Hair and Make-up
This is beautiful Ana, a friend and long time client. She was going to her cousin's wedding today and needed me to do her hair and make-up. I started with her hair wet. I put a dime size amount of anti-frizz, then sectioned it out and blew it out with a round brush. Once it was all straightened out I curled it away from her face with a curling iron. For her make-up I wanted to brighten her up. I did this by dabbing a tiny bit of orange lipstick under her eyes, yes lipstick. The orange canceled the purple, then I went over it with a light concealer. I blended everything with a matching foundation and set it with powder. Ana needed a bit of contouring to bring out her cheekbones, so I used a highlighter around her outer eye bone and top of cheekbone. Then we used a darker tone and a bronzer under the cheekbone, top of nose and hair line. Then blended, blended, and blushed all the way to the hair line. This creates more structure to the face. Remember when you are trying to hide or shrink something, go darker. When you are trying to enhance something, go lighter. We did some half lashes to bring the outer corner of her eyes up and put a lighter shadow towards the inside of the lids. These tips keep her eyes light, bright and uplifted. A little hairspray and a dab of lipgloss and she was ready to go!
