Some Suggestions In Using Stage Makeup Kits For Schools

By Edward Cooper


Spread that Hollywood magic. Create life-like characters with stage makeup kits for schools to make plays more realistic. This type of maquillage is also great for costume-based parties. Find one online or your local craft store.

Research is vital in finding the right set. Browse online for reviews or simply read its label before buying one. It should match your skin type to avoid irreparable damages. Consider purchasing something light and non-toxic if using it on kids under 12 years old. Remember that they do have sensitive skin thus consulting a dermatologist is also highly recommended.

Using such maquillage demands patience and practice. Every blend or stroke can affect its outcome. You may want to watch related instructional videos online or attend demonstrations to learn its basics. Apply it occasionally to master the technique. Personalize each look with a little imagination. Add in some accessories such as wigs and costumes to make it more realistic.

Bags with multiple pockets are great in organizing your tools and cosmetics. This enables you to easily find what you are looking for in the least possible time. This also prevents germs among your tools and makeup. Have the habit of washing brushes and sponges before keeping it away. Use baby shampoo to remove excess cream or powder from its bristle and pad. Rinse it thoroughly and air dry.

Observe proper hygiene when using these cosmetics. Wash your hands thoroughly before each application. Use disposable pads and clean brushes in the process. Scoop a small amount on a mixing palette to avoid dipping these applicators twice on the same lipstick or powder. This practice will also prevent bacteria from spreading especially when sharing the same kit with a group. Failure to do so can contaminate the product and result to acne or allergic reactions. You can also get these reactions when using expired items. Discontinue use if the makeup smells bad or it looks stale.

Cosmetics do expire. Discontinue use if it looks moldy or smells awkward. Also note how long you have had it in your kit. Throw away lip liners and lipsticks after a year. Do the same for eyebrow pencils, liquid latex, cleansers and face paints. Dispose sponges and mascaras after 6 months. Liquid foundation, moisturizers and concealers can last for 2 years. Eye shadow, powders and blush is included in this list.

Theatrical makeup is heavier than daily cosmetics. It last longer under the heat of stage lights. Clean and moisturize the area where you want to apply it. Evenly distribute it to make it look natural but do this after skin testing. Stop using if sudden itchiness occurs. Failure to do so may result to inflammation or pimples. Have a topical ointment ready for rashes in case it starts to show after use.

Most tenured performers use oil-based products because it last longer and put off sweat from occurring during a play. However it demands more time to remove. Do not allow it to submerge in your pores. It can result to pimples and skin irritations if not attended immediately. Using baby wipes and cold creams do not completely remove it from your pores. Wash it off completely with soap and water. Tone and moisturize the skin afterwards.
