The origins of remedial camouflage cosmetics
The need for this specific type of makeup was identified during World War II, to cover physical disfigurement caused by war. Initially you could only purchase theatrical make-up to cover skin imperfections but today there are many good brands on the market.
These products are formulated to be waterproof and long lasting. They are thicker than normal makeup and once applied and set with powder they will stay all day on the face and body.
Choose the foundation shade that blends with the skin surrounding the affected area. If required, you can apply ordinary makeup on top to give a natural appearance. Follow the techniques learnt in DESIGN AND APPLY MAKEUP for the application of makeup.

Skin tones
There are three main elements that contribute to the colour of skin. They are melanin – carotene - blood.
Melanin.
This is a protective pigment that can filter out the sun’s ultra-violet radiation. Melanin is produced by specialised cells called melanocytes. All human races have approximately the same amount of melanin in the skin. It is the difference in the amount of melanin that the melanocytes produce that causes the difference in skin colours. When there is a failure of the melanocytes to produce any pigment the condition is called Albinism. Partial lack of pigment results in white spots known as vitiligo – Hypo-pigmentation. Freckles form when melanin develops in patches –
Hyper-pigmentation.
Melanocytes use the amino acid Tyrosine in the presence of the enzyme Tyrosine's, to produce melanin. Melanin production is stimulated by ultra violet radiation. The melanin is taken up by the epidermal cells and distributed throughout the skin. Continued exposure to ultra violet radiation increases of darkness of the melanin resulting in a tanned skin. This skin darkening provides some protection against the radiation. Unfortunately the appearance of ageing of the skin is also increased due to exposure to ultraviolet radiation.
Carotene.
This is a pigment found in Asian skin tones. The carotene and melanin combine
to give a yellowish hue to the skin.
Blood.
The capillaries in the dermis of the skin combined with the lowered levels of
pigmentation, contribute to the pinkish hue of Caucasian skin.
Human skin can be a range of colours depending on the presence, absence and
combinations of these three elements.

Skin tones
In addition to melanin, carotene and blood, skin colour can also be affected by;
Surface reflection of light.
Absorption of light.
Scattering of light.
Type of light.
Thickness of the skin layers.
Presence of light absorbing materials (collagen, elastin, melanin, carotenes, haemoglobins, lipids).
Melansomes (number, size, type, distribution).
Skin pigment is very important in the hair and beauty industry as skin colour is linked with social factors and differing perceptions of what is aesthetically acceptable. Some people may be dissatisfied with their skin colour, wanting it either darker or lighter. Some who have a blotchy or patchy skin may want a smooth even skin tone. Make-up creates a temporary improvement in the colour of the skin.
Colour temperature.
A warm skin undertone looks good in apricots, yellow, green and rust.
A cool skin undertone looks good in blue, pink, silver and grey.
Sources of colour.
A makeup artist needs to have a basic knowledge of the nature of colour
and the effects of light on colour. Colour cannot exist without light.
Natural light (daylight) travels in waves from the sun. These waves vary in length.
White light or natural light as seen by the human eye is made up of a mixture
of colour.
A tint of a colour is when white is added to that colour.
A shade of a colour is when black is added to that colour.

Disorders of pigmentation
Couperose.
Couperose skin is prone to redness and is caused by dilated capillaries in the skin. Often this is hereditary where the skin is thin and sensitive and the capillaries walls are weak. Exposure to extreme heat and cold contribute to this condition.
Hyperpigmentation.
This is a skin condition where patches of skin become darker than the normal skin tone. This can affect different skin colours of all human races. It is caused by excess of melanin forming deposits in the skin. Age and liver spots are a common form of hyperpigmentation.
Hypopigimentation.
This is the loss of colour in the skin. It is caused by a decrease of the amino acid Tyrosine which is used by the melanocytes to make melanin. This is known as Vitiligo and Leukoderma.
Chloasma.
This condition is seen as patches of increased pigmentation on the face.
Usually occurs during pregnancy, taking the contraceptive pill and
during menopause.
Melanoderma.
This describes patchy pigmentation on the skin usually caused when a
product (perfume) is applied to the skin and it causes photosensitivity.
Vitiligo, a fungal condition giving the skin a blotchy appearance. Leukoderma is another name for Vitiligo.

7. Design and apply remedial camouflage makeup
Disorders of pigmentation
There are four Naevus conditions of the skin.
1. Capillary naevus or port wine stain is a pale to pink purple colouration caused by enlarged capillaries in the dermis.
They are flat, irregularly shaped patches mainly seen on the face but also appear in other places.
2. Strawberry naevus is a condition that appears within three months of birth and usually disappears by the age
of 10. They are often raised.
3. Spider naevus is a collection of broken capillaries radiating from a central, raised area. Commonly appears during
pregnancy but may also appear at any age. Most common on the face.
4. Pigmented naevi or moles can vary in color from pink to brown or black. They can be flat or raised smooth having a
round shape and may contain hairs.
Scar tissue.
Keloid is a type of scaring caused by an increase of collagen fibres, resulting in an overgrowth of scar tissue. The raised
ridge will be smooth and shiny. A hypertrophic scar is a cutaneous condition characterised by deposits of excessive
amounts of collagen which gives rise to a raised scar, but not to the degree observed with keloids. Like keloids, they
form most often at the sites of pimples, body piercings, cuts and burns.
Skin disorders.
Rosacea is a medical term to describe an accumulation on the skin of the normal sebaceous secretion, mixed with dirt
which forms scales or a distinct incrustation. There may be a gradual development of a flushing appearance on the
nose and cheek. The skin is very oily and normal make-up products slide off.
Psoriasis is commonly seen as red scaly patches on the skin. The scaly patches are areas of excessive skin production.
The redness takes on a silvery-white appearance.

Preparing the client for makeup application
Drape the client with a protective cape to prevent any makeup from spilling onto the client’s clothes. If necessary you can use a head band to keep their hair off their forehead but your client may not like this. You can use hair clips to pin the hair away from the face while you are applying the makeup.
Adjust the client’s chair so that your posture is straight, not bent over, when you are applying makeup. It is recommended that you use a high stool with supporting back for the client. The client’s head should be at your throat level for ease of makeup application. This also allows you to judge if your makeup application is balanced.
Workplace policies and procedures may refer to;
Compliance with legislation relating to health and hygiene must be practiced at all times. 
Minimisation of waste and correct waste disposal.
Following manufacturer’s recommendations for use of specific products and tools.
Allocating appropriate time for consultations and makeup applications.
Addressing any adverse reactions caused by products in a professional manner.
Adverse reactions to products.
Should a client have a reaction to a product you have applied on their skin, wash the skin immediately and do not proceed. Should it be necessary, refer the client to a medical doctor.

13. Design and apply remedial camouflage makeup
Identifying skin type and condition
There are 3 ways to identify skin type and condition.
Initial observation.
Visual analysis.
Analysis by touch.
This is your first impression of the skin. Is it oily? Is there too much makeup applied? Does the skin have uneven
pigmentation?
This requires removal of the makeup. Once the skin is cleaned you will have a better understanding of the condition
the skin. Are there any visible contraindications that would prevent you from applying makeup?
During the cleansing of the skin you had a chance to touch the skin. What skin type does the client have? It is
important to identify the skin type, as it allows a correct moisturiser and foundation base to be applied that will best
suit the client.
Preparing the skin prior to applying camouflage makeup is very important as it affects how long the makeup stays on
the face or body. Remedial camouflage results will not meet the client’s expectations unless the skin is thoroughly
cleansed before starting the makeup.
As camouflage makeup is designed to be long lasting, it is best to use cleansing products specified by the
manufacturer as they will dissolve the product more effectively than normal everyday cleansers. This applies to face
and body cleansing.
Design and apply remedial camouflage makeup

14. Design and apply remedial camouflage makeup
Preparing the client’s face
Analyse the client’s skin.
The equipment required for this process is;
Select the correct items for the client’s skin type. This should include; cleanser, toner and moisturiser.
Eye makeup remover.
Hand towel, client cape and head band or clips.
Tissues and cotton wool pads.
Spatulas and facial sponges.
Warm water in bowl for rinsing the face.
Cleansing products - A cleanser will remove both oil-soluble and water-soluble substances on the skin. Oil is capable
of dissolving grease while water will usually dissolve other substances.
Eye make-up removers - It is best to use specific eye make-up removers around the eye area. They can be lotions, creams or gel and can be used on all skin types. If your client has contact lenses be specially careful around the eye.
Skin toners - A skin toner must always be applied once the skin cleanser has been removed. This balances the skin’s pH after cleansing and prepares the skin for the moisturiser.
Moisturisers - It is important to always apply the correct type of moisturiser for the client’s skin type before applying any foundation. Moisturisers allow the foundation to be applied smoothly, overcoming any dry patches where the foundation may grab onto the skin.
Always follow any relevant legislation and work place procedures when preparing the client for a makeup service.

15. Design and apply remedial camouflage makeup
Camouflage products
The products chosen for camouflage makeup will depend on the severity of the condition. Product ranges that offer a small choice of colour may require mixing to achieve an exact match to the skin tone. You can create a ‘prescription colour’, one that is a mixture of two or more shades, to get the right skin tone. Write down the ratio of each colour mixed to allow the client to mix their shade at home.
Specific products are also available for use on scar tissue after cosmetic surgery. A fixer spray should be used if the areas is exposed to extreme conditions or rubbing on clothing. A fixer spray is also used with skin plastic to set it prior to the makeup application.
There are many brands that cater for remedial camouflage makeup and you need to have a variety of these brands to cover the different skin conditions you will encounter.
Camouflage products may vary between brands.
Product thickness.
Selection suitability to skin conditions and tones.
Colour range.
Ease of application.
Variety, some manufacturers provide for face and body make-up.
Colour base (yellow, pink or combination).
Waterproof qualities.
Sun protection.
Product thickness and ease of application.
Thick products give good coverage but are difficult to apply.
The product should not drag the skin or feel tacky or sticky.
Design and apply remedial camouflage makeup

16. Design and apply remedial camouflage makeup
Camouflage coverage
The amount of coverage is very important on dark blemishes. On lighter blemishes it can be a lighter coverage.
Camouflage ingredients may include;
Titanium Dioxide which is a white crystalline powder. It is highly opaque, waterproof and has excellent coverage properties.
Zinc Oxide is almost as opaque as Titanium Dioxide and is waterproof.
Calcium Carbonate is a chalk that is not as opaque as Titanium Dioxide or Zinc Oxide.
Canauba wax is a hard wax used to add texture. This waterproofs and thickens.
Insoluble soaps such as Magnesium Stearate or Zinc Stearate give adhesion properties to the products.
Most do not contain alcohol or perfume as these can cause allergies.
Remedial camouflage foundations are formulated to be long lasting, waterproof and have stable colours designed to conceal skin imperfections. These products are generally pigments in a waxy powder base. The pigments are insoluble, solid, colouring materials such as iron oxide which can be yellow (ochre), red or brown, depending on the other chemicals present with it.
Variety.
Some brands have face and body products. Face products are designed for concealing facial imperfections or as an overall face makeup.
Body products are designed to cover larger areas of the body. With correct application and if necessary using the fixer spray, the body makeup will not rub off on the client’s clothing.
Design and apply remedial camouflage makeup

17. Design and apply remedial camouflage makeup
Camouflage waterproof qualities
The make-up should allow the user to participate in water sports without having to re-apply the makeup.
Sunscreen ability.
The product needs to contain ultraviolet (UV) filters or be a broad-spectrum sunscreen as many skin conditions are delicate and susceptible to sun damage. A broad-spectrum sunscreen prevents all A and B ultraviolet rays (UV) from penetrating the skin. An ordinary sunscreen only filters out B ultraviolet rays. As camouflage products already contain Titanium Dioxide and Zinc Dioxide they do offer some protection from the sun.
Choosing the brand to use.
Most brands supply tester kits with small sizes, giving you a greater variety of shades and textures. When selecting camouflage makeup products your choice should be based on the manufacturers’ guidelines. These will assist you to select the appropriate products to meet the requirements of the makeup design chosen. The guidelines will also help you to explain the reasons why you have chosen those products for your client.
Assessing the treatment area.
Many people requiring camouflage makeup will be sensitive about their condition. A consultation prior to the make-up application is essential so that no misunderstandings occur.
When covering a large area, the colours need to match the skin tone and be blended carefully. To minimise the impact of the blemish it may be best to not totally conceal it but just lightly cover it for a more subtle look. A small area is easier to disguise.
Other requirements for camouflage makeup application include; - birthmarks, moles and tattoos.
Design and apply remedial camouflage makeup

18. Design and apply remedial camouflage makeup
Position of the blemish
You need to treat the body and face differently. Your choice of brand will determine how long the makeup will stay on.
Body foundations are designed to last from 3 to 5 days.
Facial foundations last for 1 day.
Body foundations should be perfectly blended and powdered well to ensure a long lasting effect.
Facial foundations may be covered with ordinary makeup.
The blemish may be in a position that is not obvious so less coverage is required.
The blemish may contain hair. Ask the client how they would like the hair treated – cut off or just left?
Can the client easily apply the products on themselves? If it is too thick they may find it difficult.
Fragile and delicate skin needs to be handled carefully so as not to stretch or scratch the skin.
Severity.
The conditions you will encounter vary greatly so the time spent applying the makeup will vary accordingly.
Texture of the skin.
Certain conditions produce uneven skin texture. This may not be noticeable until the area has been camouflaged. Most times the client will not bother about the uneven skin texture if the skin colour is even.
Lines and wrinkles.
If the client has many lines and wrinkles on the face, a lighter coverage of foundation and powder is necessary so as not to accentuate the problem. A heavy makeup application makes lines and wrinkle more noticeable.
Skin temperature.
Conditions associated with disorders of the blood vessels will increase the skin temperature. This causes the product to melt on the skin. You will need to choose a product with a waxy texture to overcome this problem.

Applying remedial camouflage makeup
It is important in your role of a makeup artist to teach the clients you have, who require camouflage makeup, how to apply the makeup on themselves at home. Your client can watch each step if you allow them to hold a good sized mirror while you are applying the makeup on the face. If the camouflage makeup is required on the back then a full length mirror may be required.
The manufacturers of camouflage makeup products supply instructions on how to best use their products. Follow these carefully. You need to judge how much coverage the condition needs, being sensitive to the client’s feelings.

Steps in camouflage makeup application
1. Ensure the skin is cleansed, toned and moisturised with the most suitable products for the skin condition.
2. Apply concealer where necessary.
3. With the light shining directly onto the skin, make a colour choice for the foundation. You may be required to
mix a few together to get the best match. Do this by applying some of the colours on to the back of your hand and
mix them until the right shade is created.
4. Apply the product according to manufacturer’s instructions. Usually a light patting motion works better than
rubbing the foundation into the skin. The foundation should be a thin layer to begin with. You can build on those
layers where necessary. Fade away at the edges to blend into the natural skin.
5. On the face you can apply a normal makeup foundation lightly over the camouflaged condition to blend it in with
the rest of the face.
6. Set the foundation with a face powder, applied with a powder puff, in a rolling, patting action. This gives long
lasting qualities to the foundation, eyeshadows, pencils and blushers. Dust off the excess powder with the powder
brush and if required pat over with a slightly damp sponge to give a more natural finish to the powder.
7. On the body, a fixing spray may be used if the condition rubs against clothing.
8. On the rest of the face apply normal makeup colours to finish off the look.
Sometimes plastic skin is required over scars. Follow manufacturer’s instructions.
Makeup will always look more natural after 15 minutes when the body heat has made the makeup blend better into the skin tone.
For future reference complete a client card on the makeup applied.

22. Design and apply remedial camouflage makeup
Camouflage of tattoos
1. Colour match.
Before attempting to cover a tattoo, conduct a colour match to obtain an indication of the correct skin tone colour. Make sure that you are in a room with lots of natural light as artificial light can give a false image. Select a colour that you think most resembles the skin tone and apply it to the skin in the area near to the tattoo. Depending on how this looks you can add more shades. Do this a little bit at a time and record what shades you are adding. The camouflage makeup will stay malleable until you apply the fixing powder.
2.Correcting the tattoo. Clean the tattooed area making sure there are no moisturisers or soaps left on the skin as this can destabilise the camouflage makeup. A good common correcting colour in the Dermacolour range is D32. When applied to the tattoo it will reduce the dark colours to a more neutral colour. Apply the colour with a small makeup brush or sponge and paint over the lines or filled areas of the tattoo. Once you have sufficiently covered the tattoo the correcting colour should then be fixed.
3. Fixing the cream. Very generously apply the fixing powder to the camouflage makeup using a powder puff. Wait 5-10 minutes for this to dry and set, then brush off any excess. If you discover you have missed an area you can go over this with the correcting colour and reapply the fixing powder again. Once you are satisfied the tattoo is sufficiently covered you can then apply the skin tone colour.
Design and apply remedial camouflage makeup

23. Design and apply remedial camouflage makeup
4. Applying the skin tone colour(s)
Having created the correct colour match, apply the required colours on top of the correcting colour using a makeup brush or sponge. Use a stippling action as continuous rubbing or dragging can disturb the correcting colours underneath. Your colour may vary slightly when applied in conjunction with the correcting colour underneath, so be prepared for this. Cover the tattoo with your skin tone colour for about 2cm past the edge of the tattoo area, beyond this area begin to fade away the colours into the surrounding skin. Once you are satisfied with the colour and the coverage, fix the makeup once again, ensuring you cover the whole area where the makeup has now been applied.
5. Finishing touches. Remember that skin is rarely flawless or a consistent colour, so match the colour to the surrounding skin. When you have finished you can lightly mist the area with mineral water to soften the effects of the remaining powder. For areas that require extra fixing , especially the neck, arms, legs and body, you can use the Dermacolor Fixing Spray.
6. Additional makeup or touching Up.
Additional dry makeup can be applied on top of the camouflage makeup if required. Touching up should not be
necessary, however tattoos can be very difficult to cover and in areas prone to rubbing, and it is possible that the tattoo may start to reappear. If covering a tattoo for a wedding or special occasion, apply the camouflage makeup as late as possible.
7. Removal.
For effective removal of camouflage makeup use a cleansing product that is specially designed for the job. Apply onto the covered area until the makeup is gently lifted from the skin. Remove with a warm, damp cloth or damp cotton pads.
A second application may be required.

Recording camouflage information on a client card
As a makeup artist you may need to write down the client’s personal details on a client card detailing their name and contact details. Make notes of the problem area that you have applied the makeup over. Make instructions on what products you applied and how you applied them for future appointments with the client.

Customer service for camouflage makeup clients
As camouflage makeup is designed to be long lasting it can be hard to remove with everyday skincare products.
The suppliers of camouflage makeup will also provide cleansing products suitable for their products. As a makeup artist you need to have these products in your kit as well as everyday skin care items.
You will need to show your client how to remove the makeup at home.
Demonstrate carefully and allow the client to practice on their arm before they leave you. Show them;
How to blend the foundations if more than one is used to gain the correct skin tone.
How to apply the products to gain the same results as you did in your makeup application.
Which products to use and how to cleanse the area that has been camouflaged.
Which products to use for toning and moisturising after cleansing.
Advise your client that should a possible reaction occur they should consult a medical doctor.
To assist your client, give them a coloured drawing of your makeup application so that they can follow it at home. Your client needs time to practice the application. Organise a follow up appointment about 2 weeks after the treatment. Have the client apply the camouflage makeup so you can check how they are coping. Approximately 3 months later, have the client revisit you to see if any colour changes are necessary. This is good customer service.
Homecare advice.
Camouflage face makeup lasts one day while body make-up can last up to 4 days. To maintain body makeup, the camouflaged area should only be patted dry after bathing. Do not use soap or cleansing products on the treated area. In hot weather the makeup will not stay on as long as in cold weather. Rubbing on clothing also reduces the staying power.
If the treated area begins to irritate it should be removed immediately. Have the client seek medical advice.

Sustainability Sustainability is the ability to maintain a certain status or process in existing systems. The most frequent use of the term sustainability, is connected to biological or human systems in the context of ecology. The ability of an ecosystem to function and maintain productivity for a prolonged period is also sustainability.
Sustainability in general refers to the property of being sustainable. The widely accepted definition of sustainability or sustainable development was given by World Commission on Environment and Development in It defined sustainable development as "forms of progress that meet the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their needs.“
Practically, sustainability refers to three broad themes, economic, social and environmental, that must all be coordinated and addressed to ensure the long term viability of a community and the planet.
The primary goal of sustainable is using renewable natural resources in a manner that does not eliminate or degrade them or otherwise diminish their usefulness for future generations.
