1) I think I'm doing pretty well on my senior project so far. I think a deserve a P because I have met all the requirements and have done them proficiently but not enough for an AE.
2) I have done a great job on my research checks because I bring in reliable sources and am not missing anything in my research binder.
3) I would like to improve on my time management with service learning and my independent component. I still have a lot to do but I haven't been able to put in my full effort since I haven't been managing my time wisely enough.

Revised: Science Fair Proposal
1. What is your hypothesis?
If there is a specific ingredient in a mascara then it will be more waterproof than other mascaras.
2. Identify the dependent (produced), independent (manipulated) and control variables in your hypothesis.
The dependent is the mascara running. The independent is fluids used. The control is the same mascara.
3. What is the connection between your science fair project and your senior project EQ?
My connection between my science fair project and my senior EQ is that in order to be a good makeup artist you should know all your products. If someone came up to me asked which is the best waterproof mascara I would answer them right away and have facts behind it since I've tested them.
4. How will you perform the experiment? Include the equipment you plan on using.
I will first buy four different store brand waterproof mascaras. Then I will have four different dishes for each mascara. I will then mark the dish with each mascara and pour a solution on it.The let it stand for two minutes. After the two minutes are over I will check them to see which ones ran the most. After finding out which one runs the least I will have to find out the ingredient that makes it waterproof. With that ingredient I will have to compare it to other mascaras and see why it works or why it doesn't.
5. Which category will your project be listed under? (For a full list of categories, go to the iPoly Physics webpage, then to the Science Fair tab.) Chemistry.

Science Fair Proposal
1. What is your hypothesis?
My hypothesis is that the Cover Girl water proof mascara will work the best compared to other water proof mascaras.
2. Identify the dependent (produced), independent (manipulated) and control variables in your hypothesis.
My dependent variable is the four mascaras. My independent variable is how much mascara I put on.The control variable is the three test I will conduct.
3. What is the connection between your science fair project and your senior project EQ?
My connection between my science fair project and my senior EQ is that in order to be a good makeup artist you should know all your products. If someone came up to me asked which is the best waterproof mascara I would answer them right away and have facts behind it since I've tested them.
4. How will you perform the experiment? Include the equipment you plan on using.
I will first go out and by 4 different waterproof mascaras. The first test is the crying test which you could chop onion and see if the mascara runs down. The second test is humid test, which is when you get a hot bowl of water and put your face near it for 10 minutes. The third test is just water where there will be a bowl of room temperature water and you will dunk your head in the bowl. All mascaras will go through the tests.

What I've Learned So Far
1) What have you learned how to do since you started working on your senior project?
I've learned how to interview a person and better research skills. I haven't learned actually learned makeup skills but through my research I have learned how to properly put on mascara, the history of mascara, cleaning brushes, the difference between brushes and how your diet is key to the way your skin looks.
2) Post evidence of this accomplishment. It can be in the form of a picture, video, document, etc..
My 5 minute presentation poster.
3) What research helped you to do this and how?
Most significant research that I have is the book Bobbi Brown Makeup Manual. It has everything you need to know about makeup from the basics of cleaning to creating looks. I'm so glad I've found this and it makes other research sources more understandable.

Independent Component 1 Plan Approval
1) I would like to create instructional videos on different makeup looks. I can pick looks from a picture and try to recreate it through a step by step video. I will use either myself or another model to show it.
2) Each video will be a tutorial on a certain look. I will go through all the products used and which makeup brushes would be best . Then go through all the steps to achieve the goal of the look I chose.
By doing multiple videos I believe I can achieve my 30 hours. Depending on each look, the time will vary.
2) My independent component relates to my E.Q. by going through the process and struggle of an everyday makeup artist. I believe doing many tutorial videos I will be able to practice and develop my own signature look. Developing a signature is one of my answers to my E.Q.

Defining the Essential Question
(1) What is your EQ?
What is most important to becoming a successful makeup artist?
(2) Define the words in your EQ to make sure we are on the same page regarding what your EQ means.
My EQ is asking which out of all the ways of being a makeup artist such as keeping up with the latest trends, having clients coming back, geting hired for major jobs such as fashion shows or movies, and having a portfolio which would be the most important to be successful. By successful I mean having jobs, returning clients, celebrity clients, and being a head of other artist.
(3) What are some possible answers to your EQ so far?
A few possible answers I have are knowing your different makeup tools and knowing the use for each one.Setting your self apart from other artist. Having a good reputation because if word gets around that you complain a lot people won't hire you no matter how good your makeup skills are.
(4) What has been your most important source and why?
My most important source is the book Bobbi Brown Makeup Manuel by Bobbi Brown. It's been very important because it's clear on what each artist needs and everything you need to know to be a makeup artist.

Presentation Reflection
Q: In what way did the first interview affect your presentation? Please explain, be specific and use an example.
A: In my first interview Alicia said that being a makeup artist means being creative. I thought to myself how can I be creative about my presentation so instead of words I only put pictures on my poster. I drew and cut out all the individual pieces that represented a specific event and glued it all together.
Q: What would you say stood out about your presentation performance and why?
A: I stood out because I believe I was the only person who did the history of a product. I did the history of mascara because I knew that everyone who saw my presentation will walk out knowing the most random facts about mascara. Knowing that I felt pretty good about my presentation.
Q: What was the most challenging to do and why?
A: The most challenging thing to do was to find something interesting that I wouldn't talk about in my two hour presentation. I would of liked to add in my presentation how to apply mascara but I would need to talk about that in my two hour. Other than that another challenge was how it would be laid out on my poster but I'm glad how it came it.

Senior Project Presentation 1
Senior Project Presentation 1: Where did mascara come from?
Objective: Students will learn how mascara was derived from Water Cosmetique
Procedure:
1) I will ask the class if anyone knows where mascara came from.
2) I'll start off by saying that mustaches were a very popular thing in the 19th century. Since they were so popular there were many products that were made to shape and style them. Signs of gray appeared and if men wanted to hide it they would temporally stain their beard by using Water Cosmetique.
3) Visual: Poster with pictures of mascara/ Water Cosmetique
3) Explain what a Water Cosmetique is
4) How it was used in the theater
5) By 1910 it started to be called mascara and was now used outside the theater and being manufactured for everyday use.
6) I'll conclude it by asking if everyone understood how Water Cosmetique became mascara and if anyone knows how to properly apply it. If no one has the correct procedure of applying mascara I will explain how to do so.

Senior Project Topic
Q: What is your topic?
A: My senior topic is being a Make-Up Artist.
Q: Why?
A: I've always love make-up. I was fascinated by the colors and designs that you can put on people. At a regular job you do the same old thing and eventually get bored, but being a make-up artist you have to be creative and you're always on your feet. Since you're always doing something different and helping people this occupation has really intrigued me to try it.
Q: What do you hope to accomplish after studying this topic all year?
A: I hope that by the end of the year I will have a greater understanding of what I am getting myself into and that my make-up skills will be at a professional level. I also hope that when I graduate from I-Poly I will walk out with a head start on my future career.
