Once this was done, we watched a demo and then came back and began by mixing up concealers and foundations to make the perfect highlight shade for the person we were working on. I then applied this to the areas that 'stuck out'- the nose,cheekbones and centre of forehead. I learnt how important it was to really get to know the face and find where all the important bones are before going in and highlighting. Once I was happy with the highlight, I took one of the more grey toned concealers and used it to gradually contour the face, applying very small amounts and blending with my fingers. I did this in the hollow of the cheeks, down the nose and on the temples. I then lightly went over this with some bronzer to make it softer and to warm up the face. Then to finish off I gently pressed the translucent powder onto the face.
I was pleased with the end result as this is a skintone I have never worked on before!
Health and safety:
- Before I do anything, I make sure that my brushes have been sufficiently cleaned with Isopropyl alcohol to prevent bacteria spreading.
- I covered my work station with couch roll to ensure that I had a clean space to put all my products and tools onto.
- I covered my model with a gown so that no product would fall onto her clothing.
- Before starting the makeup I asked my model if she had any skin diseases or medical conditions that i should be aware of. I also asked if she was wearing contact lenses, as some products will irritate them.
- I washed my hands with soap and water to prevent bacteria transferring.
- I decanted any product onto the back of my clean hand, to prevent double dipping and again preventing any bacteria from the models face being transferred into my make up.
