We always take before and after pictures in class. Personally, I think it's a really good idea. It has helped me a lot because I get to look at my work. Kung may hindi ba pantay, or kung may mali ba. Kung mas mahaba ba ang right eyebrow sa left. And I also love going through those pictures at night and be like "Mali to" "Hindi pwede to. Mali ang pag contour." "Medyo peachy ang base ang nagamit ko sa mukha niya"
This was my first base application. We were mixing colors trying to do base matching. Meet Ate Zel!
The base was obviously too light for her skin, but it was my first try so.. And I never really learned base matching before I started attending this school. I always get help at make up counters whenever I buy foundations or bb creams. But I didn't fail at my fourth try though!
I did it on my classmate, Alex.
Perfect base match. Perfect concealing. Perfect :) I'm really proud of my work here. My first three attempts were embarrassing. So much has happened in our first 2 weeks let's just skip to the brows. We were taught how to groom eyebrows (shaving and plucking), where the inner brow should start and where the outer brow should end, where the arch base and arch peak should be placed. It sounds easy but it's actually a challenge too. But like they said, practice makes perfect! My first brow grooming I did it on my classmate, Jam.
I've already groomed her eyebrows before I could even take a before picture. I tend to forget to take pictures sometimes, not sure if it's because I'm too excited to start or if I'm really just forgetful. My work on her eyebrows was ~okay~ it wasn't perfect. But I'm practicing!
So after a week we stopped practicing on each other's faces and looked for models. We can either bring our own models or look for models. I couldn't bring a model with me so I looked for models (in Market Market). It was hard at first, approaching people you don't know, and people getting approached by a person they don't know. But with the help of my classmates we made it happen! Looking for models/ fishing can be really fun.
My very first model was, well.. I forgot her name. But she's a student. Most of the models that are willing to get their make up done were students. I did a natural make up on her inspired from this picture.
I wish the colors I used on her face didn't got washed out, I was only using my phone.
My thought on my work? It turned out pretty good, she told me she loved it and she kept smiling which made me feel really happy. And I loved my work on her too, I'm satisfied.. except for the brows. Something seems off, maybe because it didn't turned out as defined as I imagined it on my head.
My second model was a student from STI, and yes I forgot her name again. The look I did on this girl was inspired from this photo.
I didn't own any golds or nudes I can use on her face so I just chose whatever I had on my kit that is the most similar with the cheek and lip color. I could've contoured her cheeks more and nose. But overall, I loved my work here as well.
as you can see I'm not posting some of my works that I didn't like because .. it's really embarrassing. But I'm PRACTICING PRACTICING PRACTICING. Especially in the eyebrow part, and the contouring of the face and nose ((sometimes cheek color application too)). But other than that I don't think I have anymore problems especially in the eye part. I love eye shadows, I love mixing colors, I just have to explore more! Create more!
