Are you planning to have a camera moment soon? Engagement photos? Red carpet appearance? Wedding? Whatever the event, the following tips can help you achieve picture perfect makeup.
More Makeup: Don’t be afraid to pile on the foundation, powder, blush and other products used to achieve flawless finish. Make up for camera is always slightly overdone because at the end of the day it doesn’t capture that way so you actually need more to work with. Natural Light: Apply makeup up in natural light because this is how it will photograph. Regardless of the fact that it is piled on, you should apply and observe it in natural light-it looks great in natural light? It will surely look great on camera.
Primer: The job of a primer is to keep makeup in place, also to smooth and perfect skin. While taking photos or filming there is a lot of movement and you don’t want your makeup fading off/ or skin looking rough after a few minutes. Therefore, priming is an important aspect before applying mak up.
Avoid SPF: Most makeup products contain SPF which is made up of Titanium Dioxide or bits of Zinc Oxide which contain white particles that reflect on camera. Avoid lotions, primers, make up with spf, even if it’s just a teeny bit.
Brows: Our brows define and structure our face,take time to properly define and outline it by filling it in a little bit and cleaning up the edges just to make sure everything looks neat and well defined on camera.
Face: Define your face with blush, bronzers and a bit of contouring. Just applying foundation and powder all over can make your face look flat on camera.
Apply blush to the apples of your cheeks, use darker shades to contour and lighter shades of concealer/powder to highlight the bridge of your nose, under your eyes, on your forehead and chin. With these few tips you should be picture ready!
