What kind of makeup should I do for my Boudoir or Pinup Session?

No two women are the same, so we believe that you should have a choice of what type of makeup look you choose for your session!  Don’t worry we have you covered, even if you do not wear makeup on a daily basis.

Don’t let mountains of makeup options stop you from having the time of your life at your boudoir shoot. Whether you’re glam, enhanced natural vixen, or looking for that pinup style, a boudoir photoshoot is a perfect time to rock what makes you spectacularly you.  Or maybe you want to try out something completely new! Our in-house makeup artist will help you create whichever fun and flirty style you decide.

 

GLAM!

Bring on the contour! This look is all about awakening your inner vixen. For glam, think: lining, smudging and accentuating to bring out that smokey eye. Your lips are another great asset, so we’ll be lining and shining those beauties, as well. Lashes are a must for this look, but don’t be intimidated by the idea of wearing false ones. A little lash-inspiration is easy to come by with the help of our makeup artist.

Remember, you’ll want to choose one main focal point for your glam boudoir look, whether it’s eyes or lips. A good rule-of-thumb is to pair dark eyes with a nude or lighter lip, and a bright lip with a lighter or more neutral eye.  Don’t worry our expert makeup artists have it totally under control!

 

NATURAL BEAUTY!

If you’re more a natural beauty type of girl, you can still rep your style while wearing some great makeup. You’ll start off by moisturizing (the secret to all-around great makeup sessions), and then use a concealer to lighten up under your eyes.

For a natural glow, you can add a light powder foundation and a little cheek color if you’re feeling it. And for your eyes? Think a muted shadow over your eyelid, with a touch of mascara, or a more natural style of false eyelashes. Think about trying a matte natural or nude color tone for your lip!

 

PIN UP!

For the retro girl who has everything, a boudoir shoot is the perfect platform to show off her style. If you’re looking for more of a vintage vibe keep things classy with your makeup while emphasizing some glamorous points. The key to pinup boudoir style is not to overdo it!

For brows, which are the foundation of the pinup look, your stylist will keep them well shaped, and filled with a brow pencil just a shade or two darker than your natural haircolor. Your eyelids will stay neutral, emphasized with either a beige or taupe color variation. Ready to get that perfect cat-eye? None of us truly are, but with the help of our makeup artist you can keep the retro vibe alive. Top it off with a red lip, and you’re ready to roll!

 

No matter what type of look you want our expert in-house licensed stylists have it under control!
