where to look for inspiration from a make-up artist

Hi, I'm Anastasia Cheltsova! If you are a crazy fan of creating fantasy images and makeup, like me, or you are just interested in it, then in this blog I will be happy to share some of my tricks and cosmetics that help me make the image really interesting.

Yes, you heard right, you can really create looks with your makeup!

In creating creative images, I always use only one rule - no rules!

Let's start with preparing the skin!

Here the Illuminator base from the new ProVG collection will come to our aid. It's just cosmic! Creates an incredible glow thanks to the smallest light-reflecting particles and has a long-wearing finish without a sticky layer.

The skin is ready and we can start applying the foundation. And then I gave my heart to the tones of Collagen Moisture Foundation. Best + budget, excellent combination of price + quality. Moisturizes, and provides the skin with elasticity, due to SPF15 protecting against external factors harmful to the skin. After all, it doesn’t matter if we do make-up - skincare comes first. And, of course, let's not forget about the durability that these two products will provide.

 

We turn to the eyebrows and the question is: will the image be with or without them?

If without eyebrows, then I always hide them with Zola soap. It perfectly fixes the hairs for a long time! And if you are a little conservative and want to keep the eyebrows, then here I will give my preference to lipsticks from ProVG. Long-lasting, easy to apply, nice texture.

Now the most interesting thing is our work with the eyes. And here you have one limitation - it's your imagination!

The palette of shadows by ProVG is diverse and functional, but of course, I will not dissemble - I always have 385 thousand palettes of different brands open. When I create, it can be Huda Beauty or Lime Crime, but always on top of the shadows, I will add pressed pigments and ProVG multichromatic. Thanks to the translucent texture, excellent durability, and multi-color shining particles in the composition, your image will truly shine!

Of course, what kind of image without eyelashes? We will need long and voluminous ProVG or Nesura.

 

As for me, the image is revealed in the details!

If you decide to decorate the neckline or face with stones, then it is better to use Atelier Paris glue for this. About its durability and quality, I can sing an ode forever! If glitter is your choice, try Ultra Glitter, it will give you a dense application, and, most importantly, its texture shines from space. If desired, glitter can be added to the aloe gel and applied to the hair. This Korean gel is very versatile in application.

To create more exaggerated shadows for face correction, I like to use ProVG correctors. I especially like how the texture can be layered and it won't bleed or tear the tone.

Let's add the finishing touches to the lips. To create the kissed lips effect (which I really love) I have two options:

  • use ProVG shadows of any shades. You can apply a clear gloss over them to create a glossy effect.
  • use persistent pigmented tints for this purpose

For a glow above the lip, I apply oil shadows or ProVG multichromatic, in large quantities.

Imagine, create and enjoy your work! The main thing to remember is that there are no limits and rules for your imagination!
