I'm so excited that we've started with our real makeup! Once we started applying it, I noticed how necessary and helpful the color palettes are. It was especially nice during the dress rehearsals for Independence.  I knew what colors I had to mix for my foundation, shadow and highlights, since we had already done them in class. I also have to cover a tattoo on my foot and since my foot is a different color than my face I used the foundation palette.  It was very conducive in helping me find the exact color I needed instead of testing out something different every night.  Below are some pictures of my palettes and then my basic corrective.

I had some trouble covering up the dark circles under my eyes.. I did the best I could!  

P.S.  I took these pictures on my phone so I apologize if they aren't the greatest quality!
