Make up problems
Anybody with advice on best make up to use, as well as removing it from the skin please?
Didn't see any sticky on this subject.

Re: Make up problems
I have been using makeup on Hanna for 4 years now but before I started I asked the manufacturer what to use.
They advised only using powder type makeup. Progressing from ordinary blocks of powder makeup I tried mineral powder makeup.
That stuff is superb, very easy to apply from the jar with the use of some proper makeup brushes. You will need some decent brushes too. I've got one with a 45 degree cut tip and one flat ended one plus larger brush for blusher or dusting.
The mineral powder is the best but it's a little more expensive than the block type powder.
To remove it I use a pack of makeup removal wipes, like wet wipes, they remove it quickly and easily and are also good for creating sharp edges.
I have used lipstick but I only ever leave it on for the duration of a photo shoot and then remove it. Same with the blusher on her eyes for the Kimono shots which was also liquid type but powder is fine to leave.

Re: Make up problems
A lot is down to practice. It's unlikely that you will be successful on your first try but it does get a lot easier with practice and the right tools.kenwalters wrote:Thanks Arthur, looks like a real learning curve ahead. Shame we don't have a workshop or stickie on this subject.
If you are using those wipes though you can mess it up a few times and just wipe it away easily.
Have fun.
