All About The Esthetician Practical Exam Kit

By Peter Wright


Working as an esthetician is no mean feat. Its definitely more than art, in that it has a pint of science and practicality thrown in. In fact, it even has a state run board examination. But before we drone on and on about the needed skills, attitudes, certificates, and whatnot to make it far in this field, theres one nifty thingamajig it wouldnt do to forget. Were talking about the esthetician practical exam kit.

This all around kit contains all the tools, equipment, and implements needed by every esthetician. Inside its nooks and compartments can be found all sorts of general to some specific esthetic supplies. And these arent at all sourced shoddily, moreover. In fact, they are sourced with every bit of quality, care, and practicality in mind.

Being an esthetician is a responsible job. Its not just all about making your clients more presentable and beautiful on special occasions, though thats certainly the most basic job description. No, its a responsible job in that youre putting in quite a considerable stake at hand, since there are all the safety and sanitary concerns to keep in mind.

Therefore, most employers and clients demand licenses and certifications from a career esthetician. These are all granted when one passes a board approved practical examination. These exist and differ considerably in every state, though particular elements certainly stand out in common.

However, there are commonalities in that the moot point is the observation of proper infection control. Of course, these are all for intuitive reasons. Needless to say, cosmetology and beautification can be an invasive procedure. So beauticians should see to it that tools arent reused on customers without proper washing and sterilization. Basic enough, though being lazy and especially being uninformed of consequences can preclude their observance.

The needed tools to populate your kit depends on the examination board, so make sure that you check their list to see whether you have sourced some or all of them. Common esthetician supplies include a mannequin and table clamp, though some examinations would perhaps require a live model. Theres the cleaning face cream, astringents and toners, and also the massage creams and fabric strips. There are likewise the tweezers, soft and hard wax products, wax heaters, facial masks, and the moisturizer, plus the common makeup implements.

Then they get down to the practical bits. This includes dealing with or removing superfluous body hair, using a soft wax removal procedure or some such. And theres also the tweezing of the models eyebrows.

And then there are the facial procedures. It may go on step by step and should of course start with the toning and cleansing of the face. A facial massage may also be factored in. This is a specialized procedures that require the mastering of specific massage strokes, especially the four most common. The esthetician may also be asked to perform the proper applications and removal of treatment masks and other kinds of protection. All these steps are not just off the bat performances but also requires and in depth analysis of the particularities of the model, such as the face shape, skin type, and some such.

Lastly, theres the makeup application and the aftercare and clean up. The type of makeup applied to the model should be particularly well suited to her physical characteristics. For the applied implements, there should be the foundation, face powder, cheek color, eye shadow, eyeliner, mascara, brow color, and lip color and liner. Sometimes, corrective makeup is applied when necessary. All in all, that includes a whole host of pragmatics, practicalities, and some such analyses and toggling according to given conditions and specifications. Therefore, aside from all the learning, techniques, and methods to learn by heart, it would also do to source all your needed implements beforehand and arrange them in your estheticians kit.
