Natural Day Looks A natural make-up refers to applying make-up in a way that looks like we are not wearing make-up all over the face, however all blemishes and negative aspects are corrected. This type of look can be used every day, including most social occasions and special events. Typically, the eyes are soft and light with a soft sun kissed look to the cheeks. The lips are usually a soft subtle color as well. mature make-up The intention of the Mature Make-up Workshop is to address the challenges of applying make-up to sophisticated skin. The process is virtually identical to any other make-up application; however we are forced to use far less make-up than in other situations. Older skin creases far more than younger skin and make-up can collect very easily in those creases. Powder must also be used sparingly because powdered surfaces can appear unattractively dehydrated.
Make-up party Invite your friends to a party where you learn to do makeup while having a little fun. This workshop is the perfect introduction to the weekend. Channel your inner-rock star with a new look and be the center of attention.
FLAWLESS FACE This workshop marquees how to apply a flawless face without being able to detect the actual application of make-up. We are focusing on cream base products, but there are many choices for a foundation available. Choosing the right product depends heavily on how much correction is needed and ultimately how much make-up you like to wear. We chose to create our product line around our cream base, because of its versatility and its staying power. The product works extremely well because it provides coverage and can be applied very sheer or heavier if needed without ever looking heavy. CONTOUR AND HIGHLIGHT Highlight and shadow is the foundation of all make-up regardless of what we are using make-up for and in this workshop we will explain how to properly contour the face to create a corrected look that is both aesthetically pleasing and subtle. The process of highlighting and shading with cream and powder products that are blended properly is the key to properly accentuating and defining the face.
PERFECT POUT Learn to apply the perfect lip, whether you want a subtle pout or a bold statement the techniques we will be discussing will enable you to create just about any look. In this workshop there can be a great deal of experimentation with color on the lips and by simply switching out a few colors we create different looks quickly. PERFECT EYEBROW This workshop focuses on the art of eyebrows. Eyebrows have the power to create expression and character to an individual just by altering the placement subtly or drastically. The process starts with the classic eyebrow shape. Then with minor alterations, eyebrows can be groomed classically or to keep up with the trends. The perfect classic eyebrow compliments the eye by framing it without drawing attention away from the natural beauty of the eye. DAY TO NIGHT Make-up is viewed differently between everyday wear and an evening out, thus it should be applied differently. Quite simply, make-up viewed at night needs to be applied more dramatically for it to be seen in a lower light situation. In this workshop we will show how to create a simple yet beautiful every day look and then transform it into an evening look with our focus on using simple techniques to make the quick transition.
