Hello! Anyone have any tips for applying makeup to photos taken outdoors? I’m having graduate photos taken this summer because I couldn’t take them last year, and I don’t know how * too * heavy the makeup is. The photographer told me to go heavier overall on my makeup since it was washed off in the test photos I took, and also do a neutral lipstick as it defines my makeup more. lips. I recently got an eyeliner pencil that helped enhance my eye makeup, but I’m still on the hunt for a cruelty-free primer. Does the face primer also work as an eyeshadow primer or does it have to be an eyeshadow primer specifically?

Eyeshadow primer are often used to stop oils from messing up your eye make up so it’s better to use a eye primer. The elf one is cheap and does the job for me it’s also cruelty free ( peta approved)
Yes and Covergirl makes good primers. The eye one is called Lid Lock and it really works for me
