Sweating Under Latex Masks - djfrance - 10-19-2006

<span style=\'font-size:14pt;line-height:100%\'>I know that some of you guys have worked in Haunted Houses, or just wear your masks around. I was dressed up in my Halloween get up tonight, I had that latex mask on for maybe 15 minutes and by the time I was finished, my face was dripping wet. I\'ll have to wear it a lot longer than that. Would it help to powder the inside of the mask?
I also have this product called NO SWEAT. It\'s what clown\'s use under their makeup, it seals the skin. I wonder if that would work with a mask?
Any suggestions would be appreciated.</span>

you could always try wearing a thin taboggin to keep from sweating on the mask. i\'m not really educated much of this though. just a thought. :thumbsup: wait, is it the heat you\'re concerned with or sweating on the mask? or both?

no swaet is bascially a glue that seals ur pores it could also casue ya to get sick your body needs to sweat to cool it self and u will get hotter wearing a mask than makeup....the best thing to do is grab some towels and keep powedering threw out the night nad be a man

never heard of the no sweat stuff...try it out and let us know how it works....though i would think you would end up overheating really easily with that on. I have used a Balaclava alot of times when wearing a mask for long periods of time. It will be much hotter for you, but will act as a barrier for the mask to help minimize the sweat/latex interaction...

Balaclava

I got one that is like really think spandex and the inside layer is really thin fleece. I then put powder on the inside of the mask and sprinkle some on the balaclava.

powdering the inside of the mask usually reduces the sweating for me

kinda absorbes it in a way

Anyone else see the humor in the title? Or is it just too late? :blink: ... like without the \'masks\' part in the title...

This suggestion might not help...but depending on how big your mask is, you can always throw in a mini fan. I equipped my Vader helmet with a mini fan to reduce sweating..Its worked for me so far....

eat less salt???

isn;t it quite cold around halloween time?? step outside every so often, and take the mask off.
