Hi, guys! I hope you all are well! Firstly, I am sorry for being a bit MIA and missing Saturdays post, I had to attend a family event and was unable to write a post I was happy with. But to make up for it I’ll be posting this post and one other today! I have some very exciting news I’d like to share! I’ve recently enrolled into

Anyway, I have some very exciting news I’d like to share! I’ve recently enrolled into an SFX course at my school, QC Makeup Academy. They offer amazing discounts for students but because of the Halloween season, it was further discounted. Anyway, I thought some of you might find this interesting and I am very excited so I am going to show you what’s in my course box!

4 SFX Assignment Books + DVDs

These are the course studies. The SFX course has four units, where you’ll learn about:

Woochie Bald Cap in Beige

A basic bald cap. I’m really looking forward to learning how to work with these!

Graftobian Severe Trauma Wheel

Graftobian is one of the most popular SFX makeup brands so I was really happy to see that I received a few of their products. This is such a versatile product I’m sure I’ll get a lot of use out of it.

Graftobian RMG Bald Cap Wheel

Same product as the trauma wheel but for concealing bald caps.

Graftobian Crepe Wool

I had no idea what crepe wool was before receiving this but it’s actually for doing facial hair! This is another item I can’t wait to work with because it’s just so cool.

Graftobian HD Glamour Creme Foundation

I received a red shade and a black shade. These will be used for adding depth to faux wounds, etc

Black Stipple Sponge

SFX version of the beauty blender!

Cinema Secrets FX Blood

For fresh wounds. I can really tell this stuff will be really cool to work with and learn about.

Woochie Blood Gel

More of a gel form than Cinema Secrets’ blood, for older wounds.

Set of 5 Latex Prosthetics

Another item I’m excited to learn about, prosthetics.

 

Anyway, I’m very happy with what I got, I will definalty need to get a few more items. Please let me know if you’d be interested something like “SFX Haul” etc when I add more items to my kit 🙂 I can’t wait to start my courses and I am so happy and thankful to be enrolled in the course!
