Pros & Cons of Airbrush Makeup

Airbrush makeup is a unique modernized way of applying face makeup for special occasions. It is often used by makeup artists when a client expects to be in front of various cameras and lights, such as in theatre, film and weddings. Follow along below as we discuss the major pros and cons of airbrush makeup and to find out if it’s right for you.

What is Airbrush Makeup?

Airbrush makeup refers to a makeup application technique that doesn’t use brushes or sponges, but a specialized spraying device. The sprayer evenly distributes liquid face products directly onto the face, resulting in a seamless, full coverage look.

The Pros

Long-lasting: The ingredients in airbrush makeup enables it to stick to the face really well, lasting all day and night even through sweat and tears. This also saves time throughout the day you may otherwise spend touching up traditional makeup.

Lightweight: Airbrush sprayers provide one thin layer of makeup with each sweep. Due to its unique application, clients can often benefit from feeling nearly makeup free all while using much less makeup overall.

Photographs Well: The reason airbrush makeup is so often used in theater, film and for weddings is because it photographs so incredibly well. It can provide a flawless finish from every angle, a task brushes and sponges are not yet able to overcome.

The Cons

Not Ideal for Dry or Acne Prone Skin: Unfortunately airbrush makeup can eventually leave dry and acne prone skin types looking or feeling flaky after a while. Fortunately, this can be overcome with adequate skin preparation and help from the right makeup artist.

Hard to Re-blend: If for some reason your makeup streaks or becomes smudged, achieving that initial porcelain finish again can be much harder. However, if it’s applied properly and dries completely, this shouldn’t be an issue.

What’s Next?

With the right makeup artist on your side airbrush makeup can become your new best friend, just be sure to schedule a trial before your event.

Different Types of Make-Up Primers

When it comes to our beauty and make-up routine, a flawless look is what we all want to achieve. In the beauty industry, there are so many different products and techniques to achieve these type of results, but primer is one of the products that is a must-have! Think of it as the base coat to achieving a smooth complexion and a long-lasting finish. Read along to learn about the different types of primer best for different skin types.

Mattifying Primer- Oily Skin

Mattifying primers are best for someone with oily skin. This type of primer minimizes the appearance of pores while helping reduce shine throughout the day and extending the wear of makeup. A good primer will give you an oil-free, matte finish that is light and hydrating without clogging your pores.

Tinted Primer

A tinted primer is great for subtly evening out skin tone and neutralizing discoloration. This works best on normal skin with small pores. It differs from a mattifying primer due to its dewy finish. If you like your face to have that extra glow, try a tinted primer with shimmer for that extra glow!

Colour-Correcting Primer

Coulour-correcting primers come in different hues to help with different skin imperfections. From the reduction of redness to minimizing pores and brightening your skin, these primers are life savers! If you your skin is a bit dull, go for a pink primer, which give your skin a much brighter finish. Primers with green hues help reduce redness along with blemishes.

Now that you’ve learned a little more about the wonderful powers of make-up primers you can go shop for one that fits your skin type! A flawless finish along with an extended makeup wear are only a few benefits of this great application. Here at Beauty Studio, we make sure to provide you with the best make-up products to deliver a gorgeous look each time. Visit our website to learn more beauty tips!

How to Winter-Proof Your Skin

Winter has a reputation for beautiful snowy vistas and savory comfort food. The harsh weather, however, can be a huge detriment to your skin. The following are a handful of tips to help keep your skin and makeup looking great even when winter wreaks havoc on it.

Prevent the Burn

Sometimes it gets so cold it burns. To prevent a bad case of windburn, wear a scarf or hood that covers your neck and nose. Before you go outside, don’t forget to apply an extra-moisturizing lotion or salve to protect any skin that will be exposed to the chill.

Winter Lips

If the cold weather leaves your lips cracked and flaky, try using a lip balm that contains sunblock. You can also use a moisturizing lipstick. However, you should try to avoid matte lipstick because they tend to dry out the skin.

Snow Reflects Sun

If it’s daytime and you’re outside, you should be wearing sunscreen. UV rays from the sun are always a threat to your skin, and the sun-reflecting properties of the snow make it much worse. Whether you’re taking the dog for a walk or going skiing, get in the habit of wearing sunscreen with at least SPF 30 during the winter.

Red Face

If you’ve spent the day outside in inclement weather, chances are your skin looks red and inflamed by the end of the day. To mitigate this, try using a green-tinted moisturizer to hide the redness. If the discoloration is confined to small spots on your face, a concealer will work wonders. If any spots are painful to the touch, simply apply some hydrocortisone cream for instant relief.

Fight the Smudge

High winds, sleet, and snow can cause smudges and smears in our makeup. To prevent a complete meltdown, use waterproof mascara and apply shadow and eyeliner to the upper lids only so the color doesn’t migrate.

Consider Your Cleanse

Your face may feel taut and dry after getting ravaged by the cold weather. To combat this, try using a creamy cleanser with hydrating properties. If dryness persists, get ahold of a humidifier and make your air wetter.

Conclusion

The winter is full of charming traditions and great food. Winter weather, whether you like it or not, can be damaging to your skin and makeup. If you’re suffering from dryness, cracked-lips, or smudged makeup, try the above tips to help. For further questions on all things makeup related, call the professionals at Beauty Studio Inc.

Trendy Fall Makeup Looks

As the leaves turn different colors and the weather cools down, it’s clear that fall is just around the corner. You may be wondering: how can I change up my makeup routine to reflect the autumn season? In this blog post, we’re going to discuss a few different ways you can incorporate dark and smoky pigments into your makeup look!

Burgundy/Purples

Burgundy shadows and lipsticks pair well with light to medium skin tones.  The contrast of dark purples against your skin helps you to put together a dramatic look that catches attention anywhere you go. For eyeshadow application, we recommend blending together the colors at the crease first, and then buffing out the remaining shadow towards the outer eyelid. As for your lipstick, apply a dark colored lip liner and then fill in the remaining space with your favorite burgundy shade!

Deep Reds/Oranges

From crimson reds to burnt oranges, go outside of your comfort zone with these warm hues. This color palette is perfect for all skin tones, and can be incorporated with a variety of makeup looks. Since we’re sticking to fall trends, pair a matte red lipstick with neutral eyeshadows to let your lips be the center of attention. Orange eyeliners and eyeshadows are also a great way to add a pop of color on your lids!

Chiseled Charcoal

A super light dusting of a charcoal shadow can turn your fall makeup into something whimsical, yet sophisticated. The grey and black tones of charcoal can be combined with a jet black eyeliner and false lashes to up the intensity. Be sure to blend these colors to the outer edge of your eyelid, being careful not to smudge the shadow onto the rest of your face. However, if you do mess up, take a clean makeup wipe and carefully wipe away the mistake for a fresh start!

Conclusion

Using the latest techniques and skills in the makeup industry, our professional makeup artists at Beauty Studio Inc Mobile Hair and Makeup will give you a full face fall look. From touch ups to airbrush applications, we can customize any makeup style to your preference. Visit our website for more information on our makeup packages today!

Prom 2019 Makeup Trends

Prom season is coming to a close, which means it’s time to review the hottest makeup trends of 2019! One of the best parts of prom is the freedom to create whatever makeup look you want to rock. Without fear of too little or too much, the possibilities are endless! Keep reading through this blog to find inspiration from this year’s prom makeup looks.

Bold Lip

Bold makeup is one of the many fun ways to stand out on prom night. Many people believe a bold makeup look is hard to create, however, a bold lip color has never been easier! This year, many students took a leap of faith and went with daring and bright shades. They had the ability to play down the makeup on their eyes so the lips stood out. Plus, they could toss the lipstick tube in their bag and bring it with them for the night! This is a great way to stay glam from beginning to end. 

Smoldering Eyes

If you enjoy a challenge, a bold eye is a look for you! There are endless ways to play up the color, size, and shape of your eyes all based on the type of makeup you use. This year was all about finding the right shades and intensities. Whether a bold eyeshadow color was applied or a dramatic cat eye was the star of the show, there were so many different options to choose from. One of our favorite ways to make a statement is by adding a strip of false lashes! You simply pick the flair you love, trim to fit your eye, and glue them to your natural lash line. Your eyes will pop and by the end of the night, you can just gently take them off and reuse them again for another occasion! 

Subtle Glam

It is true what they say about less is more. In the case of those who chose bold dresses or hair, a played down makeup look stood out just as much as all the bold looks. While the idea of soft makeup doesn’t sound fun, there are still plenty of ways that the subtle looks were absolutely glamorous. Soft eyes using light shades of shadows and a few coats of mascara can make your eyes pop. Some people even found that putting a shiny lip gloss on their lids created a dewy and fresh appearance. With a light, warm blush on the apples of their cheeks, they were ready for all the photographs! 

Conclusion

There are many bold and daring makeup looks that were rocked for prom 2019. Whether you debuted a bold lip, dramatic eyes, or a subtle look, this year was definitely one for the books! For any other upcoming makeup needs, you may have, head on over to our website for inspiration and work from a professional!

3 Makeup Trends to Try in Spring 2019

New year, new looks. The fashion world influences everything from the clothes we wear, the hairstyles we choose to sport, and even our makeup looks. With the beginning of a new year in progress, it might be time to take a look at some fun and interesting makeup trends for the spring/summer of 2019. From the base to eyes and lips, every part of your makeup routine might get a little shaken up with these new looks.

No Foundation Skin

Every person that likes to wear makeup understands that the overall look is only as good as the canvas it’s on. Foundation has been providing such a base for many years, and yet, 2019 could see people moving away from applying it to their face. Many are making the switch to simply using concealer or blurring primer on their faces to give the same flawless look as foundation would; score 1 for those that sweat quite a lot and have never found the practicality of wearing a full face of foundation.

Bright Eyebrows

For the more adventurous souls in the audience, there’s now a trend of bright and colorful eyebrows that will be fun to try this spring and summer. So whether you’re looking for a fun makeup idea for your next party or simply wanting to experiment with fun looks and pigments, this trend is for you. This is a great look for when you’d like to go for a pale eye, but then add the burst of color on your brows. Just be careful to check your job’s dress code in the employee handbook before taking this look to work.

Glossy Lips

This trend is a resurgence of one from the 90s: just adding gloss to your lips. There are a lot of applications for this makeup trend this season, in fact some could make the argument that it never went out of style. This year’s glossy lips are showing themselves to be particularly lovely in a nude shade, without added color. So whether you want to relive the 90s with this look or simply like the effortlessness of it, this spring and summer will be a great time to add it to your routine.

Conclusion

If you’re looking to find the perfect addition to your makeup routine this year, these three looks will be sure to keep the inspiration coming. From fresh clean skin to a simple glossy lip, your 2019 spring makeup will be on point for sure. You could even use this time to test them with a friend or rock them by yourself, either way you’ll be sure to have a stunning 2019.
