No matter your chosen style (or styles) of dance, cosmetics help performers achieve an overall look, enhance our persona, and help us communicate with the audience using our facial features.

But not everyone comes to the dance with personal experience applying stage makeup. Many of us have had to learn by trial and error, discovering only when we see performance pictures that basic, everyday application isn’t enough!

Princess Farhana and DeVilla will be joining us on the call to show us – via a live web conference – some tips and tricks for challenging elements of stage makeup, like false lashes and making small, deep set, and hooded eyes look larger!

 

You’ll learn:

  • What distinguishes stage makeup from an everyday look
  • The importance of venue size (small restaurant vs. large theater stage)
  • When to scrimp & when to save on beauty products

 

Get personal help with your makeup

In addition, Clubhouse members may submit a photo of themselves in stage makeup to get personalized feedback from our guests during the episode! To submit, an email to info@bellydancegeek.com with your photo (a close-up is best!), your stage name and city/state/country.
 

And as always, we’ll have some discussion time, so you can ask them your questions.
