Super nOOB here. Question about makeup

Hey all, simple question. When shooting, is it common for all actors to wear some kind of basic makeup, like a foundation to reduce light from reflecting off of shiny skin or this something only done on a bigger budget films? Thanks!
 
If sweat is unavoidable (shooting inside a car on a hot day) what's the best way to go about it?

Thanks!

Perhaps some Chinese herbs to prevent sweating. My bf has his masters in Oriental Medicine, he says taking Yu Ping Feng San (Jade Windscreen Powder) might do it, active ingredients being Huang Qi & Bai Zhu.

He also says their herb that is ephedra would work, unfortunately that's illegal :( Also, it's not as safe to take if you don't need it.
