I won't take credit for this one 'coz it's Billy B's technique but if you are a particularly sweaty dancer whose makeup tends to run down more annoyingly than a loose skirt, apply Milk of Magnesia as a makeup primer.

I applied this to dancers' faces at a recent Philly Fringe Festival dance theater performance. Billy B uses this on Beyonce for her concerts.

Doesn't have to be flavored, but apply it quickly and with a sponge or else it will dry white and crusty. It provides a really matte finish. Try it for a photo shoot, if you get sweaty under the lights.

That is all...

Wow! Thank you for the tip. I am a serious sweater during performances.
