Hello everybody!
Today’s topic is related to makeup and skin care so I thought of sharing some ideas on how to prepare the skin before makeup. This material can be considered as a training material for models and persons who are preparing for a photo session and contains a list of recommendations that can be applied on a daily basis. Since our latest activity involved a lot of outdoor activity at low temperatures, models can use the advice below for successful sessions.
Here is our list:
1. Drink water and be hydrated.
2. If possible, don’t stay in the sun/wind before the photo shooting, the makeup artist can’t work miracles on a flaky face.
3. It is very important to clean the face at least two times a day, once in the morning and once in the evening. This routine should include cleansing, toner and face creams. A scrub is recommended at least twice a week to remove dead cells. Choose your face cream according to your skin type and condition. For example for moisturizers a dry skin will need a heavier, oil-based moisturizer, a water-based moisturizer will be ok for a normal skin and oil-free and water based product for an oily and combination skin. Sensitive skin benefits from specially designed products, fragrance and dye-free.
4. Use an eye cream to combat puffiness and dark circles, if needed.
5. It is ok to layer different textures
6. If in summer, use a skin protector with high SPF. This will prevent the skin from sun damage.
7. If in winter, do not use an hydrating cream in the morning as the cold outside may freeze the water particles and cause skin irritation. Instead, emollient products, like colloidal or gel textures. You can use hydrating products in the evening without any problems.
I hope you find the recommendations useful and applicable for best results. Stay tuned, we
are preparing interesting posts for the next days!
