Ever wondered why you were obsessed with ballerinas as a kid? Ballet has been a dream dance for many girls growing up. I was no exception, and I always wondered why I was so drawn to it. Now I understand that it wasn't just the tutu! Ballet is the most graceful way to express yourself. It's like an angel's or a fairy's dance!

Ballet is a classical dance form characterized by grace and precision of movement. But it's also an art form of expression that extends beyond dance; it's about fashion and beauty too. Ballerina beauty has an ethereal quality, and if you've ever wondered how to achieve the ballet core makeup look, we've got you covered! Forget harsh lines and heavy layers. Ballet core makeup is all about soft, ethereal vibes that make you look like you just stepped out of a sparkly dream.

While you may not be a ballerina yourself, that doesn't mean you can't enjoy the elegance of ballet-inspired makeup. Here's how to achieve the ballet core makeup look:

What: Flawless, Dewy, Glass like Skin
Ace It: The base of ballet core makeup focuses on a radiant healthy sheen base. Prep your skin with a primer that leaves you illuminated and glossy as a donut. Use a lightweight foundation or tinted moisturizer for a skin that looks uber natural. Use a creamy concealer to cover any blemishes for a flawless finish.

What: Angel Pink Eye Makeup
Ace It: Ballet core makeup uses soft, shimmery colors for a touch of romance. Pick a light pink or rose gold eyeshadow on your lids, blending it gently onto the crease. Dab a soft, pearly white eyeshadow or highlighter on the centre of your eyelids for some extra luminosity.

Ace It: A flush of pink blush is essential for the ballet core look. Apply a cream or powder blush in a soft pink shade to the apples of your cheeks, blending it upwards towards your temples for a snatched and youthful lift. Blend the blush well to avoid harsh lines.
