Stage vs Everyday Makeup
Stage makeup is different from everyday makeup in that it is heavier in formulation. Max Factor cosmetics began years ago as makeup for the stars. Pancake makeup was used to create flawless skin. In order to see makeup from a distance (stage to audience), bright, intense colors and false eyelashes are necessary. Also, heavy makeup is needed so it doesn't run with perspiration. Makeup is then set with powder.
