Contaminations
During the first lesson we was told about double dipping and what it can cause, below are images of infections which can be contracted by double dipping and not washing your make up brushes.
Conjunctivitis
Conjunctivitis is a infection of the membrane that lines the eyelid and portion of the eyeball. Conjunctivitis is more commonly known as pink eye, this condition causes the small blood vessels in the membrane to enlarge. this cause the red cast that gives this condition its name. Although this usually children adults who use cosmetics can develop conjunctivitis if bacteria comes in contact with the membrane. To avoid this you should avoid double dipping and make sure brushes are clean.
Impetigo
impetigo is a highly contagious bacterial skin infection
causing sores and blistering to the skin. Although impetigo mainly affects children it lurks around on anything, so if you come in contact with someone who has it it is very easy to pass on.
Cold sores - Small blisters which develop on the lips or around the mouth, they are cause by herpes a simplex virus which usually clears up without treatment if not infected within 7-10 days.

Blocking out the eyebrows you can do in two different processes
First step - Soap.
you will need;
• Soap
• your make up brushes
• the skin base color
• spatular
• sponge
Step by step
-
First, get a bold full of water and a bar of soap, use your make up brush, i used my angled brush and start to work dig your brush into your soap this will soften to soap for the next
step.
-
Dab on back of your hand before applying to your eyebrows.
-
First go against the eyebrows making sure you get all underneath the hairs
-
Next go with your eyebrows this will stick your eyebrows down when dry.
-
Apply all stages above until you are satisfied the eyebrows are stuck down enough.
If they aren’t stuck down properly the next stages will go wrong and you will see the
products you next use will be stuck to the soap.
The next few steps depend on the colour you are using for you base.
If you use white you can apply the product straight on, but before hand make sure you dab it
on the back of your hand incase you have to much product on the sponge.
Gently dab on the eyebrow working the product over the eyebrows, always start with your
eyebrows, you can blend out afterwards, you can make your face from your eyebrows but not
your eyebrows from your face.
Apply as many layers as you need.
Eventually your eyebrows will start to disappear, which is funny looking at first but that is what
its meant to look like.
If you decide to use the natural foundation such as brown beige or black, you can apply red to
the eyebrow before using the foundation, this is used also to cover up tattoo’s.
The other way you can block out eyebrows is with a glue stick aka prix stick.
The process is the same as the soap but you can apply it directly to the eyebrows or you can a
spatular.
Personally i found this wasn't as effective for me because it dried very quickly and started to
flake up after i put my base on.

Perfect eyes and lips.
For perfect eyes and lips you will need:
- Fixing powder.
- Eyeshadows cream/powder.
- Angle/eyeshadow brush.
- Eyeliner.
- Powderpuff
- Tape
- Lip palette
- matte/gloss mix
Lets start with the eyes first, you will need to powder all around your eyes making sure you get underneath, this will prevent smudging when you place eyeshadow on your eyelids. After you have done this, examine your models eyes and get to know what will suit them best, if they have big eyes, small eyes or droopy eyes.
Once you have examined your models face you can pick what colours you would like to work with.
In the above list you will see i have mention tape, this is perfect for applying eyeliner to the eye and getting the perfect flick at the end.
Lips, perfect lips, this is my favorite part, you will want to your model to apply lip barm around the lips on the lips. Depending what colour your want on your models lips start of with the angle brush which is originally the eyeliner brush, this is perfect for the outlining of your lips. Once you have chosen your colour apply your flirt layer and blot them with a cotton pad depending if you want them matte or gloss you apply either of them ontop, once finished with your layers and how much you want to apply get them to blot and add fixing powder on top this will set the lipstick to stain.
Contouring.
First, you must examine your models structure and anatomy of the face and where the shades and light lie naturally in on the face.
you will need:
Fan brush
Mixing Palette
Concealers
Contouring Colour
Mixing Palette
Concealers
Contouring Colour
Application
- First, feel the face structure to find where the face bones and jawline lie, this will determine where you will enhance the light and shade.
- Now, its your choice either to use grease or powder to contour with, i chose grease as i wanted a darker effect. This colour should be two shades darker than your natural skin tone.
- Remove this onto your palette and use your small powder brush, you can use your fan brush as well.
- Before applying gently feel your models cheekbone and dab gently underneath, not on top of their cheek bone. You can also apply to the temples, side of nose and jawline lightly to create an illusion of a shadow, this will create a thinner face.
- Highlighting, for highlighting you use one shade lighter than your natural skin tone.
- Apply to the areas you want to pull out or emphasise, these areas include: the centre of your nose, forehead, chin and tops of your cheekbones.
With contouring you can go extreme but i personally think it is a lot more softer/ironic to have it simple.
Images below show my self after before and after contouring.
Skin base.
you will need:
- Cleanser, toner, moisturiser
- primer
- Foundation brush
- Concealer brush
- foundation pallet - oil
- concealer pallet - oil
- fixing/finishing powder
- buffing brush
- Mixing pallet - if you wish.
-
Step by step what you will need to do:
- Skin consultation, this will give you your models skin type, tone and any allergies they may have.
- Cleanse,tone and moisturise your models skin, in preparation for the next stages.
- Apply your primer to your models skins, only use a small amount you don't your models skin to sticky.
- Once you've prepared your models skin, examine your models skin tone, mix together a colour an apply to the jawline of your model.
- Once you are satisfied with your colour choice ( for the perfect skincolour you shouldn't see a colour chance between foundation an face), apply all around the face making sure your brush is always moving.
- After the face is fully covered including hairline, then you apply your concealer, this is two shades lighter than your models skin tone.
- Apply your concealer to any red areas, blemishes and dark spots. Once again you can use a buffing blush to blend in to the foundation and skin.
- Final step, you will need you fixing powder and a powder puff, get some powder on you puff and dab on the back of your hand, Gently roll this around your models face making sure your getting all the creases within the face.
Here are some images of my final turn out, baring in mind this was my first ever time applying make up to another person face other than my own.
The first picture is the model Sophie with no make up on and last being with half a face of base foundation on.
Looking at the final picture makes me proud of how well i did! At the very beginning i was dreading the whole idea of actually having to apply make up to someone else face, even though it is my dream job, that can be very daunting! Sue told me i did very well but need to work on some areas which i did not get right the first time. But you always learn from your mistakes.
During this Lesson we was taught how to preform skin consultations and how to cleanse, tone and moisturise the skin before applying make.
First of all;
Before applying make-up, you must first prep the skin to ensure it is clean and ready for make-up. To do this there are three steps that must be carried out: cleansing, toning and moisturising.
Skin Consultation:
Before carrying out any cleanse on your model's face you must first complete a consultation form to gather important information.
The products you will need to use for the cleanse are as follows:
This is the biggest procedure out of the three as well as the most important i would say.
Cleanse Cleansing your skin is extremely important as it helps to break down the particles of the make-up to remove them.
First take two cotton pads and cleanse all areas of the face, ensure that you get right into hard to reach areas such as the sides of the nose as these areas are more prone to blackheads and breakouts.
To remove eye make up get your model to close their eyes and gently wipe in a downwards motion to remove any eye make-up they may be wearing. To remove from the bottom lashes ask your model kindly to look up, this will enable you to get close to the bottom lashes and waterline, use a cotton pad underneath to catch any remaining product.
Always make sure that all of the make-up has been removed from the skin.
The actions taking when removing are as follows:
sweeping strokes up the neck
take the pads across the jawline
take the cleanser up onto the chin and cheeks
across the upper lip
sides of the nose and down the centre of nose
across forehead and eyebrows
gently around the eye area to remove any eyeshadow
Step two: Tone
Toning is equally as important as it will take away any excess make-up that the cleanser didnt and it will also help to tighten the pores and remove oil.
To tone the skin repeat the same actions as with cleasing, remembering not to apply too much toner to the cotton wool pads (the skin should never feel overly wet and ask your model to close their eyes). Steps three:
Moisturise
And to finish, use a small amount of moisturiser and apply in similar upward motions onto the skin. You don't want to use too much moisturiser as it may not sit on the skin properly and you may end up with complications later when applying make-up to your model's face.
Your model's skin type will determine how much moisturiser you use; for example a drier skin may need slightly more moisturiser where as an oily skin would not. If your model's skin is on the drier side, advise them to gently exfoliate their skin once or twice a week to remover any dead skin cells on the skins surface.
