Fashion Makeup

Sunday, April 7, 2013

Ready to get creative?  I'm not sure if you're familiar with this kind of makeup procedure but this is usually use by MUA(Makeup Artist) who are into a Fantasy Makeup Fashion.

Bold to vibrant colors of makeup and by using  STENCILING TECHNIQUES 

AVANT GARDE makeup is like playing and exploring the fun fantasy world of fashion.




How crazy and insanely bold having those kind of look. And don't forget to add some faux lashes for a truly captivating eye.

How cool are some of these makeup looks styled by different MUA.


When doing an AVANT GARDE makeup you have to get an inspiration.  Open your imagination to get the design and concept you want to portray. Get ideas from any other sources like nature, movies, books, magazines or just your emotions for that period.

There are THREE STYLES of AVANT GARDE MAKEUP:

DRAMATIC - when you say dramatic all you need is to apply dark to smoky shadow over the eye lid.

COOL AND PLAYFUL - here you can choose any bright color eye shadow shades.

DARK OR GOTHIC INSPIRED - you start in the middle of the eyelid and going upward. Mostly they blend dark orange or red shadow into the lid and crease.

It's so fun to take a risk when it comes to makeup and be different from others.  But take note makeup should be used with the adult supervision or the EXPERT.

This happens particularly in previous years but I haven't posted anything about my experience though I post a little bit of it from my WordPress blog but need to transfer it here and add some information about STENCIL.

Stencil is a piece of paper, plastic, or metal that have letters, design, or graphics.  Used to produce the letters and design on the underlying surface by applying pigment through the cut-holes.


Here my friend Eva used paper with a Letter S design to stencil my eyebrow using traditional way of stenciling.  But before that she cover my eyebrow using a glue stick.



It was a fun experience for us because we're both amateurs in this kind of profession.  In this lesson that we have from FIDA all the styles and the programs we've encountered will be used as our stepping stones to improve more.

Same with my lips, she also use stencil to form a super pouty lips to look like the animated cartoon character BETTY BOOP.




This MAKE UP STENCILS is an ideal fit for photo shoots, runaway, and special events. Yet, this will give you time consuming but there are lots of stencil face paint design products that can be bought online or in the market.  A modern style of stenciling your face with the use of an AIRBRUSH.

If you prefer the traditional way of applying stencils you have to be very careful in doing it.  Stencil technique should be learned first with an expert.
