Maquillage Professionnel Day 5 : Maquillage du Soir

Last night we learned about evening makeup. Ms.Yuki challenged us to play with colors during our hands-on work. I was really apprehensive at first because I don't feel confident at all working with vibrant colors and well, I'm such a neutral loving girl! For this look, I didn't fully let go of my neutral loving ways but I used purple tones with a bit of black to smoke the look out. Baby steps. Hihi

I hope that in the coming days, I'll be brave enough to use really vibrant colors on my models. I worked with Becca again since I only got to do her base on my first day. I'm glad that she was game even though the look required a bit more make up than usual. She even went out with a bunch of colleagues and friends afterwards! Sulit ang make up!

Maquillage Professionnel Day 4: Maquillage du Jour

I had an awesome time learning about day makeup. Today,our class also met Sir Mio, one of MP's respected instructors. Day make up's all about looking fresh,fresh,fresh! Bright eyes, sheer foundation, flushed cheeks and subtle definition. I learned a lot from Sir Mio and I'm glad that he was quite pleased with my work at the end of the session.

My beyond gorgeous kumare Kat served as my blank canvas for this look. I sort of felt like I was cheating cause she's already a natural head-turner but oh well what can I do... You can't blame me for having such gorgeous friends!!! Hahaha! But kidding aside, I was lucky enough to have worked with Kat who already had such a fresh look, even without makeup! 

I'll let the photos do the talking now! ;-)

Maquillage Professionnel Day 3: Eye and Lip Shape Correction

Today we learned about different eye and lip shapes. We were taught 2 eye makeup techniques that can help correct certain eye shapes. Also, we learned how to edit or enhance one's natural lip shape.

I'm so glad that we were finally allowed to do a full face! Laurine, one my best girl friends modeled for me. She's already naturally pretty so I just wanted to enhance her features. I did the "open banana" (I honestly don't know why they call it that :-|) technique on her eyes so as to make them appear bigger and brighter.

Photos coming right up! :-)

Maquillage Professionnel Day 2: Contour and Brows

Today was all about facial shape and eyebrow correction. We had an in depth discussion on the different facial shapes; how to contour them and the proper way of "doing" brows. I asked a bunch of questions and I'm so glad that our instructor, Ms. Mikee was so accommodating. Can I just say! I love her so much already. She's so kalog and pa-girl! I love it! There's never a dull in moment class because of her!

I super enjoyed working on my very good friend Trina. She had the ideal Oval face shape so I only did a bit of contouring on her (cheeks,jaws,temples,forehead,nose). I really got to practice doing brows 'cause Trina's were quite short and sparse. I loved that it was a bit of a challenge for me and I'm actually quite happy with the way her brows turned out!

The Sculpting Kit and Waterproof Eyebrow Corrector were definitely the stars of the show! Loved those products and I personally think they're must-haves!

Okay, enough of my babbling. I'll just let the pictures do the talking!

Products used (in order):

• MUFE HD Microperfecting Primer
• MUFE 5 Camouflage Cream Palette (Orange, Green & Purple) - 
  

  for under eye circles,red spots and old blemishes
