Recital Hair/Makeup
Hair in Bun*
*Unless otherwise instructed on the costume sheet
Blush
Eyeshadow

Stage makeup might feel like a little extra, but it helps dancers’ expressions stand out under the bright stage lights and ensures their features are visible to the audience—even from the back row. It’s all part of bringing the performance to life!
