3. Q&A

4.  You will now find yourself dealing with light and dark, and not colour when working on your clients face.  So how do you make sure that your make up doesn’t show up too dark, if at all in your pictures?

5.  Do not pack on too much foundation.  Black and white film literally will make your skin look good!  Make sure all red tones in the skin are covered. Red can show up as grey in a black and white picture, making your skin look blotchy.  Use a yellow concealer to hide the redness.

6.  Any make up with a blue, red or purple shade or under tone will always look darker in a picture.  If your going for a dramatic look try burgandy lip stick for a dark lip.  Black eye shadow will not show up black, it will come out dark grey in a picture. You will really have to put a lot on for it to show up black.

7.  Use a colours with a warm shade or under tone.  Yellow or orange under tones will show up lighter than you think in black and white pictures. So apply it with a heavier hand.

8.  Play up the lips and the eye liner.  Stay light on the blush.  Use 5 colours of eye shadow- Spend time on the crease of the eye  Focus on the bone structure- use highlights and shadow- focus on the cheek bone and jaw bone.  Use loose powder to play down shine especially on the T-zone.

9.  Take photos  We will review each photo at the end so be prepared to talk about the colours you have used and the effects of black and white photography.
