DEMONSTRATIONS
1. NO MAKEUP LOOK
BLUSH BRUSH
This needs to be wide enough to cover the apple of the cheek. The bristles should be soft, natural hair with beveled and curved edges.
CONCEALER BRUSH
This should have firm but soft bristles that aren't too hard or scratchy, since the brush will be used on the delicate skin under the eyes.
Look for a brush with glossy synthetic hairs, as these slip along the skin. The ends of the bristles should be tapered to help you place
concealer in hard-to-reach spots, such as the inner corners of the eyes, and apply stick foundation to cover any redness around the
nose.
BRONZER BRUSH
This is thicker and fuller than a blush brush and has a flat profile. It is designed for sweeping and pressing bronzer over cheeks,
forehead, nose and chin to provide natural-looking warmth to the skin.
EYELASH COMB
This has straight, stiff (often plastic), fine teeth and is designed to separate lashes immediately after applying mascara (while the lashes
are still wet). Mascara wands work just as well and are more convenient.
EYELASH CURLER
Look for a basic metal version with rubber pads. An eyelash curler shapes lashes into a natural looking curl. Replace pads regularly. To
avoid breakage, always curl the lashes before applying mascara.
FACE BRUSH
A natural or synthetic fluffy, curved brush that can be used to apply bronzer, blush or powder
FOUNDATION BRUSH
Synthetic bristles in this full, flat-edged brush deposit just the right amount of foundation onto the skin.
POWDER PUFF
A puff that's about the size of your palm. Designed to press powder onto the face to lock foundation in place. Can be hand washed or
tossed in the dishwasher (at least once a week).
LIP BRUSH
Firm, long bristles come to a slightly pointed tip. This brush allows for the precise placement of lip color. Bristles can be either synthetic
or natural.
SPONGES
Disposable sponges are invaluable. Wedge-shaped ones are great for applying foundation around the nose and other hard-to-reach
places, as well as for blending. Don't bother washing them-toss dirty ones and take a new one. Higher-quality sponges can be washed and
reused many times.
POWDER BRUSH
A natural-hair, large, fluffy brush with soft bristles that bevel to a slight point (for navigating around1 the nose and under the eyes).
Designed for use with both loose and pressed powders.
TOUCH UP BRUSH
Short, firm, natural-bristled brush used with foundation for spot touch-ups and for hard-to-reach areas around the nose and mouth. This
brush can also be used to touch up concealer and apply eye shadow.
Tip
Using Your Fingers
Nothing beats the warmth of the fingers to blend makeup into the skin. Lipstick can be blotted onto the lips to create a stain effect. Face
cream, balm, or oil rubbed between both palms and then gently pressed onto cheeks adds moisture and a youthful glow to the face.
l use my hands to warm concealers, blend foundation and mix lip shades together. I also use my hands to work makeup into the face so
that the makeup feels like a part of the skin and not like a mask
TWEEZERS
It's well worth investing in a good pair. Tweezers that are angled at the tip are easier to control than those that come to a sharp point.
Always cover tweezers tips with the included rubber cap when they are not in use.
FACIAL SCULPTING
CONTOURING AND HIGHLIGHTING
CONTOURING:
Contouring is done to sculpt the face. It is done where you want to pull back or recede the features or areas. For contouring use colors
that mimic shadows- eg matte, muddy, neutral, deeper tones. The contoured area should look two shades darker than your skin tone.
Matte eye shadows can also be used for contouring. Cream foundations are also good.
Contouring is not for every face shape. This is where you must really study the face shape of the most complimentary look. OVAL is the
ideal face shape. With contouring the idea is to come as close as possible to creating an Oval face.
HIGHLIGHTING:
Highlighting is done to draw attention to certain areas that you want to bring forward.
Highlighting is done with light coloured matte and shimmery product. Apply highlighter to the higher/raised parts of the face, where the
light falls naturally which can be intensified by layering a cream with a high shimmer powder. Most common areas are brow bones
,bridge of nose and cheekbones.
DECOLLETAGE:
Applying highlighter on the collarbones and then contouring on either side really gives definition and flatters the upper area. Be
conscious though if you very thin and boney you do not want to emphasis this. This is where you must know your products regarding if
they are non transferable for outfits etc.
BAKING-
Baking refers to letting translucent powder sit on your face for five to ten minutes, which allows the heat from your face to set your
base foundation and concealer and then dusting it off your face, leaving you with a creaseless, flawless finish.
ILLUMINATING TRIANGLE
If foundation appear dark, you can brighten it by using a foundation/liquid concealer two shades lighter on the forehead, nose bridge,
triangle below the eyes, cupids bow and chin if required.
STROBING
STROBING (Non Contouring)-
Strobing is highlighting without contouring. Focus is on achieving a dewy finish on the high points of the face where the light naturally
hits. It is achieved by mixing illuminating cream, moisturizers or serums to the foundation along with the use of highlighting powder.
DEWY FINISH
ADDING LUMINOSITY INTO FOUNDATION
ADDING LUMINOSITY TO FOUNDATION
Use radiance primer or strobing cream on full face. Add illuminating drops or vanilla/melon pigments to make the foundation dewy and
glowy.
EYEBROW SHAPING
THE EYES AND SPACE
The eye has a balanced proportion of eyelid, crease and brow bone that are all visible when the eyes are open. The balanced eye is also
normally set which means that you can mentally imagine, If there is more space than the third eye, they are considered wide set. To
correct wide set eyes, create the illusion that the eyes are normally set by moving third eye between the two eyes and it fits perfectly
If there is not enough space to fit a third eye, they are considered close set your beginning points closer together. To correct close set
eyes, create the illusion that the eyes are normally set by moving your beginning points further apart.
Beginning point Align the brush vertically with the inner eye corner or edge of the nostril
B.
Highest Point Align the brush vertically with the outer edge of the iris
C.
End pointAlign the brush diagonally with the side of the nose and outer corner of the eye
BROW PENCIL
Should closely match the hair color
Some pencils can leave a greasy finish - if so, set with a an eye shadow powder of the same color
BROW GELS
Keep brow hairs in place
Can use hairspray on your brow brush and comb through to keep them in place
EYEBROW HAIR
Eyebrow hair is very sensitive to injury so over tweezing can result in permanent damage to the hair follicle. Hair may begin to appear
thinner, finer or stop growing altogether. Hair removal methods will do one of three things:
MATTE
