Final makeup

For my final makeup look I tried to keep the look very natural. I wanted to enhance only the eyes. My model Ioana, wore blue contacts which made here eyes already stand out. I tried to enhance this by creating a golden metallic eye look. I also highlighted her inner eye with an iridescent white glittery shade which I also used to highlight the bridge of her nose and cheek bones which unfortunately does not show up in my photographs.  

Paco Peregin

In further research into the makeup I wanted to do for my fashion shoot I came across the work of the photographer Pace Pergein.

I really liked his use of colour and how the skin of all the models looked so flawless. I wanted my makeup to enhance the natural beauty of my model as well as being a bit extreme. When I did my models makeup I really applied a lot of highlight but this is very toned down in the actual photographs due to the day being very overcast my makeup was not captured as well as I would have liked.

Makeup inspiration

I wanted the makeup to be kept natural and simple for my look as to not to detract from the dress as I felt that should not be out shined . I wanted a bronzed golden look that was very youthful and enhanced the models features. I also knew I wanted to have golden eyeshadow as to have the gold of the dress reflected in the makeup. I was torn between either having nude shimmery lips or a bold red lip.
These are the images that I` drew my main inspiration from.
