Fashion Show Makeup:

Many people make the mistake of thinking that fashion show makeup is all about glamor and glitter. The truth is, there are a number of different types of shows and each kind requires its own type of makeup look. In this article, we will talk about which type of makeup you need for each type on a show as well as some tips and tricks to perfect your runway look.

What types of shows are there?

There are many different kinds of fashion shows. Whether it’s on the street, in a theater, or at an exclusive runway event you will need to know what type of makeup look is best for your face shape and skin tone! Some people make the mistake of thinking that all fashion shows are the same, but this simply isn’t true.

Theatrical Fashion Shows: These types of shows usually take place on a stage in front of an audience. The makeup look for these events is often very glamorized and theatrical. Think bold eyeshadow, false lashes, and lots of contouring! If you’re attending a theatrical fashion show, it’s best to go all out with your makeup look.

Types:

Street Fashion Shows:

Street fashion shows are just that – shows on the street! This type of event is usually less formal than a theatrical show and the makeup look should reflect this. Think natural beauty, dewy skin, and subtle eyeshadow.

Exclusive Fashion Shows:

These shows are usually invitation-only and take place in a very exclusive location, such as a private runway or members club. The makeup look for these events is often more subtle than other types of fashion shows. Think natural beauty with a focus on highlighting your best features.

 

What makeup look do you need for your show?

Now that you know the different types of fashion shows, it’s time to figure out what type of makeup look you need. We’ll break it down by show type!

Theatrical Fashion Shows:

If you’re attending a theatrical fashion show, you’ll need a glamorized and theatrical makeup look. This type of show often features bold colors, dramatic eyeshadow and lots of contouring.

Street Fashion Shows:

If you’re attending a street fashion show, you’ll need to go for a natural beauty look. Think dewy skin, subtle eyeshadow and nude lips.

Exclusive Fashion Shows:

If you’re attending an exclusive fashion show, you’ll need to go for a natural beauty look with a focus on highlighting your best features. Think subtle eyeshadow and blush, and highlighter on the cheekbones and bridge of the nose.

 

How to achieve the perfect fashion show makeup look:

Now that you know what type of makeup look you need for your fashion show, it’s time to learn how to achieve it! We’ve got some tips and tricks for you.

Theatrical Fashion Shows:

If you’re attending a theatrical fashion show, the makeup look is going to be very dramatic.

Use black eyeliner on both your top and bottom lash lines Use false lashes Add lots of contouring Apply a smokey eye shadow look

Street Fashion Shows:

If you’re attending a street fashion show, the makeup look will be more natural.

Use a bronzer on the cheekbones and temples Apply blush to both your cheeks and lips Use brown eyeliner only on the top lash line

Exclusive Fashion Shows: If you’re attending an exclusive fashion show, consider keeping your makeup look minimal.

 

Tip & Tricks:

– Use a highlighter on the cheekbones and bridge of the nose to really highlight your best features

– Apply blush in a circular motion to the apples of your cheeks for a natural flush

– For subtle eyeshadow, use light shades like champagne or beige

– To make your lips look fuller, apply a nude lipstick

– Use a lip liner in the same color as your lipstick to really define your lips

– For eyeliner, use a black or brown pencil liner on the top lash line and a dark shadow on the bottom lash line for a smokey look.

– If you’re using false lashes, make sure to use lash glue

– To prevent smudging, layer a translucent powder over your foundation and set with loose powder. You can also spray an anti-shine finishing mist to really make sure the makeup stays in place all day!

– Get ready for late night parties by using waterproof mascara on both your top and bottom lashes

– Use a black or brown pencil liner on the top lash line and a dark shadow on the bottom lash line for a smokey look.

Being backstage at a fashion show is so much more than just being a MakeUp artist. You are part of a family to get the show on the road. The trick is to all stick together, work with confidence, keep alert and of course ALWAYS smile and never loose focus. Its important to be on the ball as fashion shows can be a crazy rush backstage.

When it comes to fashion shows, they key thing to remember is timing is everything.  As beautiful and stunning fashion shows are from the front row, its not all glitz and glamour backstage. Backstage is where the months of hard work comes to life in a matter of hours. However, the rush is additive and the achievement you feel once the show has finished lasts for days.

This amazing experience gave our fantastic Lipstick Make Up Institute team to express their artistry in more ways than one. Each day kept us all on our toes, we all loved it and left us craving for more.  We got to work with fashion designers from around the world which we can all defiantly say this is a “pinch-me” moment. You might be there to do MakeUp but do not be surprised if you get pulled by someone to help dress a model, tidy a models hair or even to maybe run and get some water and food for everyone.
