Whiteface
Clowns.
Whiteface
clowns come in two main varieties: the Classic Whiteface Clown, which is based
on the Pierrot figure, and the Buffoonish Clown, also referred to as the
"Comedy Clown" or the "Grotesque Whiteface Clown." This
variety often has partial (mostly red) hair and grotesquely highlighted features,
most notably a red nose and mouth. Bozo the Clown is one of the clown icons who
helped make this popular in North America; when you use the term
"Clown," most people here immediately picture this kind of clown.

Clowns
Around
their eyes and mouth, the Auguste clown sports white, and the rest of their
exposed skin is covered in a flesh-colored greasepaint base. They typically use
a big fake snout. They frequently have over-the-top eyebrows and may have their
lower lip painted in either crimson or black. They might choose to wear a
vibrant wig or one with a hairless top and side fringes of hair. Their costumes
frequently have too many big pieces and have very vivid colours. Party

Mime
Clowns.
Some
comedians also practise the art of mime. They frequently don mime-style makeup
that covers only their jawline and leaves their neck bare. (Some performers
refer to this type of clowning as "dirty neck clowning" because they
think it is amateurishly done.) If you wear this makeup, people will anticipate
you to perform illusions similar to mime.) Party Calowns Salt Lake City.
Rodeo Clowns.
Clowning
has a very specific subset known as rodeo performance. Some rodeo clowns use
Tramp or Auguste style make up. Additionally, there is a very specific type of
rodeo makeup that emphasises geometric shapes rather than the performer's
facial characteristics. The bullfighter and the barrel clown are the two
different kinds of rodeo entertainers.
