The Power of Stage Makeup!

...a few photos say it all...
(also see other dancers' Photos page 2)


Here's what I look like 
when I wake up
...and before
I "make-up".
(Fine for housework!)
No makeup
Regular "daytime makeup"
This is what
I usually wear...
(to the grocery store!)
Day makeup
"Evening makeup"
This is the look most students
do at first - but it's still
"not quite there yet."
Evening makeup
Evening-wear makeup
"Evening makeup"
in costume
doesn't look right...
Stage makeup
"Performance makeup"
This look belongs on stage.

The difference between "evening makeup" 
and "performance/stage makeup" is a 'pancake'  foundation applied with a barely-damp sponge;
thick, black (waterproof) liquid eyeliner;
false eyelashes;
and rich jewel-toned blush and lipstick;
and of course contouring shadows under the cheekbone and browbone.

Remember to practise in your makeup to see what happens! I wear contacts so I stay away from powder eyeshadows.

My lovely eyebrows are au naturel - ...my only
"natural" beauty! Even then I sometimes extend them with brown pencil.
 

In costume w/daytime makeup Stage makeup
What a difference!
Which face do you think will show up better under stage lights?

The POWER of Stage Makeup starts working for you before you even step out in front of an audience -

Put it to work for you!
