Does anyone have an issue with sweating your bindi and makeup off while dancing - Cuz I do!! Any tips to keeping your composure while dancing would be much appreciated - I hate going on looking lovely and coming off stage looking like a hot tranny mess. Thanks!!

Tue, September 15, 2009 - 6:50 PMlol i am so stealing "hot tranny mess" & making it my new fav phrase! i sweat quite a bit during performances myself. i use surgical adhesive (you can find it at drug stores) and it helps a LOT for keeping that little bugger on. Sadly not much to be done about the actual sweat though if you have breaks between numbers just bring a towel to pat off with. to set my make up i sometimes spray my hair spray over my face (keep your eyes shut & keep 'em shut & let it dry for a min or two) & that does help. honestly people in the audience probably aren't close enough to tell anyways. -

It's a LOT safer (esp for your eyes) to use a product like Ben Bye's Final Seal, that it tested for use on your face, rather than using hairspray on your face. Your eyesight is not worth it - and closing your eyes does not seal them shut. -

Wed, September 16, 2009 - 11:37 AMi have to second the ben nye final seal stuff. it is excellent. pretty much any product by ben nye gets two thumbs up and a big "HELL YEAH!" from me. :) ben nye also has a great loose powder that you can apply right before final seal and it works nicely if you're a sweaty girl (take it from me - i am a very sweaty-headed hungarian...)
in addition to hairspray being no good for your eyes, it clogs your pores in a very yukky way. combined with the makeup and sweat it is a really good recipe for yukko sticky gross complexion issues. i have learned this from experience. -
