Perfect365 Make-Up Review

Perfect365 is a make-up editing app on the iPhone and Android that is amazing for applying different makeup looks on a photo of yourself or enhancing a photo of yourself with make-up on, you can soften the skin, contour the face to make it look slimmer, and change the hair. 


Beauty Products to live by

The beauty product my group agree that we all love was The Sleek Eyebrow Kit which costs £8.49 from Superdrug. Although this is costly to some it does last a long time and I personally think it is worth the money and it lasts all day. 

As a class we the beauty product we agreed one was Simple Moisturiser which costs £1.95 in Superdrug which is a good deal as it usually costs £3.99. This is good to use before applying foundation in the morning and after removing make-up to hydrate the skin.

College thoughts so far...

1. What were your expectations on starting the course?
I honestly didn't know what to expect when starting the Media Make-Up Course, I didn't expect hair to be a massive element of the course.

2. What are your initial thoughts on West College Scotland and the Media make up course?
I know that the college was my local college and it always had a good reputation, so far I feel like I've eased well into the course, everyone who is doing Media Make-Up although we all have different personalities we all love make-up and all the girls are friendly which is a good atmosphere.

3. What is your funniest moment of college life so far?
Having cheap and cheerful instant face lifts when doing the wig wraps, honestly don't want to look at cling film for a good couple of months though.

4. What is the most interesting thing you have learned or learned how to do so far?
Creating bruises and burns, it's easier than what I expected and I love the messy, gory side of things.

5. Who is your make up idol?
Jamie Genevieve is just fantastic at make-up, and I would love to leave college and become as successful as she is becoming.

6. Why do you want to be a MUA?
I've always wanted to work in film either acting or as a make-up artist, I love horror movies and halloween, so I would love to become a special effects make-up artist for big films and TV shows.
