My time in college has been an enjoyable experience and I have learned new skills and met new people. The class I'm in  this year is good and everyone gets on which creates a good  environment to work in. The lectures are really good at teaching us a alot about make up. I'm updating the basic skills I have when it comes to  Make-up. I wasn't that confident about meeting new people. But as the class has a good environment which makes it easier to talk to new people.

halloween characters

 IT
I chose the clown from IT because I think that it would be good because it is a simple clown and you could challenge yourself by adding in some more details.

 trick or treat
I chose this look because I think it would be hard to re-create because you need to make it look as if the persons face is decomposing  need to make it look as if they have a sack over their head.

lobster
I chose a lobster because it is not the normal look for Halloween you would paint the face red and add on a few wee dark lines to make it look like the shell.

Different skin types

If you have a client with sensitive skin you need to use a powder and not a liquid because it is less likely to cause problems for the client. Don't use waterproof cosmetics because when it gets taken off it can also remove sebum, the oily substance made by the sebaceous gland in the skin. You should throw out old cosmetics because the old make-up could become spoiled or contaminated. Use black-coloured eyeliner pencil, mascara and use a eyebrow fillers. Stick to earth tone colours for the eyeshadow, make sure you use products that have a SPF of 15 or more, use products that have no more than 10 ingredients.


If you have a client with oily skin you need to use a oil free foundation, eyeliner and mascara. Use a powder to take the shine away.


If you have a client with dry skin use a liquid foundation, apply small dots and blend it into your skin using a makeup sponge. Concealers that are liquid or creamy suit dry skin. Concealers can be used to hide birthmarks, dark spots, pimples and scars. Do not apply concealer under the eyes as it might highlight the dark circles. For dry skin makeup, choose a concealer that is a shade lighter than the foundation you use. Select creamy eye shadows and eyeliner. Use mascara and brow cosmetics of your choice. Powder and cheek stains do not suit dry skin type. Use a balm or salve. Over this, apply lip gloss or moisturizing lipstick.

Fantasy make up

The Little Red Riding Hood
You could do a basic make-up or you could be a bit more arty and try do
a more dramatic look .


  Avatar
You would use blue face and body paints to do the colour and you would use
prosthetics for the ears then you would add the costume.


Alice in Wonderland
You would use face paints to make the eyes and the lips the shape and colour
and you would use make-up to do the rest of the look.

history of make up

From the copper and lead ore that the ancient Egyptians used to create the world's first cosmetics to the scientifically advanced products of today that can do everything from hide pores, smooth complexions, and turn the pale green of your eyes a vivid shade of emerald, makeup has been an integral part of humankind for thousands of years. Over the centuries, women used burnt matches to darken their eyes, berries to stain their lips and young boys' urine to fade their freckles. They even swallowed ox blood in some misguided attempt to improve their complexions.

Women throughout history put their health at risk with many of their homemade cosmetics. In some cultures, for example, women used arsenic, lead, mercury, and even leeches to give themselves the pale appearance deemed beautiful in the old days. Thankfully, we've come a long way from the days of using toxic and deadly mixtures to enhance our looks.

Today's multimillion dollar cosmetic industry must meet strict government regulations about what it can and cannot include in products and must follow safe manufacturing guidelines. Today, the most serious injury you're likely to receive from your cosmetics is an irritation or a rash from using a product that's too harsh for your skin. Yet, despite decades of safety testing and a safety record unparalleled in many industries, there are many myths circulating about the dangers of cosmetic ingredients.

                                the criminal minds cast
I chose the criminal minds cast because I like how the make up is done for them and how it looks as if they are on a catwalk

  

                               Johnny Deep 

I chose Johnny Deep because of the way that he came up with most of the mad hatter look. 

I like the look because of the way the it draws you in to the whole feel of the movie and I like the colours      
because it is not what you would expect for the movie.

Jennifer Grey

I chose Jennifer because I like the way she wears her make-up and she is a really good actor.
