My name is Monica Alessio, I'm 17 and a senior in high school. For my project i chose to research makeup and show how to do a certain makeup on a model. The reason why I chose to pick this certain topic is because I've always been interested in makeup and wanted to know more about it. In conducting research for my product I went over the basics. I researched everything from how to apply eye shadow to the different kinds of skin tones and types. After learning everything I need to know for my project I picked a look I wanted to practice more more and chose it for my ending product. After researching and learning about makeup, I not only learned about time management, communication skills, and other basic skills. I also learned that becoming a makeup artist isn't just about makeup, it's about practice, knowing style, talking to your clients and knowing exactly what they want.
