I need quick stage make-up remover!?

Hi guys,


Here's the deal I'm in a community theater production of Snowwhite and the Seven Dwarfs and we open next week and go through till October somthing but the problem is that one of the days where we're doing three show, 10:30, 1:00, and 3:00, is also the day of my HOMECOMING DANCE! The shows about three hours long including intermisson so I've execpted the fact that I'm gonna have to mostly get ready at the theater if I want to be home when my date comes to picks me up. Some of my gal pals in the cast said they would do my hair for me but my make up is the problem. I'm the Walking Talking Magic Mirror so I'm gonna have lot's of heavy goffy make up that I'm gonna need to take of right after curtin call so I can put on my dance make up. Dose anyone know somthing that is


a) a portable make up remove (like wipes in a contaner)


b) can do a through but fast job on heavy make up


c) is gentle enough to use on someone with sensitive skin!





Thank You

Neutrogena makes a pre-moistened makeup removing wipes (can't remember the exact name). You can find them in any drug store, in with the facial care products. I have used them to remove stage and opera makeup. I have never had any problems with them. They are fast and work well.

You cannot find a better Theatrical Makeup remover.





One Caveat: after you wipe it off use an Astringent such as Witch Hazel, otherwise it will give your face a rather oily sheen that can take hours to wipe off.





Or maybe it is just my face.





In any case: Alboline. You can find it at Walgreens or Sav-On or your nearest drugstore in the skincare aisle. It is a white jar with a blue lid.
Reply:Baby wipes. I kid you not.
Reply:unfortunetely you will need some water and some sort of sponge, but Noxema works really well. I have used in between scenes when i change charaters and I have only 2 minutes to remove and reapply my makeup... so that is my suggestion. Good Luck and have fun at homecoming!
Reply:See if you can find Abalone Cream, it is an excellent makeup remover. Or use cold cream, then cleanse with sensitive skin Sea Breeze. Lots of luck, Doc
Reply:Neutragena has some really good products. Maybe you caould ask your date to pick you up from the theatre. That way you have more time.
Reply:A jar of coconut oil - the kind that's hardened. A little goes a long ways and it's the quickest ever, cheapest, and will last you forever.
Reply:Ben Nye makes some time of remover. I think you can get anywhere Ben Nye stuff is sold. It's like in a 4oz bottle but a little goes a long way, but works really well. It's kinda expensive but worth it, just put it on a cotton make-up pad and wipe away.





p.s. if you don't know a place that sells it then ask one of your directors one of them should know where to get some. Break a leg!
