The Ballet Core Aesthetic: Embracing Graceful Simplicity

The core principles revolve around achieving a flawless complexion while embracing a minimalist approach to makeup.
En Pointe Makeup Techniques
1. Ethereal Complexion:
- Start with a sheer, luminous foundation that mimics the porcelain-like glow of a ballet dancer’s skin. Charlotte Tilbury’s Hollywood Flawless Filter is a favorite of mine for this look!
- Embrace the ‘no-makeup’ makeup look with light coverage and a focus on natural radiance.
2. Graceful Eyes:
- Opt for soft, pastel eyeshadows in shades of blush pink, soft lilac, or dusty rose to create a dreamy, balletic gaze. Check out Makeup by Mario’s Ethereal Eyes Eyeshadow Pallet. It is perfect for this trend!
- Accentuate the eyes with feathery lashes, using lengthening mascaras for a fluttery effect. Benefit Cosmetics Fan Fest Mascara could be your go to.
3. Subtle Contours:
- Sculpt the face delicately with barely-there contouring to enhance facial structure without overpowering the natural gracefulness. Patrick Ta’s Major Sculpt Crème Contour & Powder Bronzer Duo in She’s Sculpted is perfect and it’s a two in one!
4. Blush & Glow:
- Rosy, flushed cheeks reminiscent of a dancer’s healthy glow are a hallmark of Ballet Core Beauty. Apply blush in soft, diffused strokes for a natural flush. Use Makeup by Mario’s Soft Pop Plumping Blush Veil in Perfect Pink to achieve this look.
- Pro tip add Haus Labs Bio-Radiant Gel Powder Highlighter in Rose Quartz to top it off, giving the cheeks a beautiful, sheer pink glow.
5. Audacious Lips:
- Make a statement with muted tones like dusty mauves, soft peaches, or ballet slipper pinks. Matte or glossy finishes work beautifully.
- Pair Makeup by Mario’s Ultra Suede® Sculpting Lip Pencil in Smoky Pink with a Rhode Skin’s beautiful Peptide Lip Tint in Ribbon for the most gorgeous ballet hue lip.
