Colour corrective makeup.



This shows my attempt at colour corrective makeup. I tried to take in as much information as I could on this lesson as I have always struggled to do this.
My client had lot of freckles but a great complexion. She also had a good skin tone so there was not alot of colour corrective to do on this particular model.
Even though she didn't really  have any dark circles under eyes but thought I would try to have a practice at the makeup. This turned out to be disasterous and I put far too much makeup on the under eye weighing it down and making her now look like she had dark circles that weren't there in the first place. I did put myself down a bit about this and I thought it was worse than it was. I was then reassured by my tutor that it wasn't as bad as I was making out.
But the make up wasn't all bad. I had good coverage and think I applied the makeup well(minus the eyes). I would definately like to have a good with someone with dark circles and see what I can do with my makeup then. I also need to purchase a colour corrective makeup palette/kit.
After doing this makeup I then went on to turn the make up into a day makeup which I was very proud of. I think I blended the eyes well and definately achieved the look I was going for.

I probably could of gone darker on the eyes and maybe added some eyeliner to finish the look off as well as some lipstick. Some nude or natural would of been good just to tie all the make up together.
