Indian Bridal Makeup by Anaiyah Sunshine - Kiss of Sultana Concept

I love Indian Bridal makeup since my mother's side of the family have roots from India this was a great tribute to my family's background. What I love about Indian Bridal makeup is the theme of being so exotic. The eyes are the keys to the soul and in this style of makeup it's just captivating.

I chose i really close friend of mine to be my Indian bride and since she is natively from India I knew she would make a wonderful muse. The photographer I used was Peter Alcazar. You can find his work here at www.peteralcazar.4ormat.com.

Tips of Indian makeup :
1.  Learn your color wheel see what colors that would really compliment each other. Highlight areas and be very steady with your blending of the brush. Also know about contrasts if the eyes are the main focus then tone the lip color and vice.versa.
2. Be daring ! If you feel a aqua blue shadow would compliment canary yellow then go for it. Its all a fantasy it never hurts to try.


Eventually I shared it on Iman Cosmetics on twitter and I love using their makeup eventually Iman Cosmetics returned my online post with an amazing response .

(Model Sairy Salazar shown above)

Instead of picking the hottest makeup looks on the net I wanted to showcase my own work on the blog today. This was a recent shoot I did last weekend with fashion photographer Peter Alcazar. I wanted to achieve a clean yet humbling look for this model. My first goal was to prime and conceal areas for smooth foundation application. Once I established that after foundation and powder application her eyebrows was my next step.

Here's some tips :
Brows
If your client / model has dark brows use your concealer .
* Establish your brow line once you see the pattern of the brow line then you will take your eye brow pencil and draw the top and bottom of the brow. Next, you will use your brow brush to fill in the color and apply the color pencil if needed.
* The next step is to use your concealer above the top portion of the eye brow and under the low portion of the brow . The concealer will help you erase any stray hairs and you can form the brow perfectly . Let your concealer be your makeup white out or eraser. It cleans up any mistake or line or blemish.

Contouring

Highlight the focal points of your models face. If you want her face to slim down think as if you were chiseling a statue. The way you apply your blush is the way the shadows will appear on the face. If you wish for the shadows to slim the face thats how you wish to apply blush. The same goes for the nose as well. If you wish for the subject to have a slimmer longer nose you will apply shadow like a brown or nuetral tone on the side ridges of the nose which will create a shadow and once the shadow is applied it should slim the nose.

Lips

My favorite part on the face. If you wish to give your subject a really nice look just like I have explained in contouring it's the same for the lips. Think of shadows and  three dimensional design. Shadows when applied correctly can improve the makeup. What I did for Sairy was that I used a brown lip pencil for her lips in order to get a fuller appearance then applied a neutral lip color and lastly applied a lip plumper gloss. The peppermint in the gloss actually makes the lip plump a bit more than usual.
