Zameena's November Tip
Eyes speak volumes so when performing we use stage makeup to emphasise our eyes because through them we portray the emotions of the dance.
Use good quality eye makeup and mascara. Mascara and false lashes draw attention to our eyes and the emotions therein! Keep your mascara brush clean as it can easily become home to bacteria - eughhhh! At night remove all eye makeup thoroughly and care for your lovely lashes with a little castor oil gently stroked over them.
Here is a fun quiz to see if you can catch the emotion portrayed, purely through the eyes!! See how you do!!

CONGRATULATIONS: In last month's newsletter we had a competition. We asked for the capital of Greece. The winner, picked at random, of the Pharaonic Set was Linda in Sheffield and the winner of the pearl set was Joana in Suffolk, CONGRATULATIONS to you both!! And a very big Thank You to everyone who entered and correctly gave the answer, which was: Athens.
Thank you for reading this month's Zameena. Next month is our fun Christmas Special! We can hardly believe it - this year seems to have gone so fast! Until next time, Best Wishes and Happy Shimmying
