Things You Have To Observe When Using Stage Makeup Kits For Schools

By Edward Cooper


Special effects are no longer limited in the big screens. Nowadays you can create Hollywood magic with stage makeup kits for schools to produce those life-like characters for your amateur plays or parties. It is readily available in your local craft store or online shop.

Conduct a brief research on a set before purchase. Read reviews or find one and read its content. It should match your skin type. Kids with sensitive for example deserve a non-toxic and light makeup to make sure it does not breakout. You may want to check with a dermatologist is 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.

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 different from ordinary cosmetics. It is formulated to last longer under the brutal stage lights. Always clean and moisturize the area where you want it applied. Have the habit of dubbing a small amount behind the ear before each application. Discontinue use if sudden redness or itchiness occurs. You may want to have an ointment ready in case rashes start to appear after use.

Most tenured performers are intricate with details when purchasing such item. They prefer oil-based products that are highly effective of putting off sweat during the play. However it demands more effort to remove. It can clog pores that often results to skin irritations that is sometimes irreversible. Do not rely on baby wipes or cold creams alone from removing it. Wash it away co with soap and water then use a cleanser to remove excess dirt and moisturize afterwards.
