How to Apply Makeup for Photos

4. Apply Eyeliner and Mascara to Highlight Eyes

• Using a thin brush draw a slender line close to the eyelashes of the upper eyelid. You can start drawing a line from the corner of the eye. It will be better to use a pencil eyeliner to get the desired effect.
• You can get some dramatic effect by creating a wing by extending the line a bit on the outer end of the eyelid.
• You can also opt for false eyelashes if you want to enhance the look of the eyes. Finish the eye makeup by applying the mascara.Apply the second coat of mascara if you want to make the lashes prominent.

5. Contouring

To get the right contouring, you will need to invest in high-quality  highlighter, bronzer, and blush.

The Procedure

• Apply highlighter on the mid-portion of the nose, just above the cheeks and the inner corner of the eyelids. After the highlighter applies blush close to your skin tone on the cheeks.
• Apply bronzer on the temple area, below the cheekbones, on the jawline and either side of the nose. Using fan brush blend well to get a radiant look when flashes are on.

6. Do Your Lips

• To get the perfect photogenic face, you need to do your lips. So, make sure to use the best lip moisturizer, lip liner or pencil and lipstick on the lips.
• If you want your lipstick to last long, moisturize the lips using a good moisturizer. Blot off any excess moisturizer before applying lip liner.
• Use a lip liner which is a bit darker than the lipstick you are going to use. Now apply the lipstick within the border created by the liner.
• After applying your lipstick rub your lips together to spread it evenly. Using a tissue blot off the excess lipstick.
• Once you complete make-up set the make-up using setting spray so that it stays for a longer duration.
