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.

Familiarize yourself with the tools and techniques of using such sets. Learn to blend and practice those strokes. Turn to instructional videos or attend live demonstrations to broaden your understanding of its fundamentals. Play around with it using your imagination. Make use of costumes and other accessories such as wigs to add details to your masterpiece.

Organize your kit. Have a specific container for each item. Segregate it to powder, creams (including lipsticks and mascara) and tools. Having 3 different bags may work but a bag with multiple pockets will do. This will lessen time in searching for your eyeliner or lipstick can be frustrating. This is also a good habit to have to prevent product contamination. Clean brushes and other tools before storing it.

Do not forget to wash your hands before engaging in this craft. Use disposable pads and clean brushes as applicators. Invest on a mixing palette if you plan to use share same kit with a group. This also prevents contamination. Never share your tools or cosmetics with others.

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.
