Applying Makeup for Glamour Photography

Since glamour modeling is focused heavily upon the sexuality of the model, it is vital for the makeup to emphasize hyper-feminine features while downplaying those considered to be less attractive. This is why heavily applied cosmetics are commonly found in this industry. Achieving the natural look actually takes a huge amount of effort when it comes to preparing this genre of model.

Some consider the makeup of glamour models to be similar to that of what one would wear for an evening out. While this is true in some instances, as a general rule the amount of cosmetics used in glamour modeling should not be attempted in daily life.

Studio lighting takes away a fair amount of makeup, so a thick foundation and excessive powder is usually applied. It is vital the artist realizes the importance of matching the facial foundationto that on the chin and neckline. Having your skin changing color in the final shots is less than ideal! Some makeup artists even go so far as to apply the base coat on the neck and shoulders to achieve consistency. While this is not usually necessary, caking on the cosmetics is in order to ensure an airbrushed and flawless look that will be appealing to the model's audience.

odelling Jobs: The Reality

Modelling Jobs: The Reality Modelling is incredibly hard work. If you think you turn up, have your hair and make-up done and then leave after an hour’s worth of shooting, you’re wrong. From the minute a model signs to an agency and starts attending castings right through to the time that they finish on set, a mass of energy, commitment and enthusiasm is required. Prepare to travel a lot and work weird and wonderful hours that are nothing like the standard 9-5, starting in the early hours of the morning and working until very late at night. That said, if you love a fast paced life that’s full of exciting twists and turns, you would thrive as a professional working model. Myths vs The Truth Myth: Modelling is a quick fix cash earner. Truth: As much as we’d love to agree with this statement, sadly it’s a myth.

Adding to this burden are unscrupulous agents, scouts and managers who earn their living by cashing in on the dreams of aspiring models. Even when represented by legitimate agents or managers, it is often difficult for inexperienced models to support themselves on modeling alone.
