I bought this for my daughter for Christmas because she's into Theatre and she loves it! It comes with blush, base, grey hair color, liquid latex, spear gum, spear gum remover, translucent powder,fake blood, a bruising kit and other things too. She has never had any training but does a phenomenal job. I think it is just that easy with this make up kit. A person who has experience with theatrical make up told her it was a really good kit.
