Does anyone know what type or where I could find some paint that won't crack on skin? Any websites that explain it would be great. I'm looking for some thing would would work with an airbrush. Thankx in advance.

    krylolan has a new product -
    it's supposed to last all day
    they told me it was about to
    be introduced last time I was
    there at the SF store. worth
    checking out if available - it
    was used at the last olympics.

    There are also water based products

    Ben Nye - Liquicolor body paint
    Kryolan - AQUAcolor and a formulation premixed
    for an airbrush... jetcolor or something like that

    ^^ those are the best of the older products.
    I'd reccommend mixing with a sealer product for
    body painting with an airbrush. (except jetcolor)
    these are not waterproof tho they hold up to
    moderate sweating

    graftobian and merhon have products
    also, but perhaps the formulations aren't
    quite as refined. Still useable.

    kryolan available here in san francisco
    you can look it up in the web or ask if
    you have any questions

    there are alcohol-dissolved products for
    more permenance, but they are a little
    much to reccommend for large areas.

    I do use kryolans' alcohol dissolved
    cake body paint for zebra stripes when
    conditions mean I'll be sweating.
    but it's a pain to work with. You
    can see in my photos, the zebra
    in hooves has been pulling a cart in
    a hot outfit, but the makeup hasn't
    moved a bit...
