I have to be on stage too (not ballet) and my artist uses a shimmer on my cheekbones along with the usual suspects to make my face show up under those lights and it photographs beautifully.
I dance too! In fact my recital was yesterday! Lol
Ok but i wear fake eyelashes (for drama), bright pink lips. Winged eyeliner, loads of blush and i contour my cheekbones. Some of the stuff you do. It looks fabulous with the lighting! Use glitter!
Highlighting your face would look so pretty under the stage lights :) but do it in all the right places or you'll risk looking oily. Hope it all goes well! :)
Ok, so coming up in a few days we have a performance (ballet). I wanted to try something new with my makeup this year. In the past years I just did the usual (winged eyeliner, red lipstick, blush, mascara). I wanted to know if it would look okay if I highlighted some areas of my face, or would I look like a drag queen?
