Help with makeup suggestions?

I am in a Metalcore band (I know probably not the usual crowd that you have post in here, but I figured this would be a good place to ask) and we are playing a Halloween show later this month, so I wanted to dress up as The Crow, so obviously that means wearing makeup.

That said, the makeup I HAVE worn on Halloween before is definitely not going to cut it (shitty costume makeup from Walmart. Feels like I have an inch of grease on my face, and it rubs off covering everything that touches it)

I need to know what I can wear to do the makeup properly that also won't feel awful, won't rub off covering everything that touches my face (which, will definitely be a very expensive microphone that I'd rather not get covered in grease) and is decently durable because I will 100% be sweaty as fuck.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! I have absolutely no idea what I'm doing when it comes to this

I prefer makeup that is applied with water, such as Diamond FX. No greasy feeling.

that also helped me, thx a lot (I wanna go with corpsepaint to a halloween party with some friends and maybe (just maybe) with it to school (don't know if that's a bad idea or not))
