Result!
My sisters girlfriend has told me about her friend who is looking for a face painter for childrens parties, its 2 hours Saturday and Sunday and they pay is awesome! can`t wait to add that to my portfolio.
This week at college.
Monday was mainly a catch up day, so I modelled for one of the students and in turn she will model for me for my theatre assessment. Then on Wednesday morning some of are class had the opportunity to work with children aged 10/11 from a local school. We had to show them how to do a special effect cut on are hands which was handy for me as I have been offered a small job doing face painting for parties in January with children. Now today we are just doing a catch up day as this for some maybe are last day in essential skills.

Makeup for skin conditions.
Every makeup brand has a product that will provide a great result for lots of skin conditions, its all about finding that brand that will suit you. From price, effective result and lasting effect. People with acne will find a liquid based foundations to have a great result and brands such as the body shop provide excellent products for skin types that may be very sensitive to chemicals or skins that are allergic to chemicals and products within other makeup brands. There are so many products on the market right now for all different skin types that finding one to suit you and your condtion is relatively easy.
The History Of Wigs.
Wigs have dated back as far back as the Egyptians as a indication of a persons status as well as their role in society and politics. With a risk of infestation of lice this was also a reason to shave your hair and wear wigs. There where also other benefits to shaving off your hair and wearing wigs such as having a bald head in scorching hot weather would be much more comfortable than having a full head of hair but also wearing a wig would protect a bald head from being sun burnt. Egyptians though preferred to wear wigs resulting in there creation of human, sheep wool and vegetable fibre wigs, depending on there social status. Female wigs where decorated with different hair accessories such as hair-rings and ivory ornaments and have braids. The more fancier the wigs the higher status you where.
Although there where other societies and cultures who wore wigs, Egyptians are well known for there makeup choices and wig creations. Today wigs are used in pop culture, fashion and performance. Depending on your budget and reason there are cheap synthetic wigs for such things as halloween and school plays and then real hair wigs made for movie stars and performers which can cost hundreds.

The four capacities of Curriculum for Excellence (CfE)
The four capacities of Curriculum for Excellence are to enable each child or young person to be a successful learner, a confident individual, a responsible citizen and an effective contributor.
In college I use the four capacities by trying my best in each class and setting myself goals in achieving a positive result in class. Also building up confidence with others by interacting with other students and doing the makeup skills being taught on models and other students in and out of the college. I am responsible I feel in the sense that I treat the college with respect and abide by the college rules and being a effective contributor by getting involved in college events.
I feel the four capacities would be carried out in the same way in each class. Successful learning would be carried out by listening to what the lecture is saying, watching the skills being handed out and carrying out each task effectively and correctly. Working with others, models and other students in and out the college will build up confidence with working with strangers and the best way to approach different personalities and backgrounds. The skills being shown and then practised will build up confidence in your practical skills too. Being a responsible citizen in class will consist of looking out for each other and taken care of the college equipment, cleaning up after yourself and being responsible for finishing assessments and tasks carried out in class. Keeping your area of work tidy and cleaning equipment after use and getting involved in the activities such as fund raising activities if a sure way of being a effective contributor.
My overall experience so far at James Watt College has been great. I have learned so much so far and has made me grow more as a person and learned to take responsibility.

Recreating Halloween Chracters.
Bride of Frankenstein.
For me to recreate the Bride of Frankenstein I would first of all apply a white foundation on the face and to the rest of the exposed skin. Then I would use a translucent powder on the face to Matt out the skin. I would then use false eyelashes to enhance the eyes, black contact lenses and a black lipstick. For the eyebrows I would just use a simple eyebrow pencil (black) and draw a thin brow line but point it upwards above the temple. The scars under the jawline. I would just use special effect makeup. When it comes to the hair I would either just use a wig or if I was on a budget I would backcomb the hair and crimp to create a frizz effect and pull the hair away from the face. For colour I would just use a black spray if the hair is not already dark and use white spray for the white streaks of the hair and do a finger wave for the white streaks. The outfit would either just be a costume or a long white dress.

First I would use a primer on the skin then use a pale foundation to create porcelain skin and then use a powder that will highlight and give a healthy glow to the skin. Then use Benefits high beam on the brows and cheeks bone to highlight those areas even more. I would use subtle eyelashes and subtle eyeshadow and highlighter to brighten the eyes for a standout effect without looking like the model if wearing alot of eye makeup and to open up the eyes I would put with eyeshadow on the outside of the corners of the eyes to make them appear larger. I would just use a light eyebrow pencil and use a light pink blusher. For the lips I would just use a natural pink shade. For the hair if the models hair is dark then I would just apply a wig but of the models hair is very light almost white blonde then I would just back all of the hair to create a sort of Afro effect. I would just create a floaty white and green dress, nearly floor length with fabrics from a local fabric store and have some vintage heels, nude stockings and pearls.
Charlie Chaplin.
I would just Matt out the skin with white foundation and powder and give depth to the cheeks bones by using grey face paint and blending, to try and capture that black and white theme. I would use a back eyebrow pencil and make the eyebrows black and thick and use black eyeshadow under the eyes and a little mascara to open up eyes, plus use very dark brown contact lenses and apply a Charlie Chaplin moustache. For the hair I would slick it back with hair gel and have the model wear a bowler hat and a all black suit, white shirt, black bow and shoes.
