BEFORE COLOURED

WITH FLASH

NO FLASH

This was my first time using Gelatine and I wasn't sure if I liked this technique creating the burn as you have to wait for the gelatine to cool before use but then you have to hurry before it starts to clump together, so it is quite hard to use and get the shape you want. With more practice I am sure I could make it a lot better, I am a perfectionist and really like the make-up to look perfect but I believe if I research which burn I am going to do first then apply t after practices I will be more happy with the outcome. I could do better with getting a better spatula to apply the gelatine and I need to practice blending the product out as this outcome had hard edges.
