I'm considering doing a professional make-up course in Dublin, Ireland and just need a rough idea how much i could be expecting to pay for a full kit with primaraly say MAC products?Can anyone give me an idea of how much a full professional make-up kit would cost?
it depends what you mean by a full make-up kit. just the brushes will set you back a good few hundred. i would say around 拢300 if you want mainly mac brushes. you will need:
BLUSH BRUSH:
never use the brush that comes in the blush compacts. those tiny little brushes won't do anything but leave stripes of colour across the face, which is never a good look. look for a blush brush that is round in shape and wide enough to cover the apple of your cheek, where you want to deposit the colour.
EYELINER BRUSH:
an eyeliner brush should be thin and flat. i would suggest two different kinds: a thin, pointed brush which allows you to draw a thin line, and a brush that's more straight across allows for a thicker line and also helps in creating a smokey look.
EYE SHADDOW BRUSH:
shadow brushes should be soft and full. i also suggest that you get rid of those skimpy little sponge applicators that come in shadow compacts. there are three basic shadow brushes: a smaller one that can be used to cover smaller spaces like the lid, a larger one that could be used to apply a ';wash of colour'; across the entire eye area and could also be used to blend color softly, and a crease brush which is used to apply a darker contour of color in the crease of the eyelid.
EYEBROW BRUSH:
eyebrow brushes aren't really necessary, but it's nice to have them if you want a full kit. as we age, it helps to define and darken the brows - it really wakes up your face. an eyebrow brush's bristles should be slanted, hard, and a little scratchy. you use the eyebrow brush to apply a powder shadow to your brows.
POWDER BRUSH:
the powder brush should be the biggest, fluffiest brush in your kit. Such a brush should be able to distribute the powder quite well, without making it look caked on.
LIP BRUSH:
lip brushes are good to have if you want to define your lips or be very precise with your lip colour.
CONCEALER BRUSH:
it's always fine to apply concealer using a fingertip, but applying with a brush designed for this purpose makes it easier to get the concealer exactly where you want it to go.
EYEBROW BRUSH/EYELASH COMB:
these tools are usually combined into a double-sided brush. use the brow brush to smoothe the brows into place. use the eyelash comb to comb out any clumps you got from applying mascara.
mac brushes are generally the best but quite expensive. if you can afford the whole set then definately go for it. ms makeup ones are also good but nothing really comes close to mac.
hope this helps
