Advice for public performance?

Dear dancers, martial artists, gymnasts, lifters, contortionists, and anyone else who performs their athletic feats in public (or just looks damn good at the gym!):
I've been training in aerial arts for about 4 months now (static trapeze, corde lisse, and aerial fabric to be specific), and I'm running into a problem I hadn't previously thought of... performance. In front of people. Blegh.
This gives me two issues:
1) I normally never wear makeup, save for eyeliner and mascara. In my classes, obviously I don't bother with makeup at all. But now that class performances are coming up, I don't want my face to look like the flushed, sweaty mess it normally is. Any recommendations for products that will make my face look matte despite profuse sweating?
2) How are your ladies styling their hair to keep it out of their face while exercising, but still looking good? I'm tired of the big bun, or poofy ponytail, and hair sticks might fall out or get in the way when I'm on the ropes. I have a -lot- of long hair, and no idea what to do with it. Here's a picture for reference:

I've played with pressed powder but the drugstore stuff doesn't hold up to 10 minutes of physical activity. Is there something else I should be looking for? I feel hopeless!

wash face
apply lip balm
apply cold cream then wipe off
apply foundation: MAC studio tech or Dermablend
apply blush - usually cream type
powder face liberally with cornsilk or some other sheer powder - brush powder upward with a short fat brush with short strokes - sets foundation and blush
apply eyeliner, mascara
wipe off any excess lip balm, apply lipliner and lipstick. Place single layer of tissue over lips - powder.
This would pretty much stay on and in place from 9am to 5 pm with 2 - 3 sweaty 1/2 hour stage shows.
no idea what to do about hair.
Fine/medium hair, medium porosity and density. Elastic, but not too elastic.
Various shades of grey and white
4" uniform layer cut.

I probably danced for about 8 years - I started taking Middle Eastern Dance classes at a YWYMCA then found a woman who led a ren fair troupe.
