Default Head net/cover, or face paint?

Just out of curiosity, does anyone here use face paint instead of a camo face net? There used to be this stuff put out by tinks that was a powder that was easy to wash off, but wouldnt come off with sweat. It was great, but I can't find it anymore. Face net seems to get in the way with when finding your anchor point.

Anyone else think this way or am I just odd....

I just use one of those spandex style ones that are like a second skin. No clue to your question on paint. Sorry

I tried those spandx face nets and I didn't care for them that much.
I'll use face paint most of the time but in the winter months its gotta be a warm pull over face mask.

The spandex mask won't get in your way and they are cheap and you can get them at Wal-Mart

I wear a semi mask, I hate face paint...a semi mask is what I call a mask that I can remove quickly when I plan on shooting.

I used to paint my face years ago, but I got sick of it tearing my face up from having to wash it off about every day. Now I use a head cover. I used to use the Spanoflauge, but for about the last 5 years I use the Cabela's Camoskinz. They are great. The form fit to your face and head so they don't mess up feeling your anchor point. I use the reguar ones for early season and the fleece lined one for really cold weather. I love them.

I use carbo mask face paint. Easy to wash off, can use just water. Stays on when I sweat. I wear glasses and can't wear a mask cuz my glasses fog up. I even where the carbo mask during rifle season.
