Backstage

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.

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 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..

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.
