Natural Day Makeup

These were my first jabs at a full makeup application on someone else. I just realized it really takes a lot of hard work! Different faces have different structures which you have to balance when putting on products. I have so much more to learn and will be needing lots and lots of practice, esp. on eyebrow shaping and lining the lash line. Thanks to Mia & Cathy for agreeing to be my models on this day =D

Lessons Learned 

- Always take photos after cleansing the face, not when the model comes in since it's possible there's still some trace of makeup on the face even when it looks natural.

- Use black color to fill up very thin eyebrows with light strokes. Browns will only look very fake on the skin beneath. 

- Don't be afraid to trim the eyebrows & curl the lashes but be very careful when pressing the curler to avoid catching the skin!

- Balance & blend well the eyeshadow on both eyes. Take note how it looks like on the eyelids when closed. 

- Use a no-color loose powder to avoid affecting the foundation shade that was customized for the model's skin tone.
