What do you mean by "cream paint?" Like Halloween type stuff? If so, then you need to get away from that or you will ALWAYS have problems. Get quality theatrical or grease paint from Mehron, Ben Nye, Pro-Face, or Jim Howle. Then powder it thoroughly. You really can't use too much. More is always better than less to make sure it sets. You just brush off the extra.
As far as the lips, I have the same problem sometimes. I'm going to try the Revlon thing, I think. Otherwise, I just try to keep my lips moisturized otherwise (when not in makeup) and refine my red to areas that are not as likely to chaff. Pat it on lightly, powder sensitively so as to set the makeup but not dry out the lips too much. Hope and pray it works!
