I got a B+!!!

[Timakakes]

Hey everyone My name is Fatima and I started the QC course for Makeup Artistry about a month ago and I got my first grade. A B+!. Although that's great I'm a bit of an over achiever and I'm shooting to get a A+ the next go round. I'm learning so much and although people would say I apply really good I want to be better. If you guys have any tips as to how to apply eye shadow more precisely and easier ways to do so that would be great. I love learning new tricks of the trade. I will upload pictures of applications to my self. Please critique I love fixing my mistakes because it will make me an better MUA. Good luck to all those that are on the journey to certification.

Hey Fatima!! I'm Dakota. I joined a couple months ago. I already know quite a bit about makeup artistry. Answering your question on eyeshadow application. Working with the QC brush roll. If you want light pigmentation, I would go with a small fluffy blending brush and tapping any excess shadow off so it doesn't come off as really heavy. If you want a lot of pigmentation. I would firstly go with one of the small shadow flat brushes and tapping a little of the shadow off the brush and applying it to wanted area and then taking a blender brush and smoothing out the harsh edges. Also a tip on strong pigment. If you want a certain colour to pop, o would put shadow on the brush and spray it with a little water or setting spray which activates more pigment. I hope this helped. See ya, from Hamilton Ontario Canada!!!!!!

Hey Dakota ,

Sorry for the late response. I actually learned that water/ primer trick to enhance eye shadow pigment at the MAC store. They had an event and I got my eyes done for free and got a free lesson as well. Thanks for your help as well. I have gotten better and I'm working more on others because it really is different than doing your own face. Thanks again!
