Consultation and Cleansing

Before we started cleansing we been given consultations sheets, they clearly state what we need to do before cleansing somebody's face, after, and just stating general guidelines. The consultation is crucial part in the make up industry, if after assessing client's face it has a lot of infections or just generally in very bad condition the make up can not be applied at all. Need to pay attention to blemishes, scars, hairs, to see how you can cover it best. Consultations are every important due to hygiene, comfort of the client and also the make up artist, so no contamination and hygiene problems appear.

Evaluation:-

I enjoyed learning new techniques of how to remove make up from someone else's face  how to control the cotton pad, which direction to go which was from the bottom then up. I found it very difficult working in the eye area to make sure I don't put too much pressure and remove every single trace of eye make up without irritating the eyes.
