Practise- In the Role of the Make up Artist

Need:

Cleanser

Toner

Glue

Primer

powder

Ultra foundation palette

Viva brilliant colour medley matte palette

Lip rouge mini palette

Illamasqua neutral palette

Step 1: using the glue block out the eyebrows, powder them down. Using the smallest amount R21 from the supra colour palette, place on top of the blocked brow and powder again. 

Step 2: prime the rest of the face to create an even base

Step 3: using a blend of G177 and OB2 from the ultra foundation palette cover the brows and rest of the face, don’t forget to blend out into the hairline, the ears and the neck.

Step 4: using Obsidian from the neutral palette and an angled brush create a line from the curve of the nose outwards to above the brow. Make sure this line is dark.

Step 5: using a mac blending brush blend out this colour.

Step 6: once this is blended out enough start to blend in Caraway from the viva brilliant colour medley. Blend this outwards until you get to half of the line.

Step 7: using LC52 from the lip rouge mini palette, paint the lips.

Step 8: using obsidian from the neutral palette contour the cheeks and blend the line so it isn’t so harsh.

Due to my partner going home ill for a week I practised her final look on myself. We had made some minor changes to the look after a discussion about certain aspects. For example we changed the base from white to a skin tone foundation base as we felt the look duplicated the black swan with the white base. Once practising the new design I sent the look to my partner and she was happy with the outcome. I feel that I need to practise blocking eyebrows a little more before I do the final assessment but other than that I am happy with the look.
