- Before using a new make-up preparation be sure to read the manufacturer's manual, and first try the preparation on a small part of skin only so that you can learn the cause and find an alternative preparation to this one should any allergic hypersensitive reaction arises.
- Try not to assume other people's make-up. A make-up suit successfully to one person may be unfit completely to the other one. In case of implicit imitation of other people's make-up you will not be able to take into account individual anatomic features of your face, colours of your dress and peculiarities of the image you are creating.
- Make-up should be chosen depending on the kind of work (performance in the ring, video-shooting, photo-shooting).
- In choosing the make-up it is necessary to consider the colour mixing effect. Coloured lighting sources, as well as colour of your dress, may change your make-up appearance noticeably.
- In case of yellow and pale-yellow lightening: Rouge turns orange or becomes pale and disappears depending on the tone. Brown colour becomes deeper. Blue turns green. Dark-green turns light-brown. Grey-blue becomes deeper, up to the colour of shale. Natural tone looks pale.
- In case of red lightening: Rouge and lip pomade become pale. Blue and grey-blue colours turn violet. Light-brown colour disappears at all. Dark-green turns yellowish. Brown becomes practically black. Natural tone looks pale-orange.
- In case of blue lightening: Pale rouge looks dark-violet. Dark rouge looks black-violet and sometimes, depending on the tone, rouge may look like simply dirty spots on cheeks. Lip pomade turns black. Natural tone usually looks purple
- In case of green lightening: Red colour looks brown. Brown colour turns black. Light and dark tones become noticeably greenish.
