Before you walk into our intimate boudoir in San Diego, let’s talk about your ideas for hair, makeup, and overall look. So, if you’re all about channeling spring’s playful spirit into your shoot, stick around. We’ve got some fresh, fun, and fabulous tips to make your boudoir experience a blooming success!
How to do hair and makeup for a boudoir shoot?
As you ponder over the perfect props for your photoshoot and rehearse your favorite boudoir poses, remember: your hair and makeup are just as important. Spring, the time for renewal, is a splendid source of inspiration!
While a team of professionals in the studio will ensure your boudoir experience is comfortable and as enjoyable as possible, it’s good to have a clear vision of what you want to express through your style. Does that rejuvenating energy of spring resonate with you? Do you wish to include it in your shoot somehow? You’re in the right place! Let’s explore how to do that:
1. Embrace natural radiance
Nothing wrong with heavy makeup if that’s your jam, but here’s the thing: you don’t need layers to look stunning. Spring is all about nature, so why not flaunt your natural allure? Think light base and subtle highlighter to match the season’s fast light. Got freckles or that natural flush? Let them shine! No need to cover up, let’s just enhance the masterpiece that is your face!
2. Lively eye & lip makeup
For your eyes and lips, think spring: light, fresh, and oh-so-lively! This season’s theme is all about that subtle, playful charm. For eyes, steer clear of the dramatic gradients and dive into a palette of soft nudes and pastels. Let your gaze captivate with colors that whisper rather than shout! And your lips? If spring were a lip look, it would definitely be glossy! Whether you’re going for a soft tint or a hue that’s as bold as a peony, remember, it’s all about the sheen and shine.
3. Hair that flows like a spring breeze
Now, let’s talk about how to style your hair. Whether you’re all about letting those locks flow in loose, carefree waves or prefer a sleek style that’s smooth and chic, let your hair match the ease and freshness of spring. Embrace your natural texture or throw in a playful braid for a hint of whimsy. And if you’re feeling extra, why not adorn your hair with a floral accessory?
4. Add a pop of color
You can – and absolutely should – have a bit of fun with color for a spring-inspired look! If anything, now’s the time to embrace those playful hues! Whether it’s colorful eyeliner or a touch of coral on the cheeks, these vibrant accents add a playful twist and bring the season’s lively vibe to your look. Don’t hesitate to experiment with ideas to find the one that compliments you best and matches the joy of spring!
