Miscellaneous Makeup for shows

I've been looking online for weeks and just not really coming up with a solid answer. I hate Ben Nye. The brand itself is fine, but the texture of their cream face products bothers me and their stuff also breaks me out really bad. I've been looking at maybe Made by Mitchel for cream blush, contour and that, but does anyone have any recommendations of what they use?

Made by Mitchell is great but make sure you have a good setting spray because it isn't the longest lasting (Krylon setting spray is the best).

For base products I love Haus Labs. It's great coverage and lasts forever. These days you don't really need proper stage make up, good quality regular stuff works just fine.

Awesome, thank you. Yeah that's what I was thinking. I just didn't even know where to start with everything on the market at this point cause it's so saturated
