All about rocking a purple lip! Makeup - ShowMe MakeUp (Shonagh Scott) Model - Kate Errington Photography - Martin Higgs Retoucher - Stefka Pavlova Here is another lip look I created on a recent shoot, inspired by some other creative images I’ve seen recently! I used a purple face paint to cover the entire lip surface. Then I mixed in a touch of white face paint with glycerin, and on top of that I placed a small drop of purple eyeliner from LimeCrime, which i swirled around with a tiny brush. And then finally added in was an electric Teal eyeliner from No.7, which was the additional product to top it off!

Here is a behind the scenes photo of a makeup look I created on model Kate Errington! I used a variety of vibrant eyeshadow colours from brands such as Sugar Pill, Grimas, No.7 & MAC! It was all about contrasting colours but in a complimentary way. By that I mean using colours such as Yellow against Purple. They contrast due to their colour differences, but are complimentary on the colour wheel. By using colours that are so different, you can create some real eye-catching results, and that’s why I chose to use an electric Blue liquid liner across the eyelid. This liner is by No.7, I do love it but it does stain the skin, so be warned!

Here is another image from a recent Beauty Shoot. When creating photos for a site where people will buy the images, your work needs to stand out, but still be relevant at the same time. For instance with this image we are aiming it at cosmetic companies. It’s based on contouring and creating the perfect face shape. Oval is the ‘ideal’ face shape, all hairstyles suit an oval face. And if you have a shape that is anything but oval, then contouring can help you to create the illusion of an oval shape. I decided to think outside of the box when creating this image. Instead of swiping the brown & cream on like we see in most cosmetic contouring images, I decided to use a cross-hatch method, which is also a technique we are seeing used backstage by MUAs on catwalk shows. This is a subtle but effective use of the technique and I think it’s worked really well as a stock beauty image.

Juicy Lips! I wanted to create some plump over the top lips but without them looking like the model has had fillers. One key factor when emphasising the lips with Lipliner is make sure the corners meet. For this particular look, I found it worked best by drawing the top line above the natural lip line, and making this the furthest point at the corners (by a millimetre). Then drawing the bottom lip line in a very slight curve at the corners, to tuck in nicely underneath. If you were to draw the bottom lip line outwards to be the furthest point, it would make your model appear like she was falsely smiling - a bit too clown like. I chose to white out the face, to make the lips the focal point. *MakeUp - Me (Shonagh Scott aka ShowMe MakeUp) *Photography - Martin Higgs *Model - Kate Errington

Another behind the scenes makeup image - Masquerade makeup! This look took me around 1.5hrs to complete. I hadn’t practiced this look before, I just decided to freehand it on a whim. I was really pleased with the result. I used cheap brand makeup for this look so it’s definitely a “Do it at home” one you can recreate! Look at my past blog posts for a step-by-step guide on how to get this look!
