Nose Correction Theory

OBJECTIVE:   You will be able to apply correct the nose shape using shadow and highlight with cream and powder products
 

Nose shading and highlighting – correct an issue and/or gives definition

Do all noses need correction? 

·         A good nose may not need it

·         For intense lighting situations, you may need to use highlight to shadow to get the nose to stand out from the rest of the face

When do you use highlight and shadow?

• When the nose is crooked
• When you view the nose in a mirror and the nose looks flat
• When you are trying to create a very dramatic look

Product Choices

·         Cream – in highlight and shadow palette, used for powdering

·         Powder – bronzer or taupe eye shadow used after powdering

Do not mindlessly apply a stripe of highlight down the center of the nose

 Keep shadows to the sides of the nose

 Highlight should only be applied to an area that needs to be lifted.  Try not to apply shadow to the part of the nose that faces SCULPTURAL LIGHT

Highlights – PULL area FORWARD

Shadow – PUSHES area BACK
