How To Choose Theatrical Makeup Supplies

By John Miller


Acting alone cannot make a show spectacular. There are a lot of other things that need to be put in place. For example, the stage has to be lit properly, all the props must be arranged in a semantic way and most importantly the characters must be blended physically with their role. The best way to bring out visual effects of a character is through using theatrical makeup supplies. Below are a few tips on how to select them without any hustles.

To begin with, it is important that you buy cosmetics from well-known brands. You should not go not try to save a dime by purchasing items made by a local vendor. They are cheap, but cheap is always expensive. Sourcing your materials from a worldwide brand will only be ensuring that you get quality materials that will not disappoint you during the shows.

You also need to make sure that you purchase genuine products. There are a lot of dealers selling counterfeit cosmetics out there. Most of this dealers package their products like those from reputable brands but always sells them at every low prices. You need to look out for such vendors and avoid them completely. Always look for small details to determine whether the products are genuine or not.

You also need to do a bit of research on what you intend to buy. The internet always provides the best avenues for doing researches on products and gathering information. Also apart from google searches, there are forums where you can ask for recommendations from other artists. These recommendations will come in handy when you are looking for virtuous and reliable supplier.

Experience is also a big factor to consider. Sourcing your things from an experienced dealer will not be the same as purchasing the same thing from an inexperienced dealer. An experienced dealer will help you pick the best products by giving you suggestions based on his experience. On the other hand, an inexperienced dealer has no knowledge to suggest any product to you and if he does so, he will be making that suggestion based on assumption.

Always have a budget. Stage cosmetics vary in prices. They also require fine details that you will probably forget. A budget allows you to plan your finances and makes sure that you use the resources you effectively. You should always have a rough idea of product prices when you are sourcing for your cosmetic. Ensure that you factor in all the cosmetics you need to avoid last minute makeovers.

After getting all other factors right, you also need to understand how these cosmetics are used. It is one thing to purchase a product you know how to use and it is another thing to purchase a product you do not know how to use. Cosmetics are used to create effects that physically speaks more about a character. You need to learn how to make fake scars, burns, bruises and other visual effects if you want to be a pro when purchasing these products.

Lastly, ensure that you get products worth your money and time by following above tips to the latter. Also, consider choosing a supplier who delivers products to your doorstep without involving third parties. This will reduce chances of your purchases delaying.
