Makeup Tutorial for Older Dancers

Recital and performance season will be here before we know it. Start practicing makeup techniques for the perfect performance look. What you will need for those tutorial is eye shadow, false eye lashes, blush, and your choice of lip color.

Step One:For a smokey eye, use a silver color and cover the whole eye lid. Start from the inside and work out. Cover all the way up to the eye brow.

Step Two:After the eye lids are covered with silver, use a darker color with a thin brush fill in the crease of the eye and do the liner section of the eye. Or try using your finger to fill in for a more blended look.

Step Three:For a more defined look use eye liner for the under the lid.

Step Four:When using blush make sure to get the apples of their cheeks all the way up their cheek bone and blend. 

Step Five:Pick your choice of lipstick color, bright colors like red and pink usually stands out best on the dancer floor. Just simply fill in the their lips.

Step Six:Pick your favorite style false eye lashes. Put a little mascara on before hand. Grab your lashes, place a small amount of glue along the lash. Then set it on as close to the base of the eye as you can. Press and hold for a few seconds. Blend the false eye lash with natural lashes by using mascara over the top.
