PRODUCTION OF COSMETICS AND DEODORANTS

Points to Note in the Choice and Use of Cosmetics and Makeup:

• Skin Type and Tone: Choose products that are suited to your skin type (oily, dry, sensitive, combination) and match your skin tone. For example, use non-comedogenic products for oily skin and hydrating formulas for dry skin.
• Ingredients: Be mindful of the ingredients, especially if you have sensitive skin. Avoid harsh chemicals or allergens, and opt for hypoallergenic or dermatologist-tested products.
• Purpose: Consider the purpose of the product. Are you using makeup for everyday wear, special occasions, or specific functions like coverage or color enhancement?
• Expiration Dates: Always check the expiration date of cosmetics, especially for products like mascara, foundations, and lipsticks. Using expired makeup can cause skin irritation or infections.
• Application Tools: Use the right tools for application, such as brushes, sponges, or fingertips. Proper tools ensure a more even and professional-looking application.
• Patch Testing: Before applying a new product, do a patch test to ensure that you won’t have an allergic reaction, especially for sensitive areas like the eyes and lips.
• Removal: Always remove makeup thoroughly at the end of the day to prevent clogged pores, breakouts, or skin irritation.

Procedures in the Application of Makeup:

• Step 1: Cleanse and Moisturize: Start with a clean face. Use a gentle cleanser to remove dirt and makeup. Apply a moisturizer suited to your skin type to hydrate and create a smooth base for makeup.
• Step 2: Apply Primer: Use a primer to create a smooth surface for makeup application. It helps makeup last longer and minimizes the appearance of pores.
• Step 3: Apply Foundation: Use foundation to even out the skin tone. Apply it using a brush, sponge, or your fingers, blending it well into your skin. Choose a foundation that matches your skin tone and provides the desired coverage.
• Step 4: Apply Concealer: Use concealer to cover up blemishes, dark circles, or any imperfections that need extra coverage. Blend it in with your foundation.
• Step 5: Set with Powder: Apply a setting powder to lock in your foundation and concealer, preventing it from creasing or looking shiny throughout the day.
• Step 6: Apply Blush, Bronzer, and Highlighter: Use blush to add color to your cheeks, bronzer to add warmth and definition to your face, and highlighter to bring a glow to the high points of your face (cheekbones, brow bones, etc.).
• Step 7: Eye Makeup: Apply eyeshadow to your eyelids, eyeliner to define your eyes, and mascara to enhance your lashes. You can also define your brows using a pencil or powder.
• Step 8: Apply Lip Color: Finish with lipstick or lip gloss. Choose a color that complements your makeup look and skin tone.
• Step 9: Set Makeup: Use a makeup setting spray to lock your makeup in place for the day, ensuring it lasts longer and stays fresh.

Deodorants and Anti-perspirants:

• Deodorants: Deodorants are products used to mask or eliminate body odor, typically caused by bacteria on the skin's surface. They may contain antimicrobial agents, fragrances, or natural odor-fighting ingredients to keep the skin fresh and odor-free.
• Anti-perspirants: Anti-perspirants are a type of deodorant that also help reduce perspiration. They contain aluminum-based compounds that temporarily block sweat glands, reducing the amount of sweat released from the body.

Proper Application of Deodorants and Anti-perspirants:

• Deodorant Application:
• Step 1: Ensure your skin is clean and dry before application.
• Step 2: Shake the deodorant (if it’s a spray or roll-on) before use to ensure an even application.
• Step 3: Hold the deodorant a few inches away from your skin and apply it evenly, focusing on areas prone to odor, like the underarms.
• Step 4: Allow the deodorant to dry before dressing to avoid stains on clothing.
• Anti-perspirant Application:
• Step 1: Apply anti-perspirant to clean, dry skin (preferably at night before bed) to allow the active ingredients to block sweat ducts overnight.
• Step 2: Shake the product (if using a spray or roll-on) and apply a thin layer to the underarms.
• Step 3: Let the anti-perspirant dry completely before putting on clothes.
• Step 4: Avoid applying anti-perspirant immediately after shaving, as it may cause irritation.
