Modern Series
Why the finishing effects are ideal for red carpet, fashion show and evening special occasion? The most important points to create contour look verified through my experience are "foundation make-up perfection, structure make-up perfection, small spots make-up perfection, cheek make-up perfection and the sense of whole face design". To put it simply, attractive eye shadow, cheek and lip colours plus proper make-up techniques focusing on the 3 areas do create outstanding looks, yet, couldn't lead towards contour look closer to perfection. What lead towards perfection are the 5 fundamentals.
1. Foundation Make-up Perfection:
Foundation cream is normally put as the 1st layer of make-up without any 2nd thoughts. Ladies seldom pay attention to the differences in various brands' foundations within the same shade category. When you take out shade 1 from Dior and shade 1 from Saint Lauren, you could see that the former is creating whitening and lightweight texture. Whereas the latter is slightly darker. Contour look is about setting a foundation base closer to your natural skin conditions and make it charming from Step 1. As everyone is unique, when you find no shades could perfectly suit yourself or the standard you expect couldn't be reached by any existing products, let's blend foundations together, yet, no more than 2, i.e., two shade 3 or two shade 5 and so on from 2 brands. Ultimately, putting 1 more layer upon foundation cream(s) by using Dior compact cushion is going to enhance perfection.
2. Structure Make-up Perfection:
To make your forehead, cheek and chin stand out even without being slightly compromised during application of foundation, NARS Laguna Bronzing Cream could be a easily manageable choice. Simply applying the cream to your face structural areas such as the areas between forehead and hairlines rather than the whole face could lead towards structure perfection.
3. Small Spots Make-up Perfection:
Regardless of your original skin conditions, concealer(s) must be applied if you expect a contour look. The Before and After contrast could be huge especially surrounding your eye area. Concealer could be applied everywhere surrounding none ideal small spots. Considering most ladies' fast paced work style in modern society, eye area means the common spots where concealer is put to avoid none ideal effects in finished make-up look. There is no right or wrong concealer. Using a concealer from skincare brands such as LAMER rather than make-up brands could also be fine.
4. Cheek Make-up Perfection:
Using only facial blush for cheek make-up becomes increasingly outdated. Powder- or None Powder- based facial blush could be used as the 1st layer plus face illuminator in both powder and liquid forms as 2 extra layers. The 3 layers are perfectly matched and blended altogether in terms of colour, texture and radiant effect. Another simple way to reach cheek perfection is to apply compact air brush from Charlotte Tilbury Contour Series together with other combined sets within cheek category. Strictly speaking, Charlotte Tilbury products are leading towards Hollywood standards. Whereas contour looks cover broader occasions.
5. The Sense of Whole Face Design
In the modern series shoot, eye shadow chosen is a rare green colour with gold foil and shiny texture. Cheek, chin and lip make-ups are also eye-catching. Eye brow and eyeliner make-up must not override the highlights. Therefore, eye brow and eyeliner make-ups sticking with minimalism principle are designed.
