As I said at the beginning, the chief difficulty of working with nose wax it is likes to stick to your fingers more than to your face.

SOME GREAT TIPS I have learned to help fix this since I made my videos back in 2005-2007:

• Put a layer of spirit gum on your nose (and let it get tacky) before you start with the wax.
• When the gum gets tacky, stick a cotton ball on your nose, press it in, then pull it away leaving a little fluff to help the wax “grab” your nose. Then promptly stick on your roll or ball of wax.
• As described in the video, clean your fingers EVERY TIME you touch the wax.  BUT you can improve this instruction by putting face powder on your hands after you clean  just like you put flour on your hands for making biscuits!

What to do for points:

1. Apply a Wax Nose, Forehead, or Chin, and incorporate it into the complete makeup design of your face (or your model’s face) based on your rendering.
2. If in the classroom, go out to the hallway with your rendering and have your instructor costume you from the neck up and take your photos for you.
3. If at home, costume yourself from the neck up and photograph your makeup. Take at lot of clear photos from many angles.
4. As a reminder, the How to video for taking makeup photos points out that you want your nose (or horns or whatever) to get photographed in profile against a contrasting colored surface.  It is OK to have a friend take your photos, but if they do, MAKE THEM WATCH THE VIDEO BELOW!!!
5. Upload the best 4 as jpgs or pngs below for credit. 
6. If you don’t remember the video, or you are having a household member take photos, have them watch this:

• Definition: Makeup rendering- drawing of a makeup design one intends to execute

Draw a color makeup rendering on one of your personalized face outline sheets, a generic outline sheet, or freehand, or with computer software of your planned Makeup using a Wax Nose or Forehead or Chin as part of the Makeup Design and bring it to class.  

It is OK to alter or even abandon your design if you find there are problems once you try it on your face, but still do a rendering. It is OK to alter or even abandon your design if you find there are problems once you try it on your face, but still do a rendering. 

Have Tara photograph your rendering (preferably one shot alone, and one shown alongside your finished face makeup as seen above)  or do it yourself if working from home and submit it through the link below . Remember afterwards to also to save any research you did as well as this rendering assignment into your Makeup Morgue/Portfolio project so you build up your morgue gradually and easily over the course of the semester.  

How to get points:

Post your pictures of your rendering here.
