CONCEALING
Apply to cover marks, dark circles or other discolouration on the face.
REMEDIAL CAMOUFLAGE/CORRECTIVE CREAMS
Use as a correcting mechanism to counteract unwanted colours in the skin.
FOUNDATION – SELECTION AND APPLICATION
Foundation provides a smooth, even coloured base over which makeup can be easily applied.
POWDER – SELECTION AND APPLICATION
Powder is used to “set” the foundation and prevent it “creasing” in certain areas on the face. It also helps reduce the shine on skin.

MAKEUP FOR COLOUR PHOTOGRAPHY – FASHION
While there is every opportunity to express your creativity in photographic makeup, you must remember that first and foremost, your client is the photographer/stylists etc
MAKEUP FOR BLACK AND WHITE PHOTOGRAPHY
Precision in makeup application is even more important when applying makeup for black and white photography.
MAKEUP FOR BRIDES
Bridal clients are a special type of client. Their brief to you will usually be to make them as beautiful as they can be on their special day
FASHION READY TO WEAR VS CREATIVE
Catwalk makeup generally falls into one of two categories – Standard Catwalk (sometimes called Conservative Catwalk), or Creative Catwalk.
MATURE AGE
Makeup on a mature age face must not be applied too heavily as it can look quite overwhelming. It is best to keep your design neutral and remember that in this case, less is more.
