makeup, lighting and......


Makeup & Type of Light

You need to know the type of light in which the proposed make-up will be seen, this is important when deciding upon the correct choice of make-up colors, because the appearance of color may change according to the type of light. Is the make-up to be seen in daylight, in a fluorescent light or incandescent light

For example, an incandescent light or filament produces a much more yellowy light than a fluorescent or neon light. This should be taken in to consideration in choosing her make-up to be used. The following lighting conditions and most common types of bulb are:

1. Daylight
When white light falls on an object, it absorbs some color and reflect other color; it is the reflected color that we see. Thus, an object that we see as red is an object that absorbs the colors in white light except red. A White object that reflect most of the light that fall upon it; a black object absorbs most of the light that fall on it.

Subtle colors should be chosen as daylight intensives color

2. Incandescent light
Evening make-up is usually seen in incandescent light; produced by filament lamp. This produces an excess of red and yellow light, which create a warm, flattering effect. Almost all colors can be use in this light, except that brown and purples will appear darker. Choose a lighter foundation than normal to reflect the light, and use frosted high lighting products where possible for the same reason. Evening make-up will appear very obvious and dramatic in daylight

Brown and purple should be avoided, as these will appear darker. Most other color can be worn

3. Fluorescent light
If make-up is to be worn in the office, it will probably be seen under fluorescent light. This contain an excess of blue and green, which have a cool effect on the make-up, the red in the face does not show up and the face can look drained of color.

Red, yellow and dark colors should be avoided as fluorescent light intensive them; blue tones should be chosen

Why Less is More?


Softly Blended Eyeliner

Heavily lined eyes tend to look small and closed. By applying and blending, you get a cleaner, more define look.

Light Mascara

Wearing too much mascara makes 99% of us look older. Heavy lashes can cast shadow under the eyes, accentuating fine line and creating dark circles

Subtle Eyeshadow
Wearing too much eyeshadow draw attention to your makeup instead to your face

Natural Brow

Why you shouldn’t over pluck Tweezing should expose the brow bone slightly so that natural light hits it, giving your eyes height and brightness. Tweezing brows into the thin lines or half moons robs your face of one its strongest features, younger women naturally have fuller brows, it gives softness
