear makeup may need help applying it at first. I know people who can apply the water-based white-in-a-tube evenly without streaking, but I sure can't.Įveryone should buy their own makeup, boys too. If it's locked in a glass case, it's good. I don't recommend using Halloween makeup (sold at Spirit, sometimes also at costume shops). (Target) is good, and I've had good luck at Sally's Beauty Supply, especially their Beautique eyepencils, which are reasonably dark, easy on your eyelids, and keep a fairly good point. Try a few brands and see what works for you. When using nontheatrical makeup, I have (mostly) sworn off the cheap stuff. It's more expensive than the cheap stuff, and if you aren't near a good source, you have minimum orders and shipping to deal with
Stage makeup can be found in magic and theatrical shops and offers some options street makeup doesn't. It doesn't change colors every season and it's designed for what we do-being a specific color, staying put, and looking good under hot lights while the wearer jumps around. Most people start with street makeup, which is fine.
