Technique and routine:

1. First I cleansed, toned and moisturised Erin's face ready for makeup application.
2. I then applied the satin primer
3. I then applied the white base with my foundation brush and buffed it in with my kabuki brush.
4. I then applied a thin layer of translucent powder all over the face to set the base. 
5. I then marked out the shape around the eye that I was filling with eyeshadow with my precision brush(at the top as the bottom was to be blended out).
6. I then used my large shadow brush to fill this space with the bronze shadow.
7. I then used my blending brush to blend out the bottom
8. I checked the symmetry of each side and corrected any mistakes.
9. I then went over the lid of each eye with the rust coloured shadow blending as I went
10. Using the black I filled in the crease to create some dimension to the eye. I also went under the lash line.
11. Erin then applied her own mascara to get right down to the root of her lashes.
12. I then began brushing the eyebrow hair (creating symmetry with each brow) upward. This was to make the eyebrow hair white and to make them look longer.
13. I then applied the white supra colour to the lashes.
14. I then filled in Erin's lips with the gold eye cream and went over it with the lipgloss.

Outcome and thoughts:

This was our second practise and I felt it went really well. I feel that the first time I took a long time to get the right coverage and to get the right technique but this time I felt like I made much better time. I feel that once I understood the technique needed I could then manage my time better. I feel confident that I with another practise I can make good time whilst keeping my technique good quality for the assessment.
