How can I get non-runny white make-up and a prosthetic smile for my "Joker" costume?
I want to be The Joker for Halloween. However, I want it to be realistic. I don't want to wear some giant dumb mask, nor do I want the cheap Cartoon Costume.
What I want is a similar outfit to Heath Ledger's Joker in The Dark Knight, white, non-runny (by that I mean it shouldn't come off without soap or, at least, doesn't come off with sweat) face-paint for my face and neck and some chest to look like bleached skin, and something to give me a "permanent" smile (a prosthetic or something like that), and, of course, green hair-dye.
All help is appreciated. Thanks.

Go to a costume shop/theater supply store. They will have professional make-up that you can buy. Some places will also do demonstrations to show you how to apply the make-up to achieve the look you’re wanting. If I remember right, Mehron is one of the more popular brands. I liked it when I used it. If you have sensitive skin, you need to be careful with it though and don’t use cold cream to remove it. Instead, use baby wipes.
Hope that helps.

Lol, You can try white "gothic" makeup, that they sell in some places like hottopic, and other stores like Walmart, Or look during th halloween time at Walmart, K-Mart, etc.. in there makeup section. I know for a FACT that they will have white non runny makeup that you will be able to use.
