Polishing Workshop of UMAP with Inglot Cosmetics Philippines
Yesterday, some UMAP (Unified Makeup Artists of the Philippines) Members were privileged to experience a workshop sponsored by Inglot Philippines under the tutelage of Inglot Cosmetics Makeup Affiliate Xyrene Eugenio. What is a polishing workshop? Miss Eugenio has had experience working in pageants, having been part of the team under Inglot Philippines for Mutya ng Pilipinas. She works quickly and is a pro at it.
It simply teaches us to practice and hone our expertise in the arena of pageant makeup. UMAP is tasked to provide the makeup services of beauty candidates for an upcoming pageant in the next month. Our Peg was Pia Wurtzbach Alonzo for Binibining Pilipinas and Miss Universe 2016.

Here is what we learned from Xyrene Eugenio.
Applying your base is important, you want to provide a smooth canvas for the makeup to last and withstand the harsh stage lights. Skin should look healthy, clean and glowing.
Foundation used was the HD Line of Inglot in shades 71 and 73 mixed with a little luminizer.
Color Palette used is the Neutral Palette specifically chosen by Xyrene Eugenio.
Coral, Peachy and Earth tones are best
Close up of a day look.
The finished Day look. Contour is emphasised since this has a tendency to look washed out.
Evening Look. Admittedly, the only lacking is the lashes but you can imagine the look with big, flirty wispy lashes to complete the look.

We got to work immediately, taking turns as we executed the day and evening look needed for the pageant.
My take on the evening look, for MUA Michelle Viray minus the lashes.
Different Lighting, Michelle is wearing gray contact lenses to make her eyes pop.
On myself, the left side was done by Michelle Viray while the other half of my face was done by Xyrene Eugenio. We need lashes to make this look over the top.
