how do KISS keep their makeup on...

How do KISS keep their makeup on while performing?

I was watching a vid yesterday and this question just popped into my head.

How the hell do they keep the make up on their face, without it melting under stage lights/moving around the stage/drumming etc.
Do they touch up off stage, or is it specially designed for them?

Makeup melts off me on mildly hot days sigh


i know this will probably get moved to Non Music, but thought it was more a make up ? and not a music ? so i would ask it here.
seems that i was busy doing something close to nothing, but different than the day before music beret

More surface area.

Fuck the funk - it's time to ditch the worn-out Vegas horns fills, pick up the geee-tar and finally ROCK THE MUTHA-FUCKER!! He hinted at this on Chaos, now it's time to step up and fully DELIVER!!

Makeup has advanced over the years. Back in their early day, after Gene did his blood spewing, fire spitting routines on stage, the bottom half of his face was bare from makeup. As time progressed, and make ups got better, so did the "staying power" of their made up faces. The makeup they use isn't what you're getting at WalGreens or even Macy's or Sephora.

Remember, these guys have been doing their makeup for years, themselves, not by someone else. They have it down to a science and can do it in record time, and probably in their sleep.

It's STAGE MAKE-UP that professionals use. you can probably Google Theatrical makeup to find out.
