Picture
This: A beach wedding by WWE & CO a team of local wedding and destination planners. in the beautiful coastline of
Benaulim in Goa. With the bright blue Arabian sea in the background, the
swaying coconut palms and lush green fields all around. A beautiful bride
in her stunning white gown is all smiles on the most amazing day of her life.
Now she is by the coast, the weather; hot and humid making her sweat, with the
sun burning down. Her makeup is giving way and sliding off due to the oil and
sweat!
When the
right products are not used, makeup can turn on a oily mess with the heat that
turns the skins greasy. So what is the solution? The right choice of products,
application techniques and avoiding oily applications as for as possible
is most recommended. Various products have oil free versions that you can
choose from. Keep the shine on your face to a minimum as these add to
light and reflect on your face when photographed which would appear to look
oily. Face powder when used for a base coat can take over, so keep in
mind to use very little of it. I have got a few other tips for you as well, I
used these methods and products while I took up a project for a
wedding planning team while on holiday last December and have had good success
with it.
At the
beginning
Ensure
that the skin is clean by washing it off gently with clay cleanser to gently
remove all the oils and grime from it using Dermalogica, do not leaving
it too dry. The next step would be adding a lotion as a moisturizer if
you are going to use foundation. Keeping in mind to not use any creams as
they have more oil content than water unlike lotions. Using a UVA sunscreen
lotion that has no Titanium dioxide or Zinc oxide which are generally very
thick and tends to get greasy.
Applying
the Foundation
Less
coverage is required if you have young and vibrant skin as you will require to
for a tinted moisturizer. Lauran Mercier is product that is made for such
climates as it is oil free with strong sun protection. Concealers can be
used where needed to cover up the odd blemishes using oil-blotting papers to
blot up the access.
Working
with the Eyes
Get
started with the eyes with Colour Me Beautiful as a base which will help the
makeup stay in stay-on without any creasing. Use a brush to blend with
matt powder shadows without any creams. To define the shape of the eyebrows use
a neutral color first then use a light color under the arch. Define the
eyes with a eye pencil and then gently use a flat brush to blend the line with
more power eye shadow.
Use a Blusher
along with a Bronzer
Here
again use powdered versions of bronzers where the sun will hit you the most, in
areas such as the forehead, on the cheekbones, around the nose and chin. Dab a
blush of your choice on the cheeks as well.
Get
started with the Lips
For the
lips keeps it basic with a lip gloss of your choice, there are so many to
choose from so feel free to pick one that you like. If you would like to add
another element to it, use a lip pencil to define the outlines after-which you
can add the color in. You can take this a step further by adding another coat
after you blot the lipstick with an oil blotting paper.
Finishing
up
To finish
up use a fine spray of water across the face to help set it all up. Ensure that
you try all the products that you plan to use in advance in your makeup
rehearsals.
