Hello my fellow beauty lovers.
We all have those few moments in life where we need the absolute perfect mak up … for a picture. I am not talking about simple selfies, no. I am talking about those pictures you want to frame and keep forever.
I am invited to attend the wedding day of my best friend and I know for sure that this madman hired 4 photographers. I already took care of the present, my outfit and my plus one, which leaves me with one thing: What the hell do I put on my face?
I’ve been browsing the net for ages and I can now confidently make up a short list of tricks to achieve the best look for that special occasion.
1
Matte is a must. Please take a huge step away from shimmery products. You won’t need your highlighter or glittery blush. Those will much likely reflect the light and turn your head into a full-blown disco ball.
2
Say no… to SPF. Primers and foundations that contain SPF should be avoided on that night or day. Those formulas will cast a ghost-like appearance on your face.
3
More is more. The camera light will definitely wash your face out in terms of colors. So don’t be scared of a touch of drama. It will look great in the photo.
4
Put on your makeup shortly before the event so that you can adjust your makeup to the given lighting conditions.
5
When you’re done with your makeup, set it with a yellow-based powder, not a translucent one.
I hope I could enlighten you with a useful trick or two. See you next time.
Yours truly,
Lana
