When performing on stage, it’s helpful to wear makeup to prevent the performer’s skin from reflecting back the set lighting. Makeup can also help emphasize facial features and expressions, and improve visibility to audiences further away.

Please follow these simple steps to help your child create a perfect, stage-ready face:

• Pink or Rose

Lipstick (Required)
