Epoch looks
How do you recognize at first glance which era a look comes from? This is exactly where the period looks course comes in. Course participants look at the typical and stylistic features of different decades: the clear brows and dark lips of the 1920s, the glamorous lines and red lips of the 1950s, the natural tones and earthy colors of the 1970s, the strong blush and metallic shimmer of the 1980s through to Y2K shine, gloss and cool pastel shades. You will learn which details clearly place a look in a particular era, from eyebrow shape and eyeshadow application to lip contouring.
An important part is working with photo and film references. You train to quickly recognize features, convert them into make-up steps and quickly adapt or modernize a look. This involves observation, deduction and creative translation.
In practice, you will create one or two complete looks. You will practise implementing historical elements clearly and authentically without the look appearing too heavy or "costumed". This subject helps you to gain a practical understanding of the history of style and to implement period characters in such a way that they are instantly recognizable and look professionally made up.
