Make-up on stage.

The deal is, I play a lot of theatre and I have shows on Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Because of the sharp light, we have to wear really much makeup, especially foundation. Very thick layers. I heard you can get really many pimples from wearing that much foundation for a long time. The play is two hours long, and we get our makeup on like two hours before it starts. Will it give me pimples? And can I prevent it?
