One of the greatest tools a makeup artist has is color theory. Being able to actively use the principles of color theory during application makes every artist stronger and more efficient. Color Theory in Flesh Tone is a hands-on workshop that translates color theory into the language of makeup.

In this workshop we revisit the basics of Color Theory, and the principles of color used in makeup application. Learn to translate color into flesh tone using The Flesh Tone Color Wheel™, and determine skin tone, highlight, contour and correction. See how using color theory affects every color choice including foundation, eyeshadow, and lips. In the hands-on portion, students will utilize the “Wheel” together with an included color theory makeup palette, to create foundation, highlight, contour, and corrective colors.

This class has a demonstration and lecture portion followed by a hands-on portion.

All participants will receive The Flesh Tone Color Wheel, “Rescue Palette” 10 Cream Color Makeup, Stainless Steel Palette, and Palette Knife!

Terri Tomlinson is a working makeup artist, educator, and owner of Makeup Training Academy in Dallas. Her most recent creation, The Flesh Tone Color Wheel™, is both a guide and tool for anyone who works with skin, showing you undertone, highlight, contour, analogous and corrective colors for makeup. Along with the wheel, Terri has created a method of working with color theory in skin tones and neutrals.

Careers in Makeup Artistry

We are so proud to have launched our line, ATTN! Beauty, this past year! Our goal was to create professional grade products using clean, natural, and safe ingredients. The first three products we developed, the ATTN! Beauty Trio, were designed to be practical, easy on all skin types, and kit-friendly. Each product serves a purpose, from pre-application all the way to makeup removal.

As a special thank you to our customers, for the rest of 2019 we will include a FREE bottle of ATTN! Makeup Sanitizer Mist with all purchases over $50 at the Pro Shop! Once $50+ of products have been added to your cart, add an ATTN! Makeup Sanitizer Mist, then head to the checkout where the Sanitizer will show up free!

And don’t forget to grab your ATTN! Beauty Trio which is on sale now for a limited time only! Check out which of the ATTN! Beauty products are right for your kit below!

---

The ATTN! Makeup Sanitizer Mist is a natural and effective sanitizer that cleans and disinfects all powder, gel, and cream-based cosmetics, as well as tools, palettes, and spatulas. The product dries quickly without leaving any residue on tools or cosmetics for a gentle, safe way to eliminate cross-contamination of products without affecting the integrity of the cosmetics.

---

The ATTN! No-Rinse Makeup Remover Foam is an aloe vera-based product that moisturizes the skin while removing all makeup, including waterproof cosmetics! The safe, all-natural formula leaves the skin hydrated, while also safely cleansing and soothing the skin.

---

The ATTN! Makeup Mixing Medium Drops are an essential, versatile, multi-use product that intensifies, binds, and revives makeup products. The aloe vera gel-based liquid is waterproof, sweat-proof, safe for the eyelids, and moisturizing for the skin.

Let’s face it—some people are hard to shop for. If you’re still searching for the perfect gift for the makeup enthusiast in your life, look no further! At Make Up First, we have gift cards available for both the Pro Shop and for our courses and workshops!

Make Up First Pro Shop gift cards can be used on anything in the pro shop—foundations, eyeshadow palettes, even airbrush kits! Give your loved ones the gift of choice and let them decide what piece of makeup to fall in love with next!

We also have gift cards available for courses and workshops! If someone in your life is looking to get started with makeup artistry, or even enjoy a workshop, there’s no better gift than education. All gift cards can be purchased easily on our Pro Shop website here!

Make Up First gift cards make excellent stocking stuffers! Purchase at the link below!

What’s better than new makeup? How about a whole new makeup kit! Every student at Make Up First receives their own kit, filled with everything you need to complete a full face of makeup each day. We’re always updating our student kits with the best new products we can find, and this session is our first offering two new palettes of eyeshadows from Viseart! Take a tour through our student kit to see some of our favorite products as well as our new arrivals!

NEW THIS SESSION

Be the first to try our new Viseart Eyeshadow Palettes this upcoming session! The Editorial Brights and Neutral Mattes palettes are the perfect addition to any artist’s kit, covering the full dynamic range of color. These Viseart shadows also retain a high standard of production—in addition to being gluten-free and cruelty-free, they are free of parabens, sulfates, formaldehydes, and other problematic ingredients!

Each kit comes with a 24 piece brush set from Bdellium Tools, complete with a roll up pouch featuring 24 total pockets. This collection of brushes features a blend of natural and synthetic bristles, as well as anodized aluminum ferrules, to keep your brushes fit and functional for longer.

---

SANITATION STATION

In the world of makeup artistry, sanitation and proper hygiene is paramount. We cover these topics on day one of our program. Properly cleaning brushes, using a quick-drying, alcohol-based solution like Cinema Secret’s brush cleaner, ensure that they stay safe to use and last longer. Stainless steel palettes and palette knives are non-porous, which makes them easy to sanitize, and safely apply makeup without double-dipping or cross contamination.

Master the art of makeup with daily hands-on application using a variety of professional brands like Palladio, FACEatelier, Eve Pearl, Cinema Secrets, and more! Your kit comes complete with all the tools you’ll need to complete a full face of makeup including a lash curler, sharpener, and grooming scissors. All kits come stocked with enough makeup to last the entire certificate program and beyond, but if you ever want to restock or try new products, our Pro Shop is conveniently located on site!

SCHOLARSHIPS & GRANTS

There are hundreds of scholarships and grants available for prospective students in Chicago and throughout the Midwest. Some you can apply for in less than 15 minutes! There are also benefits for US veterans, employer education stipends, and much more! With a little digging, you may find that you’re eligible for multiple options to help pay for education.

Below we’ve compiled a list of some of the scholarships and grants used by previous students of Make Up First to help you jumpstart the process!

Note: Some scholarships require Cosmetology and or Aesthetics licenses in order to be an eligible applicant. Be sure to research requirements carefully prior to submitting an application. 

• The Professional Beauty Association provides scholarship information for organizations such as Minerva, Hans Neumaier, Sally Beauty Supply, and America’s Beauty Show!

• The Presidents Scholarship from America’s Beauty Show and Cosmetologists Chicago can help you take your career to the next level. Regular members of Cosmetologists Chicago® (CC), Cosmetologos Latinos® (CL), American Assiociation for Esthetics® (AAE), and International Nail Technicians Association® (INTA) can apply for up to $2,500 a year ($7,500 lifetime maximum) for Advanced Classes and Seminars.

• American Association of Cosmetology Schools (AACS) partners with industry sponsors to offer scholarships and grants to deserving cosmetology students. Beauty Changes Lives (BCL) currently offers seven scholarships in all categories representing the beauty and wellness industry. They also offer two advanced education scholarships, one in cosmetology and one in makeup. Since 2013, BCL has given away more than $1,000,000 in scholarships to students attending cosmetology, esthetics, nail, massage, makeup and advanced courses.

• Beauty Schools Directory is donating a $2500 Scholarship to help pay for education at the beauty school of your dreams! Deadline is October 31st!

• Blessons Scholarships for Women are funded by donations and are unique and may often function as the only source of support for women where no other granting and scholarship organizations may exist or are accessible in it’s nature where grade point average is NOT a deciding factor. They give women the resources to realize their educational goals to use the funds in whatever way that helps them most such as: books, tuition, on-campus health insurance, cafeteria, computer labs and transportation.

• The Chade Foundation Scholarships Program is offering financial aid to incoming and current college or graduate school students. In order to show our gratitude and support to the Chicagoland community, the company established Chade Foundation in 2007.

CONTINUING EDUCATION HOURS
FOR COSMETOLOGISTS & ESTHETICIANS

Every two years, cosmetologists and estheticians must fulfill between 10 to 14 hours of Continuing Education to keep their license active under the Illinois Barber Act. While half of the required hours can be completed online, the other half must be earned in the classroom.

Check out some of our upcoming workshops below!

Hairstyling for Makeup Artists - 9 to 12 CE Hours

TEMPTU Certified Airbrush Bridal Workshop - 6 CE Hours

“If you do something you love, you’ll never work a day in your life” -Anonymous

For Mom

Whether your mom is a makeup master, or someone who goes au natural, rejuvenating masks are the ultimate gift. Hydrating masks, like The Pastel Shop’s Aloe Vera and Charcoal Mask, help replenish essential vitamins and moisture that your skin craves, while absorbing oil and minimizing pores. And at just $3 a mask, you can buy one for yourself too.! Who doesn’t love family bonding?

Make sure to pair your gift with a moisturizing lotion for daily use, like Embryolisse’s Lait-Creme Concentre + Gloss, which functions as a primer and nourishing moisturizer in the tube, and has a gloss under the cap. Multi-use products make a perfect pair with moms who don’t fuss around with a ton of different brands. For the mom who is all-natural, ATTN! Beauty’s No-Rinse Makeup Remover Foam is a gentle way to remove makeup at the end of the day, even for those with sensitive skin!

---

For the Makeup Artist

What do you get someone who has everything? Makeup artists can be particular about the products they use, but there are still great gifts available in the makeup section. Organization options, like a brush tube or artist backpack, can help corral an artist’s ever-growing makeup collection.

Also consider choosing a gift that can expand their skill set. This starter pack from TEMPTU includes everything you need to get started with airbrush makeup. For the ultimate combo, give the gift of education and set them up with an airbrush workshop to perfect their technique!

---

For the One Who is Always On the Go

Busy travelers have some very unique makeup needs. Portable items are a plus, as well as items that make life easier. The Riki Cutie mirror is the perfect solution for applying your makeup in a pinch—like in the back of a cab.

When it’s time to pack up, the Sigma Spa Glove makes cleaning your brushes a breeze, while the MakeUp Eraser is a reusable option for removing any type of makeup with just water!

---

For the One Who Doesn’t Really Wear Makeup

It’s true: some people don’t use much makeup, but skin products are still a necessity, and there are products that make applying makeup easy.

Embryolisse’s CC Cream is a moisturizing skin enhancer that works on any skin tone to fill in fine lines, plump the face, and renew the skin. Senna’s Form-A-Brow makes finding and executing the perfect brow easy for anyone. Grab Kevyn Aucoin’s The Volume Mascara to effortlessly create gorgeous, dramatic lashes that last all day.

---

For the Adventurous

Go with something fun for your friend who is always expanding their horizons. If bold, interesting, or dramatic looks sound about right, look no further. Stilazzi’s Darkroom Eyeshadow Palette is filled with dazzling colors and tones developed by professional makeup artist, Jordan Liberty. For the best in attention-grabbing lip shades, go with MODELROCK’s Liquid Last Matte Lipstick. To create some instant glow during the harsh winter months, grab Melanie Mills Hollywood Gleam on the Go Radiance Kit, which creates a subtle glowing gleam for both body and face!

Keep your clients flawless with these adorably small kit additions. Eve Pearl’s finger-sized puffs keep your applications perfect while you work. Tweeze out any stray hairs with these travel-friendly micro tweezers. Tiny spray bottles work to keep your sponges wet and ready to use.
