Unit content
LO1 Understand how to plan and prepare for face and body art application
Describe how to prepare the working area for face and body art application:
Prepare the work area to ensure - Ease of access and free movement around the couch/chair
- Effective lighting and comfortable temperature
- Hygienic set up of couch/chair and trolley
- Adequate ventilation to avoid product build up in the atmosphere
- Correct positioning of the make-up artist and model
- Ease of access to tools and equipment
- Protect floor
Ensure a safe working area - Appropriate ventilation
- Clean and hygienic
- Effective positioning of make-up chair and mirrors
- Neat and clutter free working area particularly when working in confined areas
- No trailing wires or obstructions
- Maintain visible security of model's belongings (box near the work station in which to place clothes, bag, shoes, or coat hooks and cupboard for storing belongings securely)
Clean the tools and equipment used - Refer to the manufacturer’s instructions before cleaning any make-up tools and
equipment
- Refer to manufacturer’s instructions before cleaning any airbrush equipment
- Disassemble and re-assemble the airbrush equipment
- Rinse spray gun with correct solution immediately after use to avoid blockages
- Spray correct fluid through airbrush until completely clean with no paint residue Explain how professional make-up artists present themselves:
Clean and professional clothing creates a positive impression of the make-up artist. Clothing must be made from a comfortable fabric to facilitate the stretching involved in the service
- Clean and professional uniform or clothing
- Closed-in footwear, no jewellery, hair neatly tied back, light day make up
- Personal hygiene requirements observed (freshly showered, clean hair, deodorant or antiperspirant), oral hygiene (teeth brushed, fresh breath)
- Nails clean and short Explain the salon requirements for record keeping:
Accurate booking systems for jobs (in house or out on location), stationery, loyalty, repeat business
Consultation record keeping, contra-indications, signatures, refer to existing records, information clear, accurate and in logical order (medical history, allergies/hypersensitivity, contact lenses, contra-actions)
Skin sensitivity tests, adaptations and modifications, recommendations
5
Make-up plan, update record at end of service, update each visit, maintained electronically and paper records
State the insurance requirements for delivery of face and body art application:
As a minimum an individual should hold, where applicable, employer’s liability insurance as well as public liability insurance and professional indemnity
Explain the legal requirements for providing treatments to minors:
The age up to which an individual is classed as a minor and how this differs nationally Explain the importance of patch testing:
A patch test is designed to alert the therapist to any pre-disposed skin sensitivity on the model’s behalf. Any active, new or known ingredient that can potentially produce a reaction is usually patch tested 24-48 hours before treatment. All patch tests provided need to be noted and recorded, listing all products and where patch test took place on the body if appropriate, model’s signature and date
Patch testing for individual eyelash applications would include all active or new products to be used within the treatment such as the adhesive and adhesive remover. Model records need to be updated with results. They are conducted to ascertain suitability of products and sensitivity of the model
Patch test application techniques: - Cleanse area (either crook of elbow or behind ear)
- Apply product to the area with a brush
- Allow to dry
- Leave on for a minimum of 24 hours
- Explain positive and negative reactions
- Remove excess product
- Record results, products used and where placed on record card Explain how to interpret results of the patch test:
Positive – red, itchy, irritated, swelling, sore
Negative – no change to skin

- Product compatibility (layering cream base and aqua base colours)
- Adding texture (fullers earth, latex)
- Using additional items (net, lace, feathers, gems, gold leaf, silk flowers, false eyelashes)
- Applying transfers
Describe the possible contra-indications that prevent and restrict face and body art application:
Example of contra-indications that may prevent treatment – viral – herpes simplex, herpes zoster, warts, bacterial - impetigo fungal – tinea, parasitic infections – pediculosis, scabies, conjunctivitis, severe skin conditions and eye infections, severe acne, boils, hypersensitive skin, open cuts and abrasions, swelling
Examples of contra-indications that may restrict treatment – open cuts and abrasions, swelling, skin irritation, recent scar tissue, healed eczema and psoriasis, hyperkeratosis, skin allergies, bruising, scar tissue (two years for major operations and six months for a small scar), sunburn, hypersensitive skin, botox or dermal fillers (one week following treatment), styes, watery eyes, blepharitis
Describe the possible contra-actions that may occur during or after a make-up application:
False eye lashes – adhesive entering the eye, sensitivity, allergic reaction or burning sensation. Action to take – remove product immediately, use eye bath to flush eye, model to seek medical attention if problem persists, record reactions on the model’s record card
Allergic reaction to products – redness, swelling, rash, itching, burning or stinging sensation. Action to take – remove products immediately, clean area with water, apply cold compress, model to seek medical attention if problem persists, record reactions on model record card
Minor contra-actions – watery eyes – allow model time for eyes to recover when applying eye make-up, blot with tissue to avoid affecting other make-up, model perspiring – keep model cool and use a tissue to blot and prevent runs in make-up
Describe how to effectively respond to contra-actions:
Discontinue treatment, take remedial action Describe airbrush design systems and their benefits:
Gravity-fed airbrush – the cup or cavity is on top of the gun instead of below or at the side, which makes this system more effective as the gun requires less air pressure as the fluid is drawn downwards, it enables you to use less paint and can be more cost-effective
Siphon fed airbrush – this has a bottle that plugs in underneath the gun and requires slightly more air pressure to suck up the solution from the bottle; however it holds a greater volume of product, so can be sprayed for longer without the need to top up
8
Side-fed airbrush – this gun has a bottle or cup pushed in at the side allowing you to work at most angles. The position of the bottle at the side can help with fine detail work as the top of the airbrush is not obstructed by a cup. The ability to switch between cups and bottles makes a side-feed airbrush the most versatile
Single-action airbrush – these are usually cheaper and easier to use than other systems. The paint comes out at a pre-set rate when the trigger is depressed, controlled by an airflow regulator on the gun; the product flow stops when the trigger is released. Single-action airbrush systems tend to have the least amount of control over both airflow and volume of product dispensed
Dual-action airbrush – the dual action trigger has separate controls for air and liquid, giving better control over the paint flow and allowing for a finer spray
The compressor – the compressor should be compatible with the airbrush. Professional compressors should deliver a steady pressure. Understand the different types of compressors; mini-compressors, piston compressors, silent tank compressors; also the propellant/aerosol can

Skin cancer awareness
Please note this information will not be assessed for the achievement of this unit. Public awareness of skin cancer has never been higher, and yet skin cancer remains the
fastest growing cancer in the UK, especially amongst young people. The chances of a
positive outcome can be dramatically increased with early identification and diagnosis.
Professionals in hair, beauty, sports massage and health and wellbeing industries work
closely with clients and in many cases have sight of areas of skin which may not be easily
visible to the client. An informed awareness of the signs, symptoms and changes of
appearance to be aware of when checking for early signs of cancer is a crucial tool for the
conscientious practitioner in order to provide the most thorough service and in some cases,
possibly lifesaving information signposting.
Signs to look for when checking moles include utilising the ABCDE guide:
A - Asymmetry – the two halves of the area/mole may differ in their shape and not match.
B - Border – the edges of the mole area may be irregular or blurred and sometimes show
notches or look ‘ragged’.
C - Colour – this may be uneven and patchy. Different shades of black, brown and pink may
be seen.
D - Diameter – most but not all melanomas are at least 6mm in diameter. If any mole gets
bigger or changes see your doctor.
E - Elevation/evolving – elevation means the mole is raised above the surface and has an
uneven surface. Looks different from the rest or changing in size, shape or colour. Anyone
can get a suspicious mole or patch of skin checked out for free by the NHS by visiting their
doctor, who may then refer to a dermatologist (an expert in diagnosing skin cancer).
If you require any additional NHS information please refer to https://www.nhs.uk/be-clear-on-
cancer/symptoms/skin-cancer
If your learners are interested in learning more about skin cancer awareness alongside this
qualification, VTCT runs the following qualification: VTCT Level 2 Award in Skin Cancer
Awareness for Non-Healthcare Professionals.
This qualification has been specifically designed for those working in the sports massage,
health and wellbeing, beauty, hairdressing and barbering sectors. It will enable learners to
identify any changes to their client’s skin and to highlight those changes to the client using
appropriate language and communication skills. It will enable the learner to raise awareness
of skin cancer and signpost their clients to public information about skin cancer.
This qualification will enable hair, beauty and wellbeing professionals to gain the appropriate
knowledge and communication skills required to provide non-diagnostic, professional advice
and information to clients in a discrete, empathetic and confidential manner.

Assessment guidance
Assessors must use the amplified assessment guidance in this section to judge whether assessment criteria have been achieved in the practical assessment.
P15 Prepare a design plan to achieve the desired face and body art design
Learners must present a mood board to show research conducted to reflect the brief. They must also then develop a design plan to detail their make-up look and make reference to the products, equipment and techniques needed to complete the look.
P16 Prepare and check the area, equipment and products prior to the service
Learners must demonstrate that they have set up the work area to meet legal, hygiene and service requirements. Environmental conditions (heating and lighting) are suitable for the model and the service; the work area is well ventilated to avoid accumulation of overspray. Equipment and materials are all positioned for ease and safety of use. All tools are effectively cleaned and reassembled using the correct methods.
P17 Agree the service and outcomes
Learners must demonstrate that they have consulted with the model using appropriate questioning techniques as well as conducting visual and manual checks for contra-indications. Learners must explain the treatment in full to the model and obtain agreement to the finished design. Learners must correctly identify the model’s skin type and select appropriate products to achieve the desired result.
P18 Instruct the model
Learners must ensure that the model is fully prepared to receive the service. Hair must be protected from overspray with a disposable cap or styled in advance if required. Any clothing in the treatment area must be removed and safely stored during the face and body art application. The model’s modesty and privacy must be maintained at all times with any exposed areas covered until application. Accessories/jewellery must be removed and placed in a lined bowl on the trolley, within sight of the model, placed in safe place with the model’s belongings.
P19 Prepare the model’s skin with appropriate products and techniques
Learners must use effective cleansing techniques/products to remove fully all existing make-up from the model’s skin. The skin must then be toned, moisturised and primed if necessary to receive the make-up and enhance the finished result. A suitable barrier must be applied before the make-up to avoid staining. Where the design requires masking this must be applied to the skin in a safe and secure manner.
Learners must demonstrate that they have chosen the correct product type (silicone, cream, water or alcohol based) to suit the model’s skin type and which will produce the best result to meet the design plan. They must also show that they are able to select the additional make-up products required to complete the look.
17
P20 Apply the face and body art using safe and hygienic working practices
Learners must apply the chosen products correctly, testing in advance to ensure suitability. They must use all application techniques in a controlled way to achieve the desired effect. The face and body art must be applied in the correct sequence, using techniques that minimise the risk of products being wasted and adjusting the air pressure, if an airbrush is used, to suit the areas of application. The application must be finished using conventional make-up and additional items when required and sealed if necessary.
P21 Ensure the make-up applied meets the agreed design plan
Learners must demonstrate that all elements of the completed make up combine to achieve the desired look and meet the agreed design plan. This must be a reflection of the research and practice conducted. The completed make-up must meet the design brief and be original and suited to the model.
P22 Provide aftercare advice
Learners must demonstrate that they have advised the model how to remove the make-up using techniques and products suitable for the skin type and in line with manufacturer’s instructions. They must also advise the model of the expected longevity of the make-up and activities to avoid, ensuring durability. Learners must also advise the model that in the event of a contra–action occurring (e.g. itching, swelling, erythema) they must remove the make- up immediately, apply a cold compress to the skin, followed by a soothing product and contact their GP if symptoms persist/worsen.
P23 Update and maintain treatment records
Learners must demonstrate that they have accurately recorded the products, tools, equipment and techniques used to complete the face and body art application. Treatment records must also include information on the aftercare advice given, such as safe removal of false lashes, removal of skin make up and any additional items used and suitable products for home care to suit the model skin type. Learners must also obtain the model’s signature and feedback on the application.
P24 Prepare the treatment area for the next service
Learners must demonstrate that they have prepared the treatment area, by wiping down couch and trolley, wiping over all equipment with disinfectant, flushing out and cleaning the airbrush, sanitising any brushes used. Learners must also demonstrate they clean the lids or outside of bottles and return to storage all products and unused consumables, removing used towels for laundering, throwing away couch roll or used consumables,
refreshing the consumables used and ensuring ease of set up for the next therapist.
18
Resources
The special resources required for this unit are access to a real or realistic working environment which supports the provision of face and body art services. Learners must also have access to the specialist equipment and products required to complete face and body art applications.
Delivery guidance
Teachers are encouraged to use innovative, practical and engaging delivery methods to enhance the learning experience. Learners may benefit from:
Meaningful employer engagement so they relate what is being learned to the real world of work and understand commercial competency and product, tools and equipment usage
Work experience within the make-up industry so they can practise to hone their skills in a real environment
Using interactive information and technology, systems and hardware so they can learn about concepts and theories; research current trends; research product knowledge and produce visual aids
Links with other units
This unit is closely linked with the following units:
UCO28M Health and safety in the salon
Health and safety must be delivered first since it greatly underpins the present unit. Specifically, learners will be required to apply their knowledge and understanding of health and safety when preparing for and providing face and body art applications in real or realistic working environment.
UBT90M Model care and consultation
Model consultation before all make-up treatments is actually a legal requirement and failure to consult properly with models prior to treatment could invalidate insurance. It is essential that make-up artists elicit information from their models about their medical history, including any allergies as well as checking for contra-indications. The model consultation unit underpins all technical units within this qualification and must be delivered prior to the delivery of any make-up units.
UBT120M Anatomy and physiology for make-up services
Knowledge of the structure and function of the skin, as well as skin diseases and disorders most significantly underpin the knowledge and practical skills gained in this unit. Other elements of anatomy and physiology are also relevant to this unit in terms of understanding contra-indications to treatment as well as possible contra-actions.
