Facial TreatmentsQuestion 74 of 100
Which combination of makeup practices is both technically and sanitarily correct?
a.Dip the applicator directly into the jar and use green concealer to cover dark under-eye circles
b.Use a lip brush directly from the client's mouth back into the lipstick tube
c.Scrape product from the container onto a clean palette, use disposable or freshly disinfected applicators, and use a green-based corrector to neutralize redness
d.Blow on brushes to remove excess powder before applying
Explanation
Product is decanted onto a palette with a clean spatula so the bulk container is never touched by a used applicator, and single-use or disinfected applicators are used for each client. In color theory, green sits opposite red and neutralizes redness, while peach or yellow tones counter bluish under-eye shadows. Double-dipping and blowing on brushes both contaminate product directly.
