When The Clowns Compete

As Mehron Makeup continues to receive press coverage and awards for its Beauty Makeup, The Clowns are never forgotten. Winning a 2011 Essence Beauty Award and a 2011 O-Ward from O Magazine for Beauty Makeup is certainty an honor. As Mehron forges ahead in building a Professional Beauty Makeup Collection, the original customers from the Performance Community are never forgotten. In the beginning, 1927, Mehron Makeup had a limited selection especially made for the performers of the day, one of the premier Mehron Makeup Products was Clown White, a pure white for the working Clowns and Mimes that was affordable, providing them with perfect coverage that lasted throughout their performances.

As the years have gone by, the Mehron Collection of Professional Makeup has grown to encompass hundreds of Makeup Products for every type of Makeup Application for the Theatrical Community and for everyone with the introduction of everyday Beauty Makeup. Throughout the years every Mehron Makeup Product Line has grown with the times, Clown Makeup is no exception. The Clown Makeup Collection still includes the perfect Clown White Face Makeup, added to it over the decades was Clown Pink, Clown White Lite, Foundation Greasepaint, HYPER-FORMANCE CreamBlend™, and now, ProFACE Gala Competition Makeup, the ultimate evolution in Clown Face Makeup. ProFACE Gala Competition Makeup comes in White, Black and Red.

Taking the best qualities of Mehron Clown White, the Researchers and Chemists have blended a creamier, smoother formulation for Clown Face Makeup that stay moist and fresh looking even through the longest performance days. Learning from over eight decades of producing Clown White, Mehron has produced the truest Black and Red Clown Face Makeup for their ProFACE Gala Competition Makeup line. Bold, vibrant and evenly pigmented, the colors of new ProFACE Gala Competition Makeup won't fade or dry out during the show. For the clowns of the circus, the clowns on the go, Mehron Clown Makeup is the only clown makeup they need to get their face on day after day.

Winning Awards for Beauty Makeup is putting smiles on the faces of the Mehron Team, while the Clowns continue to smiles on the faces of everyone with Mehron Clown Makeup.

The Dangerous Job of Clowning

Dealing with a room full of wise cracking children might be dangerous for some clowns, while sleeping in the proximity of Lions and Tigers and Elephants might provoke fear in other clowns. The Clowns with the most dangerous job in entertainment have to be the Rodeo Clowns. These brave souls put on a brightly colored Clown Face and put themselves between an enraged bull and the rider who is is scampering to get out of the Rodeo Ring. As the Cowboys and Cowgirls are high tailing it away from the bull, the Rodeo Clown is drawing the bull's attention towards themselves with their brightly colored clown makeup and over sized hats giving the rider the extra time they need to get out of the way of the charging bull.

Although it seems improbable to most of us, these Rodeo Clowns have chosen their profession. They purposely became a colorful target for ranging bulls. Putting on Clown Makeup is a call to duty for all Clowns, but to Rodeo Clowns putting on Clown Makeup means another few hours of entertaining the crowds while performing a dangerous task. The Clowns of the Rodeo suffer injury and risk themselves every time they perform and the vibrant colors of their Clown makeup are essential in helping to protect the other Rodeo performers. Besides the antics of the Rodeo Clown the brightness and coloration of the Clown Makeup draws the attention of the Bull away from his original target, the rider, and straight towards the brightly colored clown.

Rodeo Clowns are clowns that work in teams, protecting each other while allowing the rider to exit the ring unharmed. Durable Clown Makeup is essential in this kind of clowning. The Clown Makeup used by Rodeo Clowns must be able to withstand heat, dust, and sweat for hours without a reapplication.

The vibrant color selection of Mehron Clown Makeup could be a Rodeo Clown's best friend. There is not another Clown White Clown Face Makeup produced in the United States for over 8 decades that is as white as long lasting as Mehron Clown White. Adding the reds, blues and greens of Mehron Color Cups guarantees that the Bulls will notice the Clowns in the ring with them. Rodeo Clowns can also opt for the intensely bright colors of Fantasy F-X™ Makeup (Water Based) or the lanolin enriched Foundation Greasepaint by Mehron. All Clowns will appreciate the long lasting formulations of Mehron Clown Makeup all made from ingredients that will not pose any danger to their skin unlike the jobs that some clowns undertake.
