Unit in Brief
Learners will have the opportunity to develop and practise skills in using basic make-up techniques.
Unit Introduction
In this unit, you will learn about the many products used in make-up application, along with the equipment required and techniques used. You will learn about different skin types as well as the main structures and functions of the skin. This knowledge will help you to make decisions about the right make-up to use on a client. You will be supervised applying basic make-up to create day, evening or special occasion looks.
This unit will help you, under supervision, to develop skills and knowledge about make-up techniques and applications. You will be able to show your creative side and work independently to create new looks. A make-up treatment can be something that is performed on its own, or as part of a whole grooming package (such as for a wedding or prom).
The experience gained in this unit will help you to develop practical skills essential for any kind of make-up application. This will form the foundation for future development. The transferable and sector skills you develop in this unit can enable you to progress to further learning. They will also support you in completing the core skills units in Group A of the qualification.
