    When using make-up for oily skin, what kind of product should you use?

    • Calcium base products

    • Oil base products

    • Mineral base products

    • Water base products

    Correct Answer
    A. Water base products
    Explanation
    Water-based products are the most suitable for oily skin because they do not contain any oil or greasy ingredients that can further contribute to the oiliness of the skin. Instead, water-based products are lightweight and non-comedogenic, meaning they won't clog the pores or exacerbate acne. These products typically have a matte finish and can help control oil production throughout the day, keeping the skin looking fresh and shine-free.

    [203.1] When using make-up for dry skin, what kind of product should you use?

    • Water base products

    • Oil base products

    • Mineral base product

    • Protein base product

    Correct Answer
    A. Oil base products
    Explanation
    When using make-up for dry skin, it is recommended to use oil-based products. Oil-based products provide additional moisture to the skin, helping to hydrate and nourish dry skin. These products help to create a barrier on the skin, preventing moisture loss and keeping the skin hydrated throughout the day. They also provide a smoother and more even application, giving a dewy and radiant finish to the skin. Therefore, oil-based products are the best choice for individuals with dry skin as they provide the necessary hydration and help to combat dryness.

    When applying make-up, which color will help make the eye appear bigger?

    • White

    • Black

    • Brown

    • Red

    Correct Answer
    A. White
    Explanation
    White is the correct answer because it is a light color that reflects light, making the eye appear brighter and more open. By applying white eyeliner or eyeshadow on the waterline or inner corner of the eye, it creates an illusion of larger eyes. White also contrasts with the natural color of the eye, creating the appearance of more space and making the eye appear bigger.

    What is the first step to applying make-up?

    • Foundation

    • Eye shadow

    • Cleansing

    • Blush

    Correct Answer
    A. Cleansing
    Explanation
    The first step to applying make-up is cleansing. This involves removing any dirt, oil, and impurities from the skin to create a clean canvas for the make-up application. Cleansing helps to ensure that the make-up adheres properly and lasts longer. It also helps to prevent clogged pores and breakouts. By starting with a clean face, the make-up can be applied more smoothly and evenly, resulting in a more flawless finish.

    The falling out stage of hair is called...

    • Anogen

    • Catagen

    • Telogen

    Correct Answer
    A. Catagen
    Explanation
    The correct answer is catagen. Catagen is the transitional stage of the hair growth cycle where the hair follicle shrinks and detaches from the dermal papilla. During this stage, the hair stops growing and becomes a club hair. It is a brief phase that lasts for about 2-3 weeks before entering the telogen phase, where the hair is fully detached and ready to fall out.

  • 9. 

    [204.1] The growth stage of hair is called...

    • Anagen

    • Catagen

    • Telogen

    Correct Answer
    A. Anagen
    Explanation
    The growth stage of hair is called anagen. During this stage, the hair follicles are actively producing new cells and the hair is growing. This is the longest stage of the hair growth cycle, lasting for several years. After the anagen stage, the hair enters the catagen stage, where growth slows down and the hair follicle begins to shrink. Finally, the hair enters the telogen stage, where it rests and eventually falls out, making way for new hair to grow in the anagen stage again.

    Sun exposure will produce...

    • Vitamin A

    • Vitamin B

    • Vitamin C

    • Vitamin D

    Correct Answer
    A. Vitamin D
    Explanation
    Sun exposure is known to stimulate the production of vitamin D in the body. When the skin is exposed to sunlight, it triggers a chemical reaction that converts a compound called 7-dehydrocholesterol into vitamin D3. This form of vitamin D is then converted into its active form by the liver and kidneys. Vitamin D plays a crucial role in maintaining healthy bones and teeth, as it helps the body absorb calcium and phosphorus. It also supports immune function and has been linked to various other health benefits. Therefore, sun exposure is essential for the production of vitamin D in the body.

    What is an appendage to the skin?

    • Nail & hair

    • Cells

    • Blood

    • Veins

    Correct Answer
    A. Nail & hair
    Explanation
    Nail and hair are appendages to the skin because they are derived from the epidermis, which is the outermost layer of the skin. Both nails and hair are made up of a protein called keratin and serve various functions. Nails protect the fingertips and enhance fine motor skills, while hair helps regulate body temperature and protect the scalp from UV radiation. These appendages are not considered separate entities from the skin but are closely connected and grow from specialized cells within the skin.

    How far should a steamer be placed?

    • 10 inch

    • 18 inch

    • 20 inch

    • 28 inch

    Correct Answer
    A. 18 inch
    Explanation
    A steamer should be placed at a distance of 18 inches. This distance is likely determined based on safety and functionality considerations. Placing the steamer too close to other objects or surfaces could pose a fire hazard or cause damage. On the other hand, placing it too far away may result in ineffective steaming. Therefore, 18 inches seems to be the optimal distance for ensuring both safety and efficiency while using a steamer.

    Which colored eyeliner will help make the eyes appear bigger/protrude more?

    • Dark

    • Light

    • Translucent

    • None of the above

    Correct Answer
    A. Dark
    Explanation
    Dark colored eyeliner can help make the eyes appear bigger/protrude more because it creates a contrast with the natural color of the eyes. This contrast can create an illusion of depth and make the eyes stand out more. Light colored eyeliner may not have the same effect as it can blend in with the natural color of the eyes. Translucent eyeliner may not provide enough definition to make the eyes appear bigger. None of the above options would be the best choice for making the eyes appear bigger/protrude more.

    • Hide troubled areas

    • Minimizing the appearance of make-up

    • Enhance facial features

    • Nothing

    Correct Answer
    A. Enhance facial features
    Explanation
    Highlighting in make-up is the technique used to draw attention to specific areas of the face and enhance their appearance. It involves using a lighter shade of make-up or a shimmery product to bring forward certain features such as the cheekbones, brow bones, or the bridge of the nose. By adding brightness and luminosity to these areas, highlighting creates a youthful and radiant effect, making the facial features stand out and giving the face a more sculpted and defined look.

    Permanent hypopigmentation (lightening in skin) on darker skin is usally caused by...

    • Facelift

    • Chemical peel

    • Botox

    • Scar/mole removal

    Correct Answer
    A. Chemical peel
    Explanation
    Permanent hypopigmentation (lightening in skin) on darker skin is usually caused by a chemical peel. A chemical peel is a cosmetic procedure that involves the application of a chemical solution to the skin, which causes the top layers of the skin to peel off, revealing new, smoother skin underneath. In some cases, especially on darker skin tones, the chemical peel can cause permanent hypopigmentation, resulting in lighter patches of skin. This is because the chemical peel may disrupt the production of melanin, the pigment responsible for skin color, leading to a loss of pigmentation in certain areas.

    A disposable spatula is used to prevent contamination in various settings such as laboratories, kitchens, and medical facilities. By using a disposable spatula, the risk of cross-contamination between different substances or samples is minimized. This is especially important in sensitive environments where maintaining cleanliness and preventing the spread of diseases or contaminants is crucial. The disposable nature of the spatula ensures that it is used only once and then discarded, reducing the chances of transferring harmful substances or bacteria.

    Which layer of the epidermis has a continuous layer of cells that always divide?

    • Germinativum

    • Spinosum

    • Granulosum

    • Corneum

    Correct Answer
    A. Germinativum
    Explanation
    The germinativum layer of the epidermis is responsible for continuous cell division. This layer contains cells called basal cells that constantly divide to produce new cells. These new cells then move up to the upper layers of the epidermis, where they undergo differentiation and maturation. The germinativum layer is crucial for the renewal and regeneration of the epidermis, ensuring that it remains intact and functional.

    • Cadherin

    • Plasma

    • Desmoplakin

    • Desmosome

    Correct Answer
    A. Desmosome
    Explanation
    Desmosomes are structures found in the epidermis that hold the upper cells together. They are composed of proteins called desmoplakins, which link the cytoskeletons of adjacent cells. Cadherin is a type of protein involved in cell adhesion, but it is not specifically responsible for holding the upper cells of the epidermis together. Plasma is the liquid component of blood and is not related to cell adhesion. Therefore, the correct answer is desmosome.

    • Lysosomes

    Correct Answer
    A. Lamellar
    Explanation
    Cells located in the granulosum layer of the skin that produce intercellular lipid (fat) are called "lamellar." Lamellar cells are responsible for producing and secreting lipids, which play a crucial role in maintaining the skin's barrier function and preventing water loss. These lipids form a protective layer on the skin's surface, keeping it moisturized and preventing the entry of harmful substances.
