Tips On How To Apply Stage Makeup Kits For Schools

By Charles Richardson


Whether competing in a dance or performing a musical, stage makeup is very important. The perception that audience have of you will be influenced by how properly you have used your Stage Makeup Kits for Schools. Well done make up will bring life to your performance and draws their attention to you. If not well done, it will make you look dull.

Before applying makeup, make sure that your skin is clean. You should add a toner that will make your skin complexion even. At this point you should make sure that the toner you are using is alcohol free. This is because stage makeup usually dries the skin especially when exposed to the stage lights.

The foundation should be slightly darker than your skin color. To do this, you are supposed to start its application from your forehead as you move upwards towards your hairline. Then apply foundation to the entire face. If some conspicuous parts will not be covered by your performance costume, make sure you apply it to these areas so that you do not have a mask effect.

After successfully applying the foundation, you should then embark on the blush or rouge. One thing that performers should pay attention to is to smile while working on the blush. For a girl, a rosy blush will complement their skin tone well. But if it is a lad choose a color that is a bit paler.

You should then do accent to your eyes. Ensure you apply the eye shadow first. Use a lighter shade to highlight the brow bone then a slightly darker one for the eyelids. You should use colors that will well blend at the point at which they meet. You can opt for a dramatic look. This can be achieved by choosing a dark shade to line the top of the eyelids.

Lip lining should then ensue. The color of the lip liner should blend in with that of the lipstick. This is vital because the lip liner will hold the lipstick without it bleeding into your face when you sweat. Then apply the lip color. The color of the lipstick should match your costume. Therefore, you must make it a point to consult your costumer on what color of attire you will wear on stage.

To set the makeup, apply a translucent powder on your face. This can be easily done by dipping a brush in your powder. You should ensure that you apply just the right amount. If the dipped brush has excess powder, tap it on a paper towel to remove the extra powder. By using powder, you will ensure that your make will not get ruined when you sweat during the performance.

After you get done with your make up, you should take a look at yourself. From your reflection in the mirror, your makeup should appear slightly exaggerated because as you perform, the stage lights will be able to lighten up the dark shade. You should know that each individual in the audience will be viewing from different perspective and therefore you have to ensure that your make up communicates your expressions on stage.
