White Face & Body Makeup

[osbornc01]

Since we are approaching Halloween, I was hoping some of you lovely individuals would have a recommendation for a good white face and body makeup. I'm sure we are all aware that the white makeup sold at Halloween specialty stores are less than wonderful to work with.

I don't just want an extremely pale foundation. I'm looking for white as paper. Maybe some of you use white makeup for cosplay purposes?

Ideally, I'd like a liquid formula as opposed to cream or powder as I find those to be a bit easier for me to work with. However, if there is a cream or powder formula that is your go to, I'll give it a shot.

I really appreciate any help you can give.

Shellygrrl - Have you personally used the product before? Or do you know anyone who has?

I haven't. You may find this video helpful, though (it talks about the foundation in general, not the white one specifically). http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MHRzC1YV9GY It tends to be a favourite MAC foundation for a lot of people.

I would also love more info on these kind of products. I personally have a water activated cake that works horribly patchy and a white paint stick (not MAC) that is very greasy and there is no way of setting and my skin seems to absorb!!
