Conduct a brief research on a set before purchase. Read reviews or find one and read its content. It should match your skin type. Kids with sensitive for example deserve a non-toxic and light makeup to make sure it does not breakout. You may want to check with a dermatologist is highly recommended.

Familiarize yourself with the tools and techniques of using such sets. Learn to blend and practice those strokes.

Make use of costumes and other accessories such as wigs to add details to your masterpiece.

Bags with multiple pockets are great in organizing your tools and cosmetics. This enables you to easily find what you are looking for in the least possible time. This also prevents germs among your tools and makeup. Have the habit of washing brushes and sponges before keeping it away. Use baby shampoo to remove excess cream or powder from its bristle and pad. Rinse it thoroughly and air dry.

Do not forget to wash your hands before engaging in this craft. Use disposable pads and clean brushes as applicators. Invest on a mixing palette if you plan to use share same kit with a group. This also prevents contamination. Never share your tools or cosmetics with others.

Be cautious that such cosmetics has an expiration date. If unsure smell it. Dispose of it if it smells or looks funny. Eyebrow pencils, lipsticks and lip liners only last for a year. Face paints, liquid latex and cleansers also have the same shelf life. Keep mascaras for 6 months before you throw it away. Moisturizers, blush, eye shadows, powders, liquid foundation and concealers have a longer life. Dispose after 2 years.

Theatrical makeup is heavier than daily cosmetics. It last longer under the heat of stage lights. Clean and moisturize the area where you want to apply it. Evenly distribute it to make it look natural but do this after skin testing. Stop using if sudden itchiness occurs. Failure to do so may result to inflammation or pimples. Have a topical ointment ready for rashes in case it starts to show after use.

However it demands more effort to remove. It can clog pores that often results to skin irritations that is sometimes irreversible. Do not rely on baby wipes or cold creams alone from removing it. Wash it away co with soap and water then use a cleanser to remove excess dirt and moisturize afterwards.
