Practical: Base and Concealing

Equipment:

·      Cleanser

·      Toner

·      Moisturiser

·      Cotton pads

·      Cotton buds

·      Foundation

·      Concealer

·      Powder

·      Blush

·      Brushes

·      Firstly, the skin is assessed in order to prepare the skin using cleanser, toner and moisturiser.

·      Check skin type to determine which foundation to use. For men, it is better to use tinted moisturiser due to their skin being more textured (stubble, etc).

·      Match foundation to skine tone. Test on jaw line to see if colours match. Use a spatula and mix on back of hand. DON’T DOUBLE DIP!

·      Apply base starting in the centre of the face, working outwards using brush.

·      Cover entire face, right up to lash line, nostrils and ears. DON’T FORGET NECK!

·      Conceal after foundation base has been applied, not before.

·      Apply powder to t-zone with puff, rest of the face with brush. (If using grease blusher, apply before powder. If using powder blusher, apply powder before)
