Belly Dancing Inspired Stage Makeup

Belly Dancing Inspired Stage Makeup

This look was for a sorority sister that is taking a belly dancing class. I have never done stage makeup before so this was a very exciting challenge to put together for her. I have included the pictures that I found in my research which inspired my look for her. 
I had tons of fun using bling and getting to be more dramatic since she will be on stage performing I wanted to make sure that she would stand out and it would match her out fit and performance.

Simple Smokey Eye Look

If you haven't got the hang of intricate makeup but still want something dramatic, this simple smokey eye makeup look is one to try! Prime you lid with liquid foundation or concealer and create a base with soft black eye liner. Line lower and upper lash lines as well as inside rim. Use a small blending brush to soften the edges then apply light base (silver in this case) all over your lid. Now using a round brush in our crease add a dark color (black in this case) all along your brow bone. It helps if you open your eyes so it make a track for the brush as you move it. Drag it towards your lash line and mid way of your eyelid. Finish them by blending well and add mascara.
