Well, gang, After a ton of reading, I decided to trust you folks and dive into the really hardcore makeup stuff.
FX Warehouse was the most recommended locale I found. I was expected to know the products and not look to the owner for any real product information, (the reason being that people have different reactions to products, and she also made it clear she was used to dealing with professionals who knew what they wanted).
I'll clarify, she was polite and personable, so don't be put off by that, she was a nice person... but when it came to makeup info, I was flying by the seat of my own internet digging. I can understand the preference for educated customers in this arena, and I'm a newbie to this stuff. There's too much stuff out there to go shopping blind.
Thus far I completely trust FX Warehouse. It's me I'm unsure about!
Here's what I came up with to take care of our foam latex facial appliance needs--
Non Tacky Pax paint
"Agent X" Remover & Cleaner
Pros Aide regular adhesive
Did I do good?
Any experience with these products at all?
I gotta tell ya, trying to find PAX references in the Search menu is a pain, so feel free to discuss pax paints, especially how they wear on skin, and your experiences with the above products or similar.

Thea, is indeed a very nice person to deal with. You got descent products for foam prosthetics. Did you buy pre-made foam pieces, or casting your own?

Premade foam latex... ScreamTeam, all the way!
And yes, Thea was extremely nice, just professionally cautious for understandable reasons. I'd gladly do business with her again, but the research is mine to do.

Actually, the only dealing that I had from FX Warehouse was today. She is not a fan of the forum and appears to not respect the members here (my opinion).
I will not quote her personal email to me in public. However it was not nice.HalloweenForum.com Admin

I agree FXSupply is a great source...and you said it correctly when you said they are a tad slow.
