Double Take


One of the things that I really love about being a makeup artist, is being able to create beauty on top of beauty. Sometimes, I have photo shoot that I am asked to do more than one look, on the same model(s). It's not very realistic to think that you will have the time to remove everything that was done for the first look just to recreate something different. So what do you do you may ask...you build on top of it.

It is obviously very easy to build onto a nat
ural or neutral look but I love when I can truly show my skill by building on top of color. Taking one look and creating something completely different. That is a challenge that I am always up for.

The main thing that I try no to do too heavily is blush. Because this is directly on the face, when I am doing a double look I don't put the first blush on too strong. Typically I like t
o change everything from the eyeshadow to the lips. Make something that you would never know that something else is under it.
