One Month Recap: Fill Me with Colour Project Empowers Aspiring Professional Makeup Artists
It has been an incredible month with the participants of the Fill Me with Colour project, an upskilling initiative by the Valerie Cares Foundation. This program aims to empower aspiring professional makeup artists by providing them with comprehensive training and valuable resources. Let's take a closer look at their journey so far.
The project kicked off with a general orientation and contract review, ensuring that all participants were familiar with the program's guidelines and expectations. Each participant received a training textbook, workbook, and a safeguarding orientation to ensure a safe and inclusive learning environment. To add to their excitement, they also received tote bags, along with their very own CVL Beauty brush sets, generously provided by CVL Beauty Ltd.
The training curriculum is thoughtfully designed to cover a wide range of essential topics. Participants delved into the exploration of self-identity, both from a social and mental perspective. They learned about the importance of building a positive self-identity and how it impacts their confidence and work as makeup artists. Personal and occupational hygiene in the beauty industry was also emphasized, highlighting the significance of maintaining cleanliness and professionalism in their practice.
Building healthy human relations and effective communication skills were addressed to enhance their client interactions. Time management and punctuality, crucial skills in the fast-paced beauty industry, were taught to ensure their success in managing appointments and delivering exceptional service. Participants also received training on makeup station setup, understanding the significance of creating a well-organized and efficient workspace. Additionally, they were introduced to various beauty tools and accessories, equipping them with the knowledge of selecting, purchasing and utilizing the right products for different purposes.
Our educators utilized a dynamic range of teaching methods, including group work, discussions, role plays, and case studies. This interactive approach encouraged participants to actively engage, visualize scenarios, and learn from shared experiences. To support their learning journey, training tools such as flipcharts, markers, and printouts were provided. Each participant received a CVL Beauty workbook and their respective textbooks, which serve as valuable resources throughout the training.
As the first month of the program concludes, the Valerie Cares Foundation values feedback from the participants. We have created a group chat to foster a supportive and healthy community where participants and educators can connect and share their experience even after class. Additionally, feedback forms have been distributed to gather insight on each topic, the learning environment, teaching materials, educators, and overall knowledge gained. This feedback will help the foundation further enhance the program and cater to the evolving needs of aspiring makeup artists.
At Valerie Cares Foundation, we believe that learning should not be limited to the classroom. That's why we organized an exciting Activity Day for our participants to foster camaraderie, healthy competition, and reinforce their understanding of the foundation and program. It was a day filled with fun, learning, and bonding, as we put their knowledge to the test in a dynamic and engaging environment.
Activity Day provided an opportunity for participants to demonstrate their understanding of the topics we covered throughout the month. We carefully selected various activities that encompassed important aspects such as safeguarding, information about Valerie Cares Foundation, and table setup techniques. By engaging in hands-on exercises and interactive discussions, participants were able to showcase their knowledge and skills in a practical and enjoyable way.
The Fill Me with Colour project has ignited the passion and determination of these aspiring makeup artists, empowering them to pursue their dreams with confidence. The Valerie Cares Foundation remains committed to their growth and will continue to provide guidance, support, and resources as they progress in their journey.
Stay tuned for more updates as we follow the inspiring stories of these talented young women on their path to success in the beauty industry.
