Topic: Face Paint

[Gotham Ranger]

Halloween is here and I wanna paint my face. With long hair, grease paint gets kind of annoying because the hair sticks to the paint. Being a wrestling fan, I've seen alot of guys with longer hair and face paint not have that problem. So to get right to it..

What kind of face paint is he using in this video? Water based?

[Quickman]

It's a plastic-based paint, prolly some type of acrylic-based face paint.  You'd be able to get that stuff either online or from a specialty shop.

Hmm, everything I've seen says acrylic/plastic is a no no for face painting, yet that dudes done it for 23 years.

Well, not actual acrylics.  There is a type of paint that's non-greasy, I just forget what it is.  I think it's a plastic-based paint, but I'm not entirely sure.  There are different types of face paint out there, the professional stuff is the type that's non-greasy.

Use house paint.

And google is being a pain. Only thing I'm getting is water based and grease paint

Well, that site lead me to the direction of finding out that talcum powder helps dry out grease paint, which is helpful
