Flesh colored tights, flesh colored pointe shoes, flesh colored flat shoes.There are many brands available in many flesh colors. Choose the closest one or two to their skin tone. Pay attention to if your dancer has more pink, or yellow in their skin. This helps when choosing. Look for these brands. Theatricals, Body Wrappers, Mariia, Bloch.All easily found at Discount Dance Supply.
4) Flesh colored undertard ​
A good flesh colored undertard to be worn under costumes. This should have the lowest back line possible and straps that are simple and also flesh colored.

​
To make their pointe shoes flesh colors, buy an inexpensive pancake type foundation. Dancers will need to test on an old shoe or in a place where it can't be seen. Dancers should match the flesh colored tights they chose as closely as possible. ​
hey will receive a text from me with a picture of how I like their make-up to be done. ​
