5 Powerful Make-up Secrets For Glamour Images
Glamour photography boasts many nuances, yet there is one which is frequently under-estimated – I’m talking about make-up. With make-up it’s much simpler to accentuate or conceal some details of your model’s face, make her look enigmatic and even more beautiful. There are countless ways to apply make-up and benefit from it, so nothing will limit your creativity. Make-up plays sometimes a vital part on the beauty shots, so we will pay attention to some really important issues on this matter.
The majority of beauty photographers practise two approaches to deal with the issue of make-up:
– they allow the model to develop her own artistic image and apply make-up;
– they open up their wallet and hire a visage pro.
however, none of those ways is perfect – your model may not even know that her casual make-up could well be “washed away” by studio lights and become almost invisible on the photograph; cosmetics specialists often have quite high fees and little time. In any case theres always a chance that the result will turn out to be not as perfect as you imagined.
Guess what every glamour photographer needs to know some basics of make-up for sessions that will allow improving the quality or even perfecting it to produce top quality Glamour Photographs.
1. Face powder. When it comes to powder, you cannot possibly overdo it – feel free to use a plenty of it. Powder gives the face of your model a mat finish that will definitely add up to the picture and make her look more attractive, minimize greasy gloss and other minor misfortunes. Even if your model doesnt use powder in her everyday life, she should do so for this occasion.
2. Facial make-up. For studio shoots you should normally use darker cosmetics than one would in life. The fact is that lighting usually has a somewhat diminishing effect on cosmetics, so you should make sure it is noticeable and definite, but not too heavy. Never-the-less, facial make-up shouldn’t be too distinct – it has to be applied in a smooth and subtle manner. To create an impression of an oval-shaped face, one needs to apply cosmetics under the chin and below the cheekbone.
3. Color of lips. According to the rule of darker shades, your model should wear the lipstick which is one shade deeper than normally. Black lipstick is not very appropriate for a glamour photo, so mind it. In addition, don’t put much stock in light lipstick, as it will most likely disappear on the photo.
4. Applying eye shadow. This one should be lighter, unless you want your model to look as if shed had a sleepless night with a bottle of bourbon I wouldn’t. Lighter hues make the eyes more noticeable and create an impression of liveliness; it’s likely to work better than dark and obscure eye shadow.
5. Heavy but neat. Using much cosmetics doesn’t mean you are allowed to make a mess of things your model needs time, so let her have it to produce some good-looking results. To save some more time, the model can work on her looks at home, before she heads for the studio. To prevent any unpleasant complications, it is advisable for your model to have a make-up case with her.
If you mind these pieces of advice, both the artist and the model will benefit. You will end up with great shots and much satisfaction from a hard day’s work, looking forward to conquer new heights of Artistic Glamour Photography. Enjoy the little things even if it means spending more time on make-up!
