For day 1 please arrive in an outfit you'd like styling advice on, preferably day-to-day wear expressing your personality. Also bring high-heeled shoes for the catwalk (unless a health condition prevents this). Minimal to no makeup is recommended on arrival to maximize the benefits of your makeup session.
What to bring:
- Your own makeup kit and any outfits you want to be styled in or for the photoshoot.
- A makeup mirror (particularly important for those attending in London).
- A strapless bra and nude underwear.
- To ensure a perfect fit for potential outfit selections, it will be beneficial to be prepared with a clean bikini line.
In your makeup kit:
- Face wipes & cotton buds
- Face creams/moisturiser
- Foundation
- Concealer
- Mascara
- Eyeshadows
- Eyebrow pencil/shadow/gel
- Blusher / bronzer
- Highlighter
- Makeup brushes / sponges
Further advice:
- 3 outfits of your choice that you’d like help to restyle or shoot in (one casual outfit, an outfit you feel sexy in and one date night or dressy outfit).
- An item/ outfit in your wardrobe that you have never worn before.
- Different pairs of footwear in varying colours.
- Accessories (Shoes, Bags, Belts, Jewellery)
Before the masterclass, it would be helpful to try the following techniques:
1. Skin preparation: Ensure you cleanse and tone your skin before applying moisturiser/serum both in the morning and at night.
2. Applying foundation: Try using your hands or a flat brush.
3. Experiment with eyeshadows: Discover which colours suit your eyes/skin tones and try blending two colours together.
4. Eyeliner application: Don't worry about making a mistake, a cotton bud can clean and perfect the lines.
Let's show the world that "Curves are Beautiful!"
