For the first class, students should think about what kind of look they are interested in learning how to do on themselves. For the second class, they will need cosmetics to use on their own face. What products they choose will be determined by the kind of look they are trying to achieve, their skin sensitivity and your budget. You do not need to spend a fortune on brand name makeup. In fact, most of the time for stage work, I use Wet-n-Wild because I am using products that I wouldn't use in real life. But if your child has very sensitive skin, you should take that into consideration. Also, don't forget to get eye makeup remover. The rest can come off using soap/cold cream/makeup remover wipes/baby wipes and a gentle skin cleanser. If your child has similar complexion and coloring to you and you are ok with her/him borrowing yours, that's fine too.
