My secrets to making your make up last long on a photoshoot (well not really secrets)


 The last thing I want to worry about during a photoshoot is my makeup. I want it to look flawless, stay put and not look oily. So by trial and error I think I found my solution. Sometimes that is just what it takes, you have to test out different products to find what works for you. As everyone is different. 

My essentials consist of : 

A primer, I use Spackle tinted under make-up primer by Laura Geller

Foundation- Estee Lauder Double Wear Stay in Place- shade Pebble

Concealer- Mabelline Instant Age Rewind 




Eyeshadow Primer- By Urban Decay, Eyeshadow Primer Potion

To help keep all of this in place I use either a translucent powder or loose powder, sparingly

I like Elf Mineral Booster or Maybelline Shine Free Loose Powder in medium



As for a bronzer I use Wet N Wild the shade is called Bikini Contest its more of a matte finish

For a sheer finish, highlighter and bronzer I use Milani Baked bronzer in glow

Blush- because I never go without it, I use Milani's Luminoso Bake Powder Blush

Eye shadow and eyebrow filler- The Naked Palette 2 is perfect its by Urban Decay



For big Lashes I use NYC Big and Bold Curl- I love this stuff! 

Lip Liner NYX- Ever

Lipstick- Maybelline -Warm me UP

Gloss- Revlon Hot Pink Rose

Hair spray- Big Sexy Hair-this holds great




Fragrance- Faith Hill Soul to Soul- I know this is not makeup but I get so many compliments

on it, it smells elegant, warm and fresh. 

So here is a shot of everything straight from my make up bag! 



Application is important, I use a Sigma stippling brush for my foundation. 

Sigma F 180

This gives me an even application and helps my make up last. 



After foundation its important to set it with the translucent powder. 

You can even apply an "all nighter spray" Found at Sephora or Mac when you are done 

applying everything. 

I hope this helps you in some way! 

XOXO!
