I wasn't too sure where to put this, but I remember everything I used on the girls so I thought I might as well just put it here. Feel free to move if necessary!

I managed to arrange a photoshoot for my makeup portfolio with a friend of mine who's currently taking photography. He got two of his friends to be my models, Kaylee and Robin. I was kind of pressed for time, as I only had one hour to do both of their faces and get the pictures done, so I didn't really do full faces. A touch of foundation and powder where needed, but that was about it. They just left the mascara and eyeliner they had on previously on their face, because there wasn't really any time to wash it off and then do their entire face over again.
BUT, these are the pictures! They turned out pretty great.

I edited them myself. I was going to do the whole airbrushed thing, but I thought natural skin looked MUCH better than just smooth, plastic looking skin :/ so I just edited out any blemishes they had and adjusted the coloring.

Look #1 - Bronze!
So for Kaylee, I wanted to give her more of a glowy, day time kind of look. She strikes me as the kind of girl that would look great in neutrals, so that's what I put her in!
I used:
FACE
Covergirl Smoothers Foundation in select spots
Covergirl pressed powder all over face
Elizabeth Arden Bronzer in golden for the sunkissed look
CHEEKS
MAC blush in mocha
Smashbox softlights in shimmer
EYES
MAC Amber lights
MAC Shroom
MAC Bronze
MAC Espresso
MAC Carbon
LIPS
Nothing

Look #2 - Drama
I always heard Robin talking about how she LOVES red lips, so I thought I would put her in something she really likes. I also thought she would be able to pull off a fairly dramatic look, and I was right

I used:
FACE
Maybeline powder foundation in t-zone
CHEEKS
Rimmel blush in apricot
Physician's Formula Shimmer Brick in Vegas Strip
EYES
MAC Cyber (as base)
NYC's Wait Till Dark
FACES e/s in silver
MAC Carbon
Bonne Bell Eyeliner in Brown for eyebrows
LIPS
Some random red lip liner
MAC Dubonnet L/s

Probably 8 x 11 inch for my portfolio. I also have a couple more on the way from another friend of mine who took pictures of me the other day haha
OH, and! I have great news! I got an interview at Shoppers Drugmart in cosmetics! I'm going to have my portfolio put together by then so I can show the interviewer! I'm so excited.

Thanks for looking!

Goregous! Good job! I like how you used white eyeliner in the second pick and the model did a good job of posing! It's a great adrenalin rush though isn't it? When you are pressured for time and have to get it done for a photoshoot!

I think both the looks seem to suit your models, but I especially love the second look. I'm going to have to get Dubonnet!
