Makeup Tips:
FOR VERY YOUNG DANCERS:
It can be very difficult to apply makeup to a very young child. We hear all the time that getting them to sit still long enough for hair and makeup when they are so excited about the recital can be a challenge. Also, it is important to note that not all young children like the sensation of makeup being applied (usually eyeliner and mascara), and because of this, applying certain kinds of makeup can quickly become a real challenge.
If you are a brand new dance mom, or if you have a child that is very young or sensitive to certain kinds of makeup, we ask you to just try to apply what you can, and not worry about the rest.
It is most important to apply one color of eyeshadow on the lid of the eye, mascara, blush, and lipstick.
Foundation, multiple colors of eyeshadows, and eyeliner are all more advanced makeup techniques and can be skipped until you and your child are a little more experienced.
