Undershirts and dark colors are most of it. But it I think the real key is, when you see faces sweat, you’re seeing their makeup running and rubbing off. You’re seeing the makeup changing color and shape dramatically, while their clothes don’t change, and assume that they’re “only sweating on their face.” No, they’re sweating everywhere, it just looks dramatic in one spot.

Plus, lights. Everything else is covered up, but their faces and clear and brightly lit.
