Want to learn how drag makeup really works?
**register here: https://villavida.at/event/dragalicious-workshop-make-up-with-annie-smokes/**
Join Annie Smokes, a beloved performer from the Dragalicious shows at Villa Vida Café, for a hands-on workshop where she shares her full drag makeup routine. No filters. No secrets.
In this session, Annie walks you through the techniques she uses to create a strong stage look. You will see the full transformation step by step and learn how drag makeup works under stage lights.
This workshop is perfect for beginners who want to start exploring drag. It is also great for performers who want to refine their skills and learn new tricks.
The group will stay small so everyone gets time to practice and ask questions.

## What You Will Learn
• Skin preparation for long-lasting drag makeup
• How to block brows for dramatic looks
• Contour and highlight techniques for the stage
• Eye shape tricks for bigger visual impact
• Lash placement and balance
• How to set your makeup so it survives heat and lights
***
## Workshop Format
First, Annie will demonstrate her makeup process.
Then participants will practice the techniques on their own face. Annie will move around the room and give direct feedback and tips.
This is a hands-on workshop, so expect to actively practice throughout the session.

## What to Bring
Please bring your own makeup kit if you have one, especially complexion products such as:
• foundation
• concealer
• powders or skin-tone products
Some makeup will be available to share, but using your own products helps match your skin tone and skin type.
