Female Only Duets. Notes about performing the
scenes are also included. Subjects range from silly to

Stage Makeup
These professional-quality kits contain all of the
essentials required to design straight and old-age
characters. Ben Nye’s cream formula feels light, yet the
colors are versatile for main stage or intimate staging.
Because it is a cream, it won’t dry out the face like
pancake or add oil like greasepaint. These makeups
are easily blended, long lasting and irritation free. Kits
now contain more foundations and liners. Each kit
contains: five cream foundations, a total of nine
color liners, rouges, highlights and shadows, dry
rouge, three brushes, two pencils, nose wax, spirit
gum, makeup remover, silver hair grey, latex
sponge, stipple sponge, face powder and powder
puff. Individually, these items would cost over $100,
but in the kit you get all this for only $49.95. Six
different makeup kits are available for various skin tones.
