20 women without makeup and after: photo and comment of the stylist

On Beauty Day, which is celebrated in the world on September 9, several brave girls from Volgograd agreed to an experiment from Woman’s Day – they decided to show their most personal and intimate photos, without embellishment and makeup, and also told about their secrets of beauty and charm. And we asked stylists and makeup masters to reveal the secrets of professional makeup, how to become more effective in one move.

Diana Dyukova, stylist of the Eva beauty and health center, comments:

– We did some festive makeup, but Maria wanted it to look natural, so we even out the skin tone a little to one shade using a flat brush and a water-based foundation with a matte effect. By the way, such a brush allows us to apply the product in an even and thin layer and is convenient for home use. With the help of blush, they emphasized youth, and with shadows they added depth to the eyes. They applied reflective powder as the girl had a photo session.

Diana Dyukova, stylist of the Eva beauty and health center, comments:

– Anastasia came to make-up in a dress in which she was going to go to the celebration – bright cornflower blue. Our task was to balance the image, to emphasize the dignity of the face. By adjusting the lifting zone, we made the face a little narrower, thus it began to seem that the girl had lost weight (and many clients always ask to make themselves a little thinner in the photo). We only emphasized beautiful eyes with eyeliner and shadows. Big eyebrows are in trend this season; this effect is achieved by drawing along the lower edge of the eyebrow and shading the pencil. To highlight the shape and visually enlarge the lips, a lip contour is applied, which we shade a little. Lipstick should be taken one, or better two tones lighter than a pencil.

Diana Dyukova, stylist of the Eva beauty and health center, comments:

– Olga had to take photographs for her passport that day, so we did a business make-up. By the way, today, more and more often girls, when they go to take official photos, resort to the services of a stylist, and rightly so: we look at the passport very often, and we are not always happy with the photo there. The task was to leave Olga natural, only to emphasize her dignity. With the help of tonal means, the skin tone was corrected, reflective powder and blush were applied, and the depth of the eyes was emphasized.

Comment of stylist Natalia Maslova, @makeup_maslova:

– Makeup for a spring photo shoot with flowers. Correctly chosen makeup for shooting will always make your look complete and effective! The tone of the face should be perfectly even in color and lasting, especially when shooting outdoors.

For a thematic photo shoot, you can use bright, rich colors that are combined with the image as a whole. Shadows with a matte finish look more impressive. Don’t give up on eyeliner, it will make your eyes more expressive. Eyelashes – the more the better. Therefore, I recommend using false or tufts of eyelashes. With a lip liner, you can adjust the shape of your lips. For Evelina, we focused on the eyes, so our lips are neutral in color.

Comment of stylist Natalia Maslova, @makeup_maslova:

– Evening makeup for a wedding. This makeup is characterized by bright and juicy tones. We focus on either the eyes or the lips. We have allocated to Elena her expressive eyes. These are satin shadows that emphasize the color of the eyes, black eyeliner, false eyelashes. Lips – natural matte shade.

Comment of stylist Natalia Maslova, @makeup_maslova:

– This is a makeup for a passport photo. Usually the photo in the documents is not the best. But you can get ready and do your makeup to look great. There are several rules for this kind of shooting:

– perfect face tone;

– you need to pay attention to the eyes, highlighting their natural shape and color with matte shadows. The eyebrows should be shaped and the color slightly enhanced;

– with a lip pencil, you can emphasize the shape of the lips and apply a lipstick shade close to your natural color.

Comment by Volgograd stylist Svetlana Dugina, @sveta_dugina:

– Morning is rarely perfect. And the reflection in the morning in the mirror looks at us without coquetry. Rather, asking for help. How to help? There is the most important rule to remember: first lighten the lifting area of ​​the face, and then darken the entire face behind this area with a darker color. To do this, you need two tones: in the cosmetic bag there is your “winter” tone, which is close to the skin color (we often use this in winter) and the “summer” tone, under a tan. Take advantage of this advice and you will always look great! And all ingenious is simple!

How to highlight the lifting area. see below

When you start to paint and “your hand trembles”, remember, you need to put a light tone just like the stylist’s – not wider, not further. Everything else should be darker in tone. The tones are mixed at the border of the lifting zone. If it doesn’t work, try using a lower tone. And don’t be afraid to experiment, any makeup is easy to wash off.

Comment by Volgograd stylist Svetlana Dugina, @sveta_dugina:

– After darkening the sides and lightening the central part, the girls’ faces become more prominent, light and toned, even “lose weight”! And what girl doesn’t want to be even slimmer ?! Take this opportunity to deceive the eyes of others, because this is a completely innocent lie.

Comment by Volgograd stylist Svetlana Dugina, @sveta_dugina:

– Here we have highlighted the lifting area and darkened the side lines with a dark tone! The task was to improve the quality of the skin – to make it velvety, remove pores and small vessels. To do this, we finalized the zones with powder: dark powder for a dark tone, light for a light one. The borders have smoothed out and the make-up has become softer, more natural. The face was rejuvenated and refreshed. On my lips I applied a lipstick fashionable this season with a matte effect (by the way, professional stylists use lipsticks with a long-lasting effect so that the color does not go away during the event). But I recommended applying gloss to the lips a minute before the photo session – it will be more effective in the photo.

Comment by Volgograd stylist Svetlana Dugina, @sveta_dugina:

– Another example of how the highlighting of the lifting zone refreshes the face! The girl is 35 years old, and she looks very good, but there are no limits to perfection: a competent make-up makes her just a gorgeous lady! For swarthy or tanned faces, such as Tatyana’s, you can only lighten the lifting zone and not make the side parts darker, just apply a foundation in the color of your skin. Now, after the summer, many women have moved into the category of dark-skinned women, so it is enough for them to lighten the center of the face!

Comment of stylist Natalia Filatova, @filatova_makeup:

– In makeup for Tanya, we chose natural shades and wanted to emphasize her freshness and youth. The main task for me was to remove dark circles under the eyes, to lighten the nasolabial folds, to narrow the nose. I chose a foundation with a yellowish undertone to remove the redness of the face. Made a bold face correction with a dark sculptor (cheekbones, sides of the nose, forehead and chin). With an arrow, they extended the eyes to the temples and, by darkening along the crease of the eyelids, simultaneously expanded them. I needed a thick yellowish-peach concealer for the under-eye area and a lighter one in the nasolabial fold. The blush on the most prominent parts of the cheeks and eyebrows is slightly wider than the existing shape. The client had a request not to do bright lip makeup, so we limited ourselves to a nude shade of gloss. This make-up is suitable for both daily wear and for a special occasion.

Comment of stylist Natalia Filatova, @filatova_makeup:

– We performed makeup for Olga before her important trip to another city. Clients often ask for makeup for 2 days, because it breaks all records in terms of durability. Our goal was to change the shape of the eyebrows, to even out the complexion. Having chosen the classic version of eye makeup, where the inner corner of the eye is lightened, and the outer one is darkened, we changed the shape of the eyes. We chose a permanent gel base for light shadows and a pencil in the crease of the eyelid, in the corner of the eye, on the movable eyelid. The geometry of the eyebrows should not have sharp dips and deflections; a special eyebrow gel of a light shade helped us to change it. Dense foundation removed age spots. Blush for freshness, sculptor and highlighter for relief, long-lasting gel lipstick – and Olya was ready!

Comment of stylist Natalia Filatova, @filatova_makeup:

– Anna came to me for a trial wedding makeup, and the main task was to enlarge her eyes and make eyelashes thicker, which thinned out after an unsuccessful extension. The best way to enlarge your eyes is with a smoky ice makeup scheme. Its feature is a smoothly shaded eye contour with an emphasis on the lash line, which makes the look deeper and more expressive. For greater effect, we lightened the mucous membrane of the lower eyelid and glued the eyelashes along the entire length. We designed the eyebrows according to all the rules of construction, brought the beginning of the eyebrow closer, which is easy to find by dividing the segment from the middle of the face to the inner corner of the eye in half. We made a slight face correction. Against the background of dark eyes, the lips were left neutral.

Stylist Olga Panchenko’s comment, @panchenko_makeup:

– Evening make-up was performed on the occasion of a festive evening. Be sure to make face corrections and remove redness, pay special attention to the area around the eyes.

The emphasis is on the upper part of the face – the eyes and eyebrows. The eyes are accentuated with shaded arrows, which is now popular, the inner corner of the eye is accentuated by seated shadows, which also makes the look more accentuated, and the lips in a soft calm tone in order to balance the makeup.

Olga Panchenko, 24 years old, stylist

Stylist Olga Panchenko’s comment, @panchenko_makeup:

– Light make-up, here the face was corrected and the redness and the area around the eyes were worked out. Light makeup was done for a photo shoot in nature, where naturalness was needed, so the makeup was done with the lightest textures and shades possible. Since the color type is summer, and there is always a lack of contrast in summer, the eyebrows were accentuated and the eyes were slightly emphasized. A little blush, a transparent balm to prevent glare on the camera – and you’re done!

Razumova Alina, 18 years old, student

Stylist Olga Panchenko’s comment, @panchenko_makeup:

– The makeup for Alina was also made taking into account all her wishes, with the exception of one – we chose the shade of lipstick based on her personality. Alina has a warm shade of hair, eyes and skin, so she replaced the classic red lipstick with a stunning bright peach shade. In addition, the lipstick is also very persistent, which is important for long-term events, and matte, which is now very relevant and fashionable!

Of course, they also worked well with the tone – we smoothed and masked the area around the eyes with the help of color correctors and a concealer with light reflection, a little highlighter – and voila!

Alina Rubleva, 18 years old, student

Stylist Olga Panchenko’s comment, @panchenko_makeup:

– Any makeup starts with the perfect face tone – it’s not a secret. Therefore, this one, like any other, I started with tone equalization. Since the skin is young, slight redness is present. They were helped to hide the color correctors and a good foundation that helps the skin breathe during the day and night, since the makeup is done for the prom, and still has enough overlapping power. A little bit of sheer loose powder to set and a highlighter to give your face a healthy glow and zest.

In each make-up, it is important to take into account the individuality and wishes of the client. Alina’s preferences are reduced to the classics, and the image at the prom was appropriate and at the same time very stylish. That is why the classics of the genre are arrows, but the shade of lipstick is very fashionable, the color of Marsala, which was also combined with her dress color, plus a slight face correction – and the makeup is ready!

Olga Trifonova, 24 years old, civil servant

Stylist Olga Panchenko’s comment, @panchenko_makeup:

– The make-up was performed for the most significant event in the girl’s life – the wedding, respectively, he had to emphasize all the dignity of the bride and reflect her vision of herself that day, which I embodied. The main thing was to make the image gentle, so the makeup was done in golden-pastel colors. For blue eyes, shades of a golden hue are amazing – we took advantage of this. I focused on the eyes, raising the outer corners of the eyes and adding light arrows, but at the same time everything looks very organic and not flashy, emphasizing the femininity that the bride needs. The lipstick is moisturizing, with a slight radiance of a cold tone, like blush – it refreshes the face. This is important for brides, as the night before the wedding is usually sleepless. Easy face correction, it was imperative to work out the area around the eyes very carefully, since the eyes are accented, and this also draws attention to the imperfections around the eyes – therefore, they should not be!
