Geishas makeupHi allI need help I started doing my new Geisha routine this weekend and I used Grmas white cake make up as my base its a water based one. The first night I put it on my skin itched a bit and red marks appeared on my top lip and cheeks and the second night my whole face started to burn. My skin is really dry and sore today. I was wondering if anyone else could recommend a better make up maybe a cream one. Thanks Diva x |

Don't ask me how I know this, but the ones I've seen used with the most success are Mehron and Snazaroo. I cannot tell you which one lasts longer or applies easier because I've never personally worn it, but I can say that the Mehron always seemed to look better once applied and it is a cream based make-up I think. I know it may not be what you're looking for, but costuming make-up is going to be the best thing.
