\"davina-blueassiut-torquay-headshot-web\"I recently posted a blog about the sources from my assiut, and I received several requests to share what products I used to create my “Blue Assiut” makeup look. \u00a0This photo was snapped in the Toorkok Hotel in Torquay, UK at the Celebrating Dance festival. This is the look I put together to wear while I was just walking around enjoying the workshops, teaching, and shopping in the souk.<\/p>\n

Because I was traveling internationally, I really had to plan strategically to take the minimum amount of makeup to make a maximum impact.<\/p>\n

Before I travel I “rehearse” my performance outfit from head to toe. \u00a0That includes putting on a full face of makeup. \u00a0My method is to put on my makeup as I would before a performance, and as I use each product, I put it into my makeup bag. \u00a0This simple procedure makes sure that I have everything I need with me. \u00a0Because I put my cosmetics into my checked bag, I always choose affordable internet and drugstore products. \u00a0If they don’t survive the rigors of travel and become either broken or lost, they are affordable to replace. \u00a0I also avoid taking special or limited edition makeup that I would be sad to lose.<\/p>\n

If you are interested in hearing more of my thoughts on the pre-packing ritual of the makeup rehearsal, and the cosmetic products I used to create this look, check out the YouTube video below. \u00a0Enjoy!<\/p>\n

Happy Costuming & Dance,
