How I do my makeup for before a shoot; the quick and natural edition. The tips and tricks I’ve picked up from makeup artists over the years for photo-ready skin.
Remember how we used to get dressed up and leave the house for work or meetings, or to dinner and a night with friends ? Yeah, me neither. And yet, my makeup routine does in fact, still exist; it’s just changed somewhat.
It’s now less about finding the right statement lippy for that party (for obvious reasons), or even trying out fun eye makeup to lift a casual pair of jeans and a tee. Or wanting to look your most flawless self for a job interview or a date, or just because who knows where the day will take you. Instead – hopefully just for the time being – we conduct so much our life via screens. Zooms, Facetimes, Skypes, WhatsApp calls, Instagram, Stories… you get the gist.
So with that in mind, I wanted to share my current lockdown makeup routine; basically, how I do my makeup for photos (and the odd video).
And because I love ya, if you need to re-up on your makeup, or just try something new, you can use the code JESSIE15 for 15% everything online at Code8.
