I'm willing to shell out the money for blingbling that will stay on my face in 95 degree weather for 12 hours.

One year we did Gay Pride around midday, so I was putting makeup on at 8 or 9 in the morning before getting the rest of my costume on. Once we were there, we danced for a couple hours in the broiling heat and sweated up a storm. Then we left there, grabbed a quick dinner and went to Shaker Hts to peform our second gig at Passport Project in a small studio where they refused to turn on the air conditioning because the director didn't want to pay the electric bill for running it. So the door was open and a fan was on, and once again, we turned into a big ol' pool of sweat.

When I got home that night around 9:00, my blingbling was still exactly where I'd put it in the morning. I hadn't used any sealer or model in the bottle type stuff, just the blingbling. Any makeup that can stand up to a day like that I'm willing to pay for!
