I was in a show a few weeks back, "The Wiz" (Modern version of the Wizard of Oz).
I was the lion, hence, I needed to wear lots of make-up...a layer of orange mixed with white, black eyes, more layers, more black etc.
Every night it was horrible trying to get it all off, and I had to go into school with my face a strange shade of orange (looked like I had been abusing the sunbeds), and black eyes.
The cold cream stuff should be good, my drama teacher has a great tub of make-up remover/cream, it's fantastic, but unfortunately I didn't manage to get a tub.
