Tattoos are so popular now, that a busy Camouflage Makeup artist has to have a plan ready to camouflage tattoos for weddings and other special occasions. This is especially important when you have a large bridal party, but not a lot of time. Getting all the makeup done quickly and beautifully can be a challenge. Trying to camouflage tattoos on top of a big job just adds to the pressure. Fortunately, there are some easy solutions that can be utilized in no time at all.
In general, airbrushing makeup is easy to learn and the application is amazingly fast. A whole face of foundation & blush can be applied in just minutes. It looks like you spent a lot of time when you really didn't. Also, the pictures come out better since airbrush makeup is designed to work for digital photography.
Once you learn how to apply foundation, the technique for applying Camouflage Makeup tattoos is not that much different. The key is in the layering of special foundation that covers completely but is also waterproof and smudge proof. Layers should go on thinly and no more than the base coat of white to go over the ink, and a thin layer of skin color. Any more than two layers may cause a wrinkling effect or a flaky appearance.
If you have long nose, you can use makeup to help create the illusion of a shorter nose. Highlight the nostril area with a light shade of foundation or concealer, and use a darker shade down the centre of the nose. This will make the nose appear wider and shorter. Avoid a hairstyle with a centre parting.
Apply a darker shade of foundation over the nose, and highlight the cheekbones with a lighter shade of foundation or concealer. Balance your profile with a hairstyle that adds volume to the back of your head a hairstyle that is flat at the back will emphasize a large nose.
For those with double chin, use a darker powder, such as a bronzer, to cover the offending area. To draw the eye away from the chin, emphasize your eyes or lips by using slightly brighter Camouflage Makeup. Anything around the neck, such as a high neckline, choker type necklace or scarf tied high, will draw attention to a double chin, so opt for open necklines, longer necklaces and loosely tied scarves.
