APPLYING MAKE-UP

Because of the distance and movement, the make-up for the ballerina is exaggerated.

Upper eyelash edge: Pull the outer corner of the eye a little upwards, let the eyes be closed and place with the brush the eyeliner against the upper eyelash from the inner corner to the outer side. Do not start too close to the inner corner of the eye and stop at the outer corner of the eye. If you want to draw the eyeliner line further, do this while the eyes are open and do not pull the skin.

Lower eyelash edge: Apply the eyeliner from the outer corner towards the inner side, but leave the inner corner of the eye free. If necessary, fade with a dry brush.

Eyeshadow
Take the required colour of eye shadow out using a brush or applicator. Then you run the eye shadow over your hand to test the colour intensity. By playing with light and dark eye shadow colours you can give the eye an ideal shape. The general rule is: light brings things into prominence, dark makes them recede. In principle, you apply a light colour to the upper eyelid, a dark colour in the eye fold and a very light colour to the eyebrow arch (highlight). Apply the light colour first using the applicator and touch up with a latex sponge. Dark colours (for example in the fold of the upper eyelid) you apply with a brush.

Modelling
Use the Powder-Rouge Brush to take out Grimas Eyeshadow/Rouge in the desired colour. Put the powder brush vertically and tap with the hand to disperse the powder in the hairs so the powder does not just end up on the tips of the hairs. Smooth the colour out with the flat side of the brush, so do not dab it on. Apply the blush high on the cheeks and obliquely.

Lips
Draw with a pencil to draw the outline of the lips. Work from the outside inwards for the upper lip, and from the inside outwards for the lower lip. Use the pencil to correct the contours and the lipstick will then also not run so quickly

Get the subject to tighten their mouth (smiling) to make it full. Draw thin dashes with the pencil and smear them inwards using a brush. Keep the mouth stretched while you apply the lipstick. Take the Lipstick (Pure) out with a spatula and apply it with a lip brush. First colour the middle of the lips and then colour the edges, working from the outside inwards. Dab the result with a tissue to matt it off.

For a fixating lipstick that has a glossy effect at the same time, you can apply Pearl Eye Shadow over the lipstick.

REMOVING THE PRODUCTS

You remove the make-up with Grimas Cleansing Cream or Multi Remover Pure. Do not use Afschmink, as this contains waxes and oils that actually cause the Cake Make-up to adhere to the skin. Cleanse the skin afterwards with cleansing lotion.
