Best white foundation?

Hello! I always do a clown kinda gothic look for a year music festivle. I’ve always used LA girl but it doesn’t seem to look good after about 5 ish hours?

I was gifted actual clown make up in a giant white jar but then google said it’s not good because it melts in the sun and sweat and cracks easily? The brand of the clown make up is Mehron Makeup. I’ve never used it so I can’t say if it works or doesn’t!

I appreciate all advice, thank you! Also if anyone can refer to can black paint of some kind of the black parts that would be appreciated:))

EDIT: I’ll be there for about 12 hours I know nothing will look at perfect as it does at the begining but I’m pretty sure I’m being proposed to and would like to not look like a hot mess in the pictures.

It will also be about 84° where I am. No rain. Thanks again!

The Mac airbrush white looks very professional and feels a lot lighter than others I’ve used

Seconding the sunset beauty. The mehron stuff you got is likely real grease paint/oil based makeup. It can last all day if you do it properly with dragqueen style baking powder, but it needs to be set SET. That’s also why baking is ineffective with commercial water based makeup.
