One of my dance teachers, Zoe Jakes, did an instructional video DVD set, and in it she did a demo of how she did her signature stage makeup look. She likes dark and extreme, and darker eye makeup is generally associated with Tribal Fusion Bellydance.
However, I like to add white and/or metallic/silver eye makeup to make my eyes look wider which I use the 1990s Eurodance look from Europe like Germany, Netherlands, Belgium, France, and is similar to some ballet stage makeup looks. The eyes have a Goth or Gothic look or feel.
I saw my teacher use her extreme dark eye makeup in a bohemian chic shoot by a really popular Californian photographer, Sequoia Emmanuelle, for a clothing company, Black Lotus, made by her friend.
So, not only do I like to support people who's work I like, but also crediting them where the credit is due. I was very inspired by a combination all all of those, plus did my own thing with my own stuff to make it me ME.
These are a mixture of filters.
