I hope that this email finds you well and surviving, if not thriving in this coldest of winters. I am in the middle of going through my end of year review for my business. Each December I make time to look at the stats of my small independent business and this year was quite grim. However, I&#8217;m happy to say that my little business will survive the train-wreck that was 2020!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;\">In 2020, I struggled with injury, so I decided to focus my continued education on developing more makeup skills. Dance is a journey and there are many aspects to study and grow. There&#8217;s no escaping the fact that we&#8217;ve been cooped up inside for the better part of the year. But that lead us to new distance-learning opportunities in the form of classes and workshops with instructors across the globe.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.davina.us\/blog\/2020\/12\/2020-maekup-project\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"7899\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.davina.us\/blog\/2020\/12\/2020-maekup-project\/2020-10-20-makeupworkshop-devilla-beforeafter-blogjpg\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.davina.us\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/2020-10-20-MakeupWorkshop-Devilla-BeforeAfter-Blogjpg.jpg?fit=360%2C360&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"360,360\" data-comments-opened=\"0\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"2020-10-20-MakeupWorkshop-Devilla-Before:After Blogjpg\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.davina.us\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/2020-10-20-MakeupWorkshop-Devilla-BeforeAfter-Blogjpg.jpg?fit=300%2C300&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.davina.us\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/2020-10-20-MakeupWorkshop-Devilla-BeforeAfter-Blogjpg.jpg?fit=360%2C360&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"alignright wp-image-7899 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.davina.us\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/2020-10-20-MakeupWorkshop-Devilla-BeforeAfter-Blogjpg.jpg?resize=360%2C360&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"360\" height=\"360\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h2>Makeup Classes<\/h2>\n<div><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;\">Since I couldn&#8217;t dance, and I wanted to continue to invest in my skills building.
