If you've decided to do your own makeup make sure you do a practice or trial run so that you are confident of the outcome. Under studio lighting features become a little washed so it is best to apply your make up a little bit heavier than how you want the end result to be.
On the day of your shoot prepare your skin for make-up application, by applying a primer to your skin, if you are prone to have oily skin a mattifying primer might suit your skin best as you don’t want to look oily under the lights. Otherwise use any primer to even skin tone and texture, and make your look last for longer. Then use a foundation that matches you skins tone and type. This is crucial, if your foundation doesn’t match your neck and décolletage area, your photos are not going to look good. Be sure to powder your foundation to set it for the shoot and to keep shine and oil at bay (unless, of course that is the look you are wanting to achieve).
Then apply a wash of colour or neutral tone to the eyelids. Create shape and depth by applying a stronger colour to the socket line. Make sure everything is blended well. Line the lash line on the top of the eye, you can use either pencil, gel or liquid liner, for a softer look, you can use a dark or black eyeshadow along the lash line with a fine brush. Line the lower lash line on the outer half with a pencil or with the eyeshadow and make sure the line is blended well. Apply your mascara to the top and bottom lash line, and apply you false lashes too if you have chosen to use them.
