This is the baseline list of products that have made my drag makeup sweat proof and water proof.
To test it I walked for hours with it in Pride and then even went into the ocean after the parade, my face was still on.

Brushes and Sponges
The right tools to start you off, you wont need much else for your face! And dont be afraid to experiment. I love using the smaller brushes for contour and highlight.
Makeup Brush Sets
My honest favorite brush in my kit, and my favorite to use for blush.
Trixie Cosmetics - P-12 Angled Cheek Brush
I love a dual ended brush whenever I can find one, and these ones are very soft and the shorter bristled ones are nice and dense.
Eye Brushes
Prime
The base of it all! Use on clean skin and let it get tacky before applying foundation.
Face Glue Gripping Makeup Primer
Liquids and Creams
“A Really Good Foundation” indeed! Full coverage but not heavy. All around what I want!
Kimchi Chic Foundation
For when I want something lighter and fresher but still with retaining power.
Triclone™ Skin Tech Foundation
Full coverage and lightweight, perfect for the mountain of highlights on my drag face.
Hydrating Camo Concealer | Full Coverage
Loooove to contour with this! Very easy and a really nice formula that just glides on.
CoverGirl Trublend Skin Enhancer Contour Stick
Powders
First powdering step. I use the transluscent one after all my cream and liquid makeup is on so it doesnt mess with the pigments I’ve got already.
Can't Stop Won't Stop Mattifying Pressed Powder
A second powder, this time with some pigment to even out my base
Fit Me® Matte + Poreless Powder Foundation Makeup
Just the best contour palette, I will never look back. I’ve been using it for years in theater and drag and I will not change it.
NYX PROFESSIONAL MAKEUP Highlight & Contour Pro
My favorite blush for drag so far! It feels like it could just as easily be stage ready or everyday.
Plush Bunny Blush
Liners
The best I’ve tried to draw on facial hair! I use it after powdering and then add a small bit of translucent powder on top.
Creme Colors by Ben Nye
Looove these to line my eyes and add details to drawn on facial hair, as well as graphic liners!
Epic Ink Waterproof Liquid Eyeliner
Holds true and will not budge from your lashes!
Volumizing & Lengthening Mascara
Set
The best setting spray I’ve tried so far! Seriously I think this is the one that had me going into the ocean and emerging with still a full face on.
