Class Notes & Recap

Brushes needed

  • Natural bristle buffing brush for Bare Minerals Powder. Flat Kabuki brushes are great for buffing powder. (Morphe was discontinued)

  • Highlight brush for highlighter and/or setting under the eye. Morphe Brush is fantastic!

  • Dome eyeshadow brush. The set listed below has a great domed shadow brush

  • retractable brush for lipstick and/or concealer. This one is great because it’s double-ended. One side Lipstick and one side concealer for clean ups.

  • Small brush for under the eye. This is a great set for eyes! since you use shadow as liner, this angle brush is ideal.

Products needed

  • Banana powder for under eyes. This is a great drug store one. Banana Light by Makeup Revolution Its a tad lighter than the one we used so it’ll be more forgiving.

  • Sunscreen compatible with makeup. I LOVE this one! La Roche-Posay spa 50

  • Yellow corrector for cheeks. I used the Seint Y1 Demi Corrector on you. Comes in a tin to throw in your purse or put in a palette.

  • Slightly lighter peach corrector may be more forgiving. Seint Demi Corrector O1

  • Skin-colored (ish) eye shadow for blending eyes. Seint Cupcake Eyeshadow is a great matte finish.

  • Dollar store cosmetic containers for mixed lipsticks. Something like these that I use in touch up kits.

Notes

  • Combine liquid lipstick with lip balm or gloss to use what you’ve got. Can be dabbed on cheeks for blush too.

  • Place the peach corrector precisely where the discoloration is and tap in. Melt it into the skin. No corrector where there is no discoloration. A slightly lighter peach would be easier to blend and a better color for winter when you are most fair.

  • Keep Lumi product for days when you’re not going to wear makeup.

  • Spray setting spray on your brush to make a shimmer shadow more intense. Like a day to night bump up.

Application Notes

  • Wait 10 min minimum after skincare to begin makeup

  • Primers with no dimethicone. The Pearl highlighter is great all over the face to keep blending easy

  • Wait 5 min after primer to start makeup

  • Swipe foundation, don’t press or rub it in. Press with finger if trouble blending

  • Blend Contour/Bronzer up on the cheekbone. Make sure you apply right at the hairline

  • Bring Highlighter in a “C” around the outside of the eye, around the brow bone

  • Can use highlighter under the brow bone, right over the iris

  • Use same brush for bronzer and blush, but a separate one for highlighter

  • Use highlighter on eye lid on a no-makeup day to open eyes

  • Blend chin contour down the neckline

  • Apply the crease color with brows relaxed and eye looking straight forward. Trace lightly before buffing the shadow. Can look down to expose your lid vs raising brows.

  • Use skin colored shadow or setting powder for blending eyeshadow better

  • Sweep a small line of shadow under the eye, ending at the end of the lashes

  • Keep blush from the outside of the iris, going up cheekbone

  • Use setting spray all over face before blending the face
