More and more often it happens that, brides makeup for the wedding day, ask a makeup incisive, that is 'clearly visible in the picture', trend probably born from the contagion television operated by TV shows that envisage the use of color on eyes and mouth so often abundant and indiscriminate.

In general, I tend to recommend them a light makeup and natural, still leaving freedom of choice to the customer.

The creation of a make-up like what you see in the picture, in fact, does not imply a less secure job, but a more careful and wise use of cosmetics.

The secret of this trick is to remove, Instead of adding, or deleting minor flaws and blemishes of the skin creating a base first of all treated, making 'Tabula Rasa’ on the face, transforming it into a blank canvas before you begin to apply the color.

In this way, you will no longer need to use excessive colors to bring out the eyes and / or mouth, but only enough to get away with some shade from the base color, keeping shades of pink or amber, already naturally present on the face.

Using a pencil slightly darker shade for the lips or contour blurring the eyeliner around the eyes, we will highlight one or the other, making the natural effect and is perfectly readable by camera, and the photographs taken for the service.

The thing I like most about my job.. it's my job! See how much able to change the face and the characteristic traits of a person with nuance and chiaroscuro (and sometimes also adding some piece :D) it amazes me every time, and fills me with satisfaction.
Gabriela, 17 years, Brazil and Italy for the first time, came under contract for a major agency in Milan, is in its infancy in the modeling career, but in a few months has already learned all the secrets that are to be part of this world: is friendly and helpful, but with a strong character, patient during the professional make-up and in front of the goal, is willing to brave the cold late autumn despite being accustomed to the climate and temperatures much milder.
The morning runs away fast, makeup required is a make up base “nude-look”, that I often use as a base for bridal makeup, due to its ability to highlight the best features of the face iluminando eyes and hiding minor imperfections.
The time to carry out the shooting on location, you can find here: NextDoorModel.com/yellow-border-line-grabriela-godoi and returns to the makeup.
The basis of the corrective makeup has remained unchanged, I proceed then giving a little’ to emphasize the eyes (con uno smokey eyes nero) and mouth (Already, however, colorful), to make it all a bit’ more glamorous and sensual.

This is the result..

-“What are you doing tonight ?”
The question, even if thrown in a little’ suddenly, demanded an answer states that the Dony was waiting for, probably cuddling one of her cats, on the other side of the chat interface.
“..nothing in particular” typed carelessly, waiting to receive an invitation to a pizza among friends that was active for too long.
-“how about Venice? per uno shooting. I have to give an answer to an American photographer who contacted me, and go alone I broke ..”
Venice has never been in the top ten of my ideal cities, nor to stay, let alone to live, universally recognized as dear (the famous 15 Euros for a coffee in Piazza San Marco are not a legend) and always crowded with tourists often wandering aimlessly.
-“..of course, all expenses paid, paid work, and take my car.” finish the sentence Dony, facing a moment of my hesitation.
“There are.” The answer slipped between his lips fast, had not yet passed by the brain when it came out of the mouth.
Anything would be better than a 'nothing special'. In the company of a friend like Dony also, the time spent on the freeway would fly, we would have had time to update us on our stories, and maintain mastered our English, all in one evening.

The evening itself, was better than all my expectations.
Critsey, the photographer who had engaged in the work, proved to be a nice person, intelligent and sympathetic, over that of good talent in the photograph.
And despite the set of the improvised, the results were not long to wait. I realized the makeup mirror with my suitcase leaning against the table in a bar, near the station Saint Lucia, surrounded by curious, some tourists Asia and some passerby who asked me to be rigged turn.
It was fun and unusual, so as to leave me in a strange mood, also during the following set, by making me appreciate what 39 years almost ignored.
Venice at night changing face. And it is mysterious and beautiful.

The realization of the makeup:
Also for this make up, I chose to use fatty bases by powdering, more stable and opaque compared to classical water based.
Lying on the bottom of the same skin color Dony, however, already free from imperfections, I made light and shade with the classic technique of chiaroscuro. To handle the face and give a more natural, I also applied a touch of blush (blush) in the vicinity of the cheekbones.
The eye makeup was instead creating chiaroscuro reinforcing the already present with a bronze-colored powder eyeshadow, evident on the upper eyelid and just mentioned on the bottom, one-third from the outer edge of the eye, about.
The eyes were placed in evidence even slightly shaded with black eyeliner, thin applied only on the upper eyelid, in the vicinity of the root of the eyelashes, only then finished with mascara.
On the lips I gave free rein to a beautiful red access, gradient darker near the edges and slightly surrounded in clear to increase the volume.

Not only the sensitivity of the wedding makeup, or the charm and sweetness of make up fashion & glamour on these pages, but also a bit’ of blood and nastiness.
The idea of ​​Frank and Mary to see each other with a little’ of blood on him has been reworked by me and Gabriel in a rather minimalist (away from the atmosphere pulp and splatter horror films the 80s and 90s) domains in which realism and conceptualism.
In 'play your game’ (Pictured above) Mery is playing his life in a game of cards with the always fascinating vampire Francesca, and the opening bet of the game comes down fresh from her wrist.

The make up of the characters in the scene is light and almost neutral: has always been made with funds made fat light, neutral colors, eye shadows red and rosé, colored contact lenses to make it look flat and bright, and all helped to make the atmosphere quite surreal.

The wounds were instead made by molding: In fact, the model made of plasticine, I got the impression with a silicone rubber for polyaddition. Then I created a movie on the footprint in cap mat you can easily blend with the skin, sucessivamente and I filled it with bondo, which has maintained transparency.
The result is an effect of extreme realismoin which the prosthesis has no edges and whose color blends naturally (thanks to semitrapsarenza) with that of the complexion.

This photo set is the brainchild of Gabriel Bertolini, loosely inspired by an article published in Kurv Magazine, and of course, the work of all of us.
The idea of ​​the Gothic white, that lends itself well to the soft lighting of the set and the magnificent interpretation of Francesca, is embodied in a makeup veiled in tones very clear, whitish.

On the basis of a lighter color I made light the light and shade of the face, a little’ more pronounced than on the eyes, already deep and still highlighted also by the false eyelashes.
For the mouth I thought of a nice bright red color, adequately shaded at the edges to give it more roundness to the shape and volume.
Eyebrows were raised slightly with the light and shade, allegerite defined but with the light color of the base. The ethereal gaze,finally, was accomplished by applying to Francesca of contact lenses of intense blue color.

The result is a trick of the light but at the same time based on dark eyes and mouth, gothic and ethereal, that highlights the beauty of Francesca, that giving something of melancholy.

From an idea of ​​Valentina and the work of all of us is born this set.
In an enchanted location, a cross between a fairy tale and a dream, Giada girl back, and runs between games by flying his balloon…
Despite the chiaroscuro also strong background, everything is soft, light, delicate; the trick is therefore built according to this prerogative.
Similar to wedding makeup, Paving the basis, I reinforced light and shadow on the eyes, as well as in general on the face. The colors used are reminiscent and mix well with skin tones, the design of the lips and eyebrows was treated and finished with natural colors, lips polished also with a little’ of clear gloss, the eye in the finished watercolor drawing.

The result is a light and bright makeup, almost invisible, which highlights the radiant beauty of Jade, like in a dream.

REPRESENTATION in the 50s most of the world, and the United States in particular, a period of flourishing economic: the boom of the recovery after the second world war pervades all sectors. In music we say new rhythms, Rock'n'Roll was born that turns out to be not just a musical phenomenon, but also of manners: thousands of teenagers imitate the look and attitudes emerging rock stars. The TV sees the advent of color (USA, 1954) adjustment that will also shoot in film, creating a definitive break with the black and white of the past.

The make-up sees succession various styles and interpretations, born pin-up style that remains popular to this day, but also the delicate trick to Doris Day as opposed to the more sensual and languid Jayne Mansfield or Marilyn Monroe. The latter is the one actress who always populated the collective imagination, in her charming style and sensual, as a classic icon of recent years and, for this reason, is chosen as an example of makeup to recreate the look of the 50s.

The trick there.. and it shows! E’ precisely with the beginning of the year 50 fact that the trick starts to become a tool for corrective accessory charm. The woman is sensual, charmer, seductive, and how many more weapons has to exercise its charm, it uses many.

The color television, now within reach of many, helps make the image more vivid, spreads almost instantaneously new fashions and new looks from the spectators, where the shades of makeup will move naturally towards the red hot pink lips and cheeks of intense.

The false eyelashes, wigs and toupees are new tools of seduction available to all women, especially in the U.S. if it sees an increasing use starting from this period.

(Make up anni ’50)

The realization of the make up 50s

As always, the base is made with funds based fat long-lasting, typical of the trick photography and film. Using a pinkish hue of the same shade of skin, I choose a color a few shades lighter for the area around the eyes and central part of the face, thus realizing immediately highlights and corrections (chiaroscuro). Hydrated and powdered her and beginning to lay the colors.

Drawing the eyebrows hair by hair, trying to give a shape that enhances the eyes, and at the same time remember the gull-wing design, just typical of the 50s. This design is characterized by an initial thickness rather high, which goes to taper in an almost uniform until the end of the eyebrows. The stretch is linear up to the point of maximum height, which makes an angle very noticeable, and linear descendant of the eye to the tail.

Marco then the eyeliner with a black drawing 'pagoda’ removal on the eyelid, Drawing the thin part and reaches the maximum thickness of approximately 1/3 and then go inside and stretch a few millimeters thinner than the tail of the eye.
The shading on the eyes is very important: The eyelid crease is marked with a dark color, gradient and a very light color further up the point of maximum height of the eyebrows.

Finally, drawing the full lips and round, a beautiful deep red color. A newly designed with a black pencil between his nose and guacia is the finishing touch for this look.

The Second World War (1939-1945), protagonist of the first five years of this decade, only moderately affected the film industry in Hollywood, who saw in these years the emergence of big players (come Cary Grant, James Stewart, Gary Cooper, Henry Fonda , Humphrey Bogart e Ingrid Bergman) and the creation of memorable film productions (Casablanca, Kane).

Despite the current technology already ventilasse the possibility to realize color film (Techincolor), most of the films were still in black and white, because of technical difficulties and high costs of production (3:1 compared to white and black). It has in fact, that 1947 the production of color films represented only 12% of the total.

For this reason, the make-up was not particularly upset over prior to the '30s, but it represented a natural evolution.

(Rita Hayworth, 1946)

(Katharine Hepburn,1940)

The trick is natural, Portable, eyebrows have returned to their proper volume, frame the eye in a rounded design 'wing swallow'. Born the use of false eyelashes make-up of the great Hollywood actresses: long hair mink were glued to the end of the eyelid creating a completely natural and invisible to the eye of the beholder.

In these years is the mouth to dominate the scene: The design on the upper lip is rounded, As in the '30s, but until you zoom out often from his natural design (Judy Garland's pensi a, Veronica Lake, Katharine Hepburn o Rita Hayworth) while the lower lip will copy the volume, but assumes a drawing squared, wide and low to near the edge of the mouth.

Red (or auburn) is the dominant color in the colors of the hair of the hottest actresses in recent years.. because it was noticed that these shades were better defined and more readable by the film in shades of black and white.

The realization of the make up 40s

Starting from the base, I have stretched a fund fat pink tint and color not too distant dall'incarnato Model, on which I subsequently realized the light and shade, light on the nose, a little’ higher for the definition of the outline of the face and upper eyelid.

On the upper eyelid also have better defined the lash line with black pencil, then vanished in the direction of the eyebrow, thus creating a shadow which reaches up to approximately half the height of the eyelid.

On the lower eyelid I then spread a very light eye shadow color brown, Slightly faded to white below the height of the eyebrows.

The eyebrows were combed and filled with a light watercolor eyeliner color light brown (suitable for blonde hair)

Even cheekbones were dug by chiaroscuro, and cheeks rosy colors in a gradient.

I did not zoom operations on the mouth because it was already visible on the face, but I limited myself to redraw the boundary and inner edges blend it in with a darker color to give depth.

Hair characteristics:

For the realization of the base, I follow the canonical rules of cinematic trick: contouring (shading) e highlight (lights) specifically for a make-up that is there but not seen, that delivers maximum value for the bride's face hiding, if present, imperfections.

The subsequent attachment of makeup with a powder is transparent fontamentale importance in bridal makeup: In fact, not only obscures the skin giving a smooth and highly polished (matte) but allows the base to last throughout the day, maintaining the trick almost unchanged despite perspiration, contact and friction (kiss the guests after the ceremony of marriage), and possible tears.

Only at this point one can choose (we had done before him in makeup tests) if you delight in the harmony of colors offered by traditional wedding makeup make-up or throw in a stronger.

This type of choice is dictated by several factors, primarily of course the taste of the customer, followed by shades of complexion, hair and eyes, Also taking into consideration factors such as color and less obvious type of the dress and hairstyle, as well as the time of the ceremony.

While it is true that the harmony of color lies in the right balance of warm and cold of those, it should be noted that the same trick made for a bride dressed in cream will be much less noticeable on a white dress, as well as the makeup for a ceremony to be held in the morning will be interpreted lighter than an afternoon ceremony for a wedding makeup.

In this day where the bride will be featured both live and in photos, every detail is important, should therefore not overlook any detail, starting from the eyebrows. A fill light with a pencil a few shades more clear (unless your hair is not jet black) much help to frame the eye, as well as the definition of eyelid removal will make it look fuller and more defined.

Water proof mascara and lipstick to complete the long-lasting make-up.
