How to Do Makeup for Black & White Photos
- 1). Apply a matte foundation without sun block. Choose foundation a shade lighter than your skin to achieve contrast between your skin and your features.
- 2). Line your lips with a red liner and fill in with similarly colored matte lipstick. The darker the red, the darker your lips will appear in the picture. The goal is a high contrast between your skin and your lips.
- 3). Define your face with a bronzer. Brush the bronzer under your cheekbones and at your temples. Use a soft blush color to avoid dark streaks on your cheeks.
- 4). Line your eyes and apply mascara. Work toward a contrast between your skin and your features. Dark shadow colors will turn up black in your picture, so choose slightly softer shades.
