Has anyone started shopping for their kits?

[Gracie168]

Hey !
I don't even wear makeup so I actually don't own any either, so I've been shopping a bit
I'm sorry but I have no idea
Do you learn that in unit B ? I haven't started it yet cause I'm waiting on my kit to finish unit A......

Hey I’m from Sydney nsw and I’ve just started unit B!

[vitalitymua]

Hey everyone. I'm also from Sydney & working my way through Unit B Really struggling with assignment B1 blending (particularly the blush one).

[Gracie168]

Awesome ! I just finished my eyeliner application assigment ( B4 )
Did the tape not work for you ?
Keep practicing, you'll get there, it took me a while and i found it very difficult, but i got there in the end.
Good luck !

[vitalitymua]

The tape definitely helped, thank you for that! I might look at using a pink eyeshadow instead of blush and see if that helps with more pigmentation.... or practice on my boyfriends arm, maybe his skin tone is better

[Gracie168]

I did it on someone else with a brown type blush colour, it worked better than pink.
Let me know how it goes !

[vitalitymua]

Finally I could do the blending assignment that I was happy enough to submit.. Thank you for all the tips!

[Gracie168]

Good work !
You're welcome !

Hi everyone I'm from Western Australia I have trouble in my blending on the arm. And can I use myself as a model for makeup application. Thanks heaps

[JulieAnn]

I found using tape helped control the area I wanted to do the blending of the blush (same as for the eyeshadow blending); so it didn't look so 'smudged' out on the outside area and I used a small blending brush to control the amount of blush that I put down. I also found that doing bit by bit helped with the gradient effect instead of doing a lot at once than blending it out. You can use yourself as a model for your assignments but they do recommend that if your planning on pursuing a career in becoming a pro makeup artist to work on friends/family to get used to working on clients because they have different undertones, eye shapes etc..
GOOD LUCK!!

Hi! I’m from VIC! I’m really struggling with trying to understand different skin tones and how I go about finding the right foundations to mix and match to get the right shade to match to model. But can’t start buying foundations if I can’t read skin tones

[Gracie168]

I am struggling with this too, its very tricky !
