Everything will show up on the camera so make sure your skin is clean and moisturised, then apply a primer to give your foundation a smooth canvas.
This will help to make sure your skin looks flawless in photographs. Try and avoid high SPF in your foundation as this can photograph light on your skin.
Shimmers can look great if applied properly, but it is always safe to go with matte as it won’t reflect light, making it easier to photograph.
This will really frame your face, especially for blondes, as blonde eye brows can disappear in photographs.
Makeup doesn’t translate as vibrantly in photographs. I recommend doing your blush and lip colour more vibrant than you normally would.
Even if your make up is applied perfectly, if you look shiny in your pictures, it can ruin your whole look. I would suggest a translucent finish or setting powder. This can be used to touch up throughout the shoot.
When you put your makeup on sit by a window or in a room with lots of natural light, this will give you the best idea of what your makeup will look like in photographs.
Eyeliner and black mascara is a must for photoshoot makeup. When it comes to pictures black looks good on everyone. It also really makes your eyes standout.
I love false lashes they make your eyes look bigger and more defined but some photographers don’t like them as they can casual a shadow under the eyes so just bare this in mind.
Wearing a lip gloss over your lip colour will make your lips look luscious and full.
