5 Beauty Tips to Enhance Photoshoots

Getting ready for the camera lenses in your next photo-shoot might seem difficult. Whether you are taking family photos or you are having school photos done, there are a few beauty tips you should keep in mind. 
 
There are a lot of things you can do to make yourself photogenic but here are some of the top tips you will find to get yourself ready for the day.
 

So without much ado, I present to you  beauty tips too enhance photoshoots.

Waxing

If you do have any type of eyebrow or facial waxing before your photo shoot, do it a few days before. This is especially true if you have problems with turning red after the wax is done. This can show up in your photos if you do not give it a few days for your skin to calm down before the shoot.

No New Makeup

This is not the time to try new makeup that you are not comfortable applying. It can turn out badly and you want to know what you are wearing. New colors are great to try out but not the day of the photo shoot. 
 
It can be hard to get the makeup off and then your face is red from scrubbing. Make sure you wear colors you are comfortable with and that you know work for you.

Avoid Caffeine

Make sure that for around 72 hours before your shoot. This will help prevent you from having puffy eyes or faces. You want to stay hydrated and avoid those foods you may have a reaction to. Leave the coffee, sodas and spicy foods for after your shoot is over.

Right Clothes

Consider where your photo shoot will be. Darker clothes can flatter your figure and help you feel confident during the shoot. Some families like to match colors and or wear colors that complement each other. 
 
These are great ideas. If you are going to have a photo shoot in the hot part of the year be sure you wear items that will not show sweat or that you won't get too hot in.

Bring Touch Up Makeup

It's always a great idea to bring some touch up makeup while you are on the shoot site. This is in case you are hot under the lights or you just want to make sure your makeup is still where you want it to be. 
 
Some of the photo lights can be hot and the Canon digital cameras can pick up lots of tiny details. Make sure that you have all tan lines covered up because they will show up in your pictures.

In Closing

These are just a few tips to help you feel confident and great about your next photo-shoot. Whether you are taking head shots for a company or you are doing a family shoot, these tips can help you look your best in front of the camera. 
 
Remember to keep the new makeup colors for another time. Don't use excess in your clothing or makeup. Coordinating your clothing and using darker colors look beautiful in shots.

Aloevera, the wonder herb

Of all the herbs available in the kitchen garden, aloe is perhaps the richest in healing properties and has been rightly named the “first-aid” plant. It has moisturizing and emollient properties and is used in cosmetic creams, sun-lotions, shaving creams and face packs. It can easily be cultivated as a house-plant in a sunny warm spot with good drainage. Cosmetologists mix aloe with several other herbs and draft fancy names for it. Then these “herbal” avatars are sold at exorbitant prices. Growing a plant and using fresh gel is much more effective than bottled gel, simply because it is alive and therefore is more potent. It is the only plant whose extract is applied directly from plant to face in its natural and purest form.

I Tried a Headache Balm and Ended Up with Rashes

I do have this habit of slathering pain balms whenever I have a headache. But never did I get a skin reaction or rashes from it. It so happened that I had an extremely severe headache a few months ago.  The pain was so unbearable that I gingerly reached out for a pain balm kept on my bedside table and kept on slathering it repeatedly all over the temples of my forehead. Next morning, after I woke up, I found that the skin on my forehead was peeling off and worse there were red rashes!  This was the first time in my life that I was getting rashes from applying a pain balm on my forehead !  I have never had any pain balm allergy or as such!  Side-effects due to application of a pain balm  was something I've never come across all these years! I usually use pain balms of reputed companies – my usual favourites are Tiger balm, Amrutanjan, Zandu balm and Sloan’s balm.  This time I had used Tiger balm. But why did it  give me rashes now, when I had used it...
