I've tried a lot of different clown makeup over the years but most of it seems to run or clump.

quality clown makeup? The look is definitely achievable with the products listed above. As with most things. It is the application that is more important than the product.

Although... It would be pretty wild to see if they did the make-up from back in the day when he had the Bleached Flat-top and the real crazy face paint. Back in the WCW days big_smile

Good products get good results.... most halloween or craft store stuff is NOT going to give a good result.

all of products I've mentioned are high quality... are you setting your make-up??? that will help with the clumping and running...

you have to set the makeup with powder, preferably patting it on with a powder puff. afterward, you take a damp towel and pat it to remove excess.

I'd look at a water activated product like Wolfe FX.
Hydrosponge apply the white base.
Let it dry.
Hand paint the black.
You'll have to experiment with the black... too wet or too dry will give you problems. Have to find the juuuuust right.

No... if done properly, with a dry base and the proper consistency black on a well paletted brush.

Just look at all the tons of facepainters out there layering black - or white - over painted base colors.

Think water color. Wet-on-wet gives one result. Wet-on-dry gives another.

From what I understand, they use acrylic paint.  Google that and see if you can find anything worthwhile.  A friend was a big fan of "the crow" back in the day and I've seen some good results with it.

You can make it not run, but you have to powder the living daylights out of it; press it in, powder it again, press it in (with a damp cloth or damp paper towel) & powder it some more.
