Okay so my city is finally having a fashion week and I can only do two days out of 4 but they're both 7 hours straight each.

Experiences? How did you go/handle it?

Expectation & reality - Were you expecting chaos or just a neutral event?
What do you think the most popular look is towards the finish look?

Confident issues, how to step up to the plate? Suggestions guys??

And lastly, what's in your kit that would be VITAL to bring to a show.

Thanks guys, I'm just so nervous. The last time I did a work experience session, I literally had a brain fart moment and just didn't know what to do.

You might be the pressure because of the time constraint and the amount of people you'll work on in it. But the looks should be pretty quick since no priming is necessary and most models have decent skin that doesn't require a lot of attention.

A major must have would be a brush cleaner since you'll be working on model after model very quickly.

Also if you have dupes of your must have brushes (like foundation and blending brushes) bring them!

If you know the look before hand try to pick up anything close to the colors involved so that way if product isn't provided you can make it at least look close to that look.

If you're having trouble don't be afraid to ask the key artist.

And never have an empty chair if their are still models that need makeup!

Definitely brush cleaner, a neutral eye palette, and definitely a color one!! that would be great, and take lots of confidence with you.

Thanks guys! It was fun but in the end, the students got snubbed because of a MU leader opinion. Least the hours counts.
