I had my mom handy who helped the actual application if they were blind
women if sighted they were just being taught techniques and told how to
apply.
I ask for verbal feedback and also the other ladies at the table would give
feedback because they were usually a group of women.
I basically taught the techniques.
I also explained about the colors.
No offense taken that was a good question.

Hi Laura,
I am not disputing your skills, but if you are blind, I am wondering how
you knew when the women/young ladies you taught to apply makeup did
something wrong. For example, getting just a bit more blush on one cheek
than the other. I am not trying to start an argument here, but am just
wondering how you knew if they goofed. <smile>

Hi Guys,
I use to be a color consultant and taught ladies and young ladies how to
apply makeup and what colors looked best for them.
I also did color analysis on men and women and helped them know what
colors looked best.
I did this about 3 or so years.
Yes, I am blind but learned what questions to ask and was not fooled by
hair coloring or areas where other consultants who could see weren't sure.
IT was fun.
here is info on color and what colors look best according to what I
learned in a nutshell.
Winter
Someone with dark hair any brunette, blacck, or medium to dark shade of
hair in brown or black family.
Freckles would be chocolate brown in color if you have any.
You want to wear your colors at least up near your face so you look like
your healthy, almost have natural blush to cheeks and lips,
your right colors will lessen appearances of blemishes and imperfections
If you decide to wear warm colors do it on your feet and lower half of
your body or away from your face.
You can wear the same colors as a summer but best to do the vibrant bright
or darker colors....however the lighter shades also look ok. Just stay away
from colors that have yellow or orange in them if you can up near your face.
your a winter. and cool
colors to wear
vibrant bright colors that don't have any yellow or orange undertones
dark and Bright color to complement your darker shade of hair and either
your pale light complexion or dark complexion

Summer Cool
You look best in cool shades of colors that are lighter in shade than a
winter.
You don't want to over power your face with bright colors....you want
people to see you not the color your wearing.
You can still wear the darker brighter shades just know your best colors
are more powder or pastell light shades of those colors a winter can wear
If you decide to wear warm colors do it on your feet and lower half of
your body or away from your face.

in and can give you words to use when asking for help picking out colors in
a store.

I also learned about what types of clothing to wear that most flatter
certain body types.

Have a good day all.
