Makeup for teachers
A working face has to survive the job, and the job sets the constraint more than taste does.
Written by Lamyaa Aissi, professional makeup artist, Casablanca.
Test it under the conditions it has to survive, not the conditions it is easy in.
What actually decides it
Duration, physical conditions, and whether the face is close to other people or a camera.
The constraint for teachers. The question is how many hours it must survive, whether the face is close to other people or a camera, and whether there is any realistic chance to retouch. For most working days the answer is none, which decides the formulas before anything else.
On Moroccan skin, in a Moroccan climate
Long shifts in Moroccan heat mean the sensible choice is less base and more targeted concealer, not the reverse.
What it will not do
It cannot be built for the mirror at the start of a shift. Build for hour eight.
