DIY Makeup Tips for a Flawless Look
If you’re doing your own makeup, don’t worry! I’ve got simple tips to help you achieve a professional finish. Follow these DIY makeup tricks to look fresh and glowing in your photos:
Prep Your Skin
Hydrated skin is the key to smooth makeup. Use a moisturizer and primer to create an even base and keep your makeup looking fresh all day.
Go Light on Foundation
Choose a medium-coverage foundation that matches your skin tone perfectly. A heavy foundation can look cakey under studio lights, so less is more. Opt for a matte or semi-matte finish to reduce shine.
Highlight, Don’t Overdo
Use highlighter strategically on your cheekbones and brow bones to add a soft glow. Avoid too much shimmer—just enough to give you that radiant pregnancy glow.
Soft Eyes, Bold Lashes
Skip dark smoky eyes and go for soft, neutral eyeshadow shades. Define your lashes with mascara or apply natural-looking false lashes for extra pop without overpowering your look.
Choose Long-Lasting Lip Color
A nude or soft pink lipstick complements most maternity outfits and keeps the focus on you. Make sure to use a lip stain or long-wear formula to avoid touch-ups during the shoot.
