#contour guide for beginners

[thatdelicateangel777]

.•౨*🎀*ৎ•. a guide to igari makeup!.•౨*🎀*ৎ•.

this japanese makeup trend has been viral for a couple of years now. igari makeup, also known as 'drunk/hangover makeup' uses a ton of blush, particularly, peachy, coral lotus pink blushes that goes under your eyes, through your nose and lids. this makeup is very natural and can elevate your natural features, this makeup style is also school friendly and beginner friendly!!!

.•౨*🎀*ৎ•. ...............................•౨*🎀*ৎ•.

1. prep first! (moisturizer, sunscreen or primer.)

after prepping, go grab your concealer and cover any blemishes or spots.

2. nose contouring, after contour add a lil bit of highlight in the tip of your nose. (you can do your brows if u want to.)

3. the fun part, BLUSH! now, I'd personally recommend really, really pastel pink blushes like the one in the pictures above, but if u have diff shades, try experimenting and mix the shades that's what i do lol. I'd also recommend a liquid blush for this. add blush in the apple of your cheeks, under ur eyes, ur lids.

4. mascara!!!!! and a brown eyeliner is a must! add a bit of aegyo sal if u want.

5. lips. lips is pretty simple, just a pink lipstick and u're done!!!

.•౨*🎀*ৎ•.thank uuu, pls give this blog a follow!! all pics are from Pinterest, credits to the owner.!.•౨*🎀*ৎ•.

Ok from a transfemme to a trans woman - how do you makeup? I've been wanting to get into it for so long but the first time I tried was an absolute disaster, and I can't find any tutorials that go through the absolute beginner basics

tbh, you have to just keep on doing it even though it’s a complete disaster. i started my transition in 2020 but i was doing makeup and “cross dressing” for nearly 8 years before i considered myself to be trans. and it was years before i was able to do makeup to the point where i felt good about the way that i looked every time i did it.

that being said, there’s no guide that’s gonna be able to tell you everything you need to know but i’ll try to give as many tips and jumping points i can in order for you to try out things and figure out what to look up.

- make up is different for everyone - everyone has a different face shape, eye shape, cheekbones, jawline, complexion, etc. and the way to do makeup that looks good for you specifically is going to vary a shit ton based on those things. when you look up stuff, look up how to do makeup for a certain set of features. figure out what face shape you have, skin types for foundation, etc.

- there’s no one right way to do it - i do a bunch of things that are “technically incorrect” because i’ve tried it the “right” way and it just didn’t work for me. so i figured out something that i liked instead and make that a technique i used regularly. also even though people will say you’re supposed to do certain things, a different technique might yield a different result. as an example, conventional wisdom will say use primer, foundation, then a translucent or setting powder, then a setting spray. recently a very popular technique has been using moisturizer, then setting powder, then setting spray, THEN putting on all your other makeup and supposedly it lasts longer. there’s literally no “correct” way, it’s just whatever works.

- blend the shit out of everything. this is the one technique which pretty much applies for everyone. blend blend blend blend. i like using a beauty sponge. run it under the tap for a second (literally a second, you want it moist not wet) to wet the sponge and then use dabbing motions to blend your makeup.

- asking for help at makeup stores helps A LOT. i’ve had really really good experiences asking for help at makeup stores even though i was super uncomfortable with the idea at first. i found that a lot of people were judgement free and even very gender affirming even when i was presenting masc. and i live in the south!

okay now to more granular stuff - here’s the basics of what i would consider to go into a “full face” makeup routine - primer, foundation, concealer, highlight/contour, setting. eye makeup would add additional things - eyeliner, mascara/lashes, eyeshadow. lips add additional things as well - lipstick, lipliner. ill try to go through the entire process and add my fav products or two. (i should probably make this into a video series tbh)

1) primer - it protects your skin and makes your makeup stay longer and look better. use it.

- my fav: the ordinary - high fluidity primer

2) color correcting concealer - an optional step for transfemmes like me with darker colored facial hair. using a reddish or orangish color correcting concealer or lipstick over the areas where your facial hair shows through the skin will neutralize the shadow that shows through foundation. add a little bit, sparingly, blend with a sponge.

- my fav: la girl color correcting concealer orange

(the best one of these is made by dragun beauty who is a trans woman…but who did blackface…so don’t buy her shit)

3) foundation - figuring out your color is hard. look up a guide, ask in store, try a bunch of different ones. there’s a difference in coverages. full coverage means its made to cover everything. buildable means you need to apply and blend a few times and is good for if you don’t want heavy coverage everywhere. don’t use too much otherwise you’ll look like a plastic doll. unless you want to look like that then go nuts. blend the shit out of it so that it doesn’t cake up.

- my fav: juvias place bc it’s full coverage and actually has my skin tone as an asian person

4) concealer - this is different from color corrector and i usually do this after foundation. this is just a touch up for any blemishes, dark spots under eyes, pimples, shit like that. just use a tiny tiny dab and blend. this is also hard to get your color right so get help if you can.

- my fav: colourpop concealer, or nars concealer if you’re a fancy bitch

5) blush - i don’t really use blush much but blush is one of those things where you should look up a guide for how your face is shaped. positioning blush in different ways will help shape your face in different ways.

6) contouring - okay this is the hard one. i can’t tell you how to contour your face because this is one that varies a shit ton from person to person. the basic gist of it tho is that you are using a contouring stick, bronzer, or palette to add shadows to your face. when you put on foundation it makes everything an even color and makes you look flat, so contouring is basically drawing those shadows back in to contour your face. you can do this in so many ways even for your own face so imo, you experiment and see how you like it. typical places for contour to go will be under my cheekbones, on my nose bridge, sometimes under my jaw to slim the face.

- my fav: i can’t remember i’ll come back to this one

also i drew this diagram a long time ago to help myself get the idea of where i wanted to put it on my own face and i went from there. the brown was contour and the other color was highlight. i don’t do it like this at all anymore but it helped to get the basic idea at first.

7) highlight - the opposite of contour where you’re making certain parts of your face brighter to contrast the darker parts. typically goes on your cheekbones and nose.

- my fav: watts up by benefit

8) translucent powder/setting powder - okay so this one can either go after foundation, before blush, contour, highlighter, or here. basically it’s a powder that goes evenly over your whole face to help your makeup stay where it is. personally i usually do it after foundation instead of here but either works. basically you take a powder brush (the big floofy ones) and then put it all over lightly.

- my fav: nyx hd finishing powder

9) setting spray - it’s a spray that you put on last to help your makeup stay where it is. shake up the bottle real good and just mist it all over.

- my fav: tarte shape tape stay spray

okay i’m tired now and that’s plenty for now. i’ll update with lip and eye stuff later.

Maybe you have some drawing tips for beginners?

Your style is incredibly beautiful and it just inspires this thing inside me to grab my iPad and start drawing but unfortunately I have no idea where to even begin

Or maybe you have some recs where to look to learn how to draw stuff?

But I understand completely that it’s your thing and artists should never feel pressured to share all their techniques and secrets, you worked hard on it!

I just really really love your art to the point where I just look at it for 30 minutes straight with this big feeling in my chest

<3

ah it was never about being secretive, i'm pretty open about my drawing process since gatekeeping knowledge is a big pet peeve of mine. It was more like,, laziness because writing a cohesive and helpful drawing tutorial is pretty difficult and i wouldn't even know where to start; i'm afraid i'll get maybe too technical and what have you.

As for tips for beginners, i've shared plenty on my couriouscat so you can scroll through the answers there, i also have some drawing timelapses on my twitter account as well (albeit you'll have to scroll a little)

I'm very flattered you feel that way about my art, it really means a lot to me and i'm glad to have inspired you to draw as well that's awesome and i wish you best of luck!

I actually don't know how different drawing on an iPad is compared to a graphic tablet+desktop, so I am actually pretty clueless in that regard. I think Procreate is the most used digital art app for iPad so you can start by getting it and familiarizing yourself with the UI. I think this step is often overlooked. The brushes and the chosen program can make or break the drawing experience. If you simply find yourself not enjoying Procreate, experiment with other apps or maybe try switching to a graphic tablet, maybe that feels better and is more suited to your tastes.

To be completely honest, one "bad" piece of advice that i should probably keep to myself is to draw something you actually enjoy: fanart, Pretty Girl Portrait(tm), your cat, landscapes etc even if it's above your skill level (becoming obsessed/ fixated on some character from a piece of media also works wonders i'm just gonna throw that out there). The main point is to actually care about your chosen subject in order to get inspired and to have that inner desire of "doing them justice" aka drawing them well. The traditional art learning route probably involves studying the fundamentals, shading spheres and cones and simple 3D forms blablbablah which. Yeah ! sure that's probably better advice but i'm telling you what will make you want to keep going and not get discouraged after a few failed attempts.

As for the drawing subject, I highly recommend having photo references to guide you.. you always need refs it's a recurring thing. My fastest artworks are the ones where I have the right references. the less references the more difficult it is to draw something

As a beginner it is also a good practice to draw OVER your photo reference to get the proportions right ( i'm not talking about literally tracing the contour of a face or limb ( just an example ), but moreso identifying the Main shape which makes up that body part and observe how long is it in respect to the other components, how does it connect to the other parts etc - big difference. Tracing won't help you in the long run).

Another thing you can do is to study your favourite artists and see how They tackle whatever it is that you like in their work. how do they simplify facial features? what about anatomy? color/ light etc and kinda reverse engineer your way through their process. ( but i highly recommend to just keep these practice sketches to yourself, and to not share them on social media- unless you get the artist's permission)

This is how i got into drawing and what i did back then, again, for more technical hands-on information i did answer similar CCs before so with a little bit of stalking you'll find them in no time

I wanna finish this with some resources that helped me:

>youtube guys - sinix, ahmed aldoori, marco bucci, and also just speedpaints in general i highly recommend watching those

>for simplified anatomy i found @/ taco1704 's ref sheets to be very helpful but ........... I'm pretty dry here i just look up refs on Pinterest tbvh

speaking of, here's my pinterest i have a bunch of art related boards board cool stuff overall maybe they can help guide you towards some direction or inspire you in some way idk

ok i kinda suck in the resource department listeN. im starving too just.................. watch youtube speedpaints ok

SORRY IT'S SO LONGGGBGGG i hope it was at least a bit helpful? this was all over the place... I'll try to come up with a tutorial as well but i really gotta be careful with how i go about it. I'll leave you with this for the time being. Again, thank you a lot for the kind words, I really am very grateful and touched esp by that last part about staring with the big feeling stuff eeeeeeeeeeeeee really wow T T that's so lovely and a big compliment thanks ty ly

would you mind giving some pointers for people who want to learn how to make gifs (and are completely clueless)? ❤️

hello, thank you for the ask ❤️

tl;dr - used these two (guide for beginners & how to make hq gifs) great tutorials to learn but more under the cut.

i'm not quite sure why after seeing my gifs you thought "yeah, that's the one", but thank you and sorry if i misled you into somehow thinking i know what i'm doing. instead of me blindly leading you down the wrong path, here is a list of tutorials and sources that helped me:

Getting Started - 1) if you don't have ps, photopea is a great website equivalent. if you want a cracked version of ps for mac or pc, dm me and ill give a link. 2) I used screen recorder pro to capture video or if I'm super lazy, I just use the screen record function on my android phone. Either one doesn't give you the highest quality, which might bother you in the long run. There are other ways though. @kylos created this tutorial on how to download HQ videos and i think vapoursynth is quite popular amongst kpop gifmakers. 3) @usergif compiles a lot of tutorials.

Tutorials -

@saw-x - guide for beginners.

@f1-stuff - how to make hq gifs.

@quokki - full process

@jasonkelce - how to gif (very informative post and includes other tutorials)

@woozis - pretty comprehensive process + sharpening + contouring

@anya-chalotra - sizing and sharpening

@haleths - sharpening

@userdramas - sharpening

@jeonghan-yoons colouring

quokki's - colouring

@rotatemp3 - colouring

usergif's - what format to save

CC community has been super helpful and nice. I'm sure if you ask any gif-maker they can help you out with more tips and pointers. My only tip really is to have fun. hope that helps ❤️🍉

Cute Gojo Satoru - Easy Drawing Tutorial

Gojo Satoru, the charismatic and powerful sorcerer from the hit manga and anime series "Jujutsu Kaisen," is a fan favorite known for his striking appearance and playful personality. Drawing a cute version of Gojo Satoru can be a fun and rewarding experience, even for beginners. This step-by-step guide will help you capture his charm in an easy and approachable way.

Materials Needed:

Pencil

Eraser

Drawing paper

Fine-tip black pen (optional for inking)

Colored pencils or markers (optional for coloring)

Step 1: Basic Head Shape

Start by drawing a simple circle for Gojo's head. This will be the foundation of his cute, chibi-style appearance. Lightly sketch a vertical and horizontal line across the circle to help place the facial features symmetrically.

Step 2: Facial Features

Begin by drawing large, expressive eyes slightly below the horizontal guideline. Chibi characters often have oversized eyes to enhance their cuteness. Draw a small curved line for the nose just below the eyes, and a simple curved line for the mouth to give Gojo a cheerful expression.

Step 3: Hair Outline

Sketch the outline of Gojo's iconic spiky hair. Start by drawing the hairline, which follows the curve of the top of the head. Then, add large, pointed spikes that extend outward. Keep the spikes slightly exaggerated to maintain the chibi style.

Step 4: Body Shape

Draw a small, simple body below the head. Chibi characters have proportionally larger heads and smaller bodies. Use basic shapes like rectangles and ovals to outline the torso, arms, and legs. Position the arms and legs in a relaxed or playful pose to enhance the cute appearance.

Step 5: Clothing Details

Add details to Gojo's outfit. Draw the collar of his high-necked jacket, and add simple lines to indicate the folds and seams. Keep the details minimal to maintain the chibi style. You can add his blindfold or his sunglasses on top of his head for extra character.

Step 6: Hands and Feet

Sketch small, simple hands and feet. Chibi hands can be drawn with just a few curved lines to suggest fingers, and the feet can be simple ovals or rectangles. Keep the proportions small and cute.

Step 7: Finalize the Outline

Go over your sketch, refining the lines and adding any additional details. Make sure the proportions are accurate and the lines are clean. Erase any unnecessary guidelines and adjust any elements to perfect the overall appearance.

Step 8: Inking (Optional)

For a polished look, use a fine-tip black pen to outline your drawing. Carefully trace over the pencil lines, making sure to follow the contours of Gojo's features and clothing. Allow the ink to dry before erasing any remaining pencil marks.

Step 9: Coloring (Optional)

Add color to your drawing using colored pencils or markers. Choose appropriate colors for Gojo's hair, eyes, and outfit. Use light, pastel shades to enhance the cute, chibi appearance. Add shading and highlights to create depth and dimension.

Step 10: Final Touches

Add any final touches, such as additional shading, highlights, or small details, to enhance the overall look of your drawing. Step back and admire your cute version of Gojo Satoru, appreciating the effort you've put into capturing his charm.

Conclusion:

Drawing a cute version of Gojo Satoru from "Jujutsu Kaisen" can be an enjoyable and accessible project for artists of all levels. By following these simple steps and embracing the chibi style, you can capture the playful and endearing side of this beloved character. Remember to practice regularly and have fun expressing your creativity through your artwork!

Tips for portrait photography

Essential Tips for Capturing Stunning Portrait Photography

Portrait photography is an art that requires a balance of technical skills and a keen eye for capturing the essence of your subject. Whether you’re a seasoned photographer or a beginner, understanding the nuances of light, composition, and interaction with your subject can elevate your portraits to new heights. Here are some essential tips to help you capture stunning portraits.

1. Master the Lighting

Lighting is the cornerstone of great portrait photography. The way you light your subject can dramatically influence the mood and impact of the photo.

Front Lighting: Lighting your subject from the front is a technique that inspires clarity and confidence. It evenly illuminates the face, reducing shadows and blemishes, which results in a clean and bright portrait. This type of lighting is perfect for headshots and professional portraits where you want to convey a sense of approachability and sincerity.

Side Lighting: For a more dramatic and character-filled portrait, light your subject from the side. Side lighting creates depth and texture, highlighting the contours of the face and adding a sense of mystery or intensity to the image. This technique is excellent for artistic portraits where you want to capture the emotional depth of your subject.

2. Choose the Right Background

The background of your portrait can either complement your subject or distract from them. Always aim for a background that enhances the overall composition without drawing attention away from the subject. Simple, uncluttered backgrounds work best. You can also use shallow depth of field (achieved by using a wide aperture) to blur the background and keep the focus on your subject.

3. Focus on the Eyes

The eyes are the windows to the soul, and in portrait photography, they are crucial. Ensure the eyes are in sharp focus, as they are typically the first thing viewers notice. Catchlights (reflections of light in the eyes) can add a sparkle and bring your portrait to life. Positioning your light source to create catchlights will make your subject’s eyes more engaging.

4. Experiment with Angles and Composition

Don’t be afraid to experiment with different angles and compositions. Shooting from a slightly higher angle can make your subject’s eyes appear larger and more expressive, while a lower angle can add a sense of power and dominance. Use the rule of thirds to place your subject off-center for a more dynamic and interesting composition.

5. Communicate and Build Rapport

Great portraits capture the personality and essence of your subject, which requires a level of comfort and trust between the photographer and the subject. Spend time getting to know your subject, make them feel at ease, and guide them through different poses and expressions. Genuine emotions and relaxed poses will result in more natural and compelling portraits.

6. Use Reflectors and Diffusers

Reflectors and diffusers are essential tools for controlling light in portrait photography. Reflectors can bounce light back onto your subject to fill in shadows, while diffusers can soften harsh light. These tools are especially useful for outdoor shoots where the lighting conditions can be unpredictable.

7. Post-Processing

Post-processing is the final step to enhance your portraits. Use editing software to adjust exposure, contrast, and color balance. Retouching can help remove blemishes and imperfections, but remember to keep it subtle to maintain a natural look. Enhancing the eyes, sharpening details, and adjusting the overall tone can make your portraits stand out.

By mastering these tips, you can create portraits that not only capture the physical appearance of your subjects but also convey their inner character and emotions. Whether you’re shooting in a studio or on location, the key is to experiment, communicate, and always be mindful of how light and composition can transform your portraits.

Kardi

My final choice is Kardi Black. She's another UK based YouTuber who does a lot of tutorials, makeup reviews and beginner's guides. They're very down to earth and really good at explaining things...even if I sometimes fail to match their example (entirely down to my lack of practice!).

The outfit is pink again but it's a harder pink than Luna's look. I like how it's "smart" but still shows cleavage, how they've used a neutral lip to make the overall look a little less overwhelming and the highlighting/contouring is very effective too.

It's a much more classic "draggy" look, with the heavy makeup and strong eyes and the hair really adds to it's sleekness.

It would be something of a mid-point between the other two looks, available but not slutty, if he plays his cards right the night could very definitely end with something more than a peck on the cheek but it's not a guarantee he has to make the effort!

10 Must-Know Makeup Tips for a Flawless Look

Achieving a flawless makeup look is often seen as an art form, requiring both skill and the right techniques. Whether you're just starting out or you're looking to refine your skills, mastering the basics is essential. Below, we’ll explore ten must-know makeup tips that will guide you toward achieving a flawless look every time. As you dive into these tips, remember that seeking professional guidance from a Makeup Academy can significantly enhance your skillset.

1. Start with a Well-Prepared Base for Smooth Makeup Application

The foundation of flawless makeup starts with well-prepped skin. Before touching a makeup brush, ensure your skin is clean, hydrated, and primed. Begin with a gentle cleanser to remove any impurities, followed by a moisturizer suitable for your skin type. A well-moisturized face ensures that your foundation glides on smoothly without emphasizing dry patches or imperfections. Using a primer afterward helps to create an even surface, minimizing the appearance of pores and increasing the longevity of your makeup.

Pro Tips: Many students skip skincare, resulting in patchy, uneven makeup. A Makeup Academy emphasizes the importance of skincare routines in creating the perfect canvas.

2. The Importance of Choosing the Right Foundation for Your Skin Type

Choosing the correct foundation can make or break your look. The key is selecting a formula that complements both your skin type (oily, dry, or combination) and your undertone (warm, cool, or neutral). Opt for lightweight, breathable foundations for oily skin and hydrating formulas for dry skin. Matching your foundation perfectly to your neck ensures a seamless blend, avoiding the dreaded 'mask effect.'

Pro Tips: Struggling to find the right shade or formula? This is often a major frustration, but a Makeup Academy can teach you to assess undertones and choose the best match for clients or yourself.

3. Blending Techniques That Can Transform Your Makeup Game

Proper blending is the difference between amateur and professional-looking makeup. To achieve a natural, glowing look, using the right tools is essential. Makeup sponges, like beauty blenders, help blend foundation and concealer smoothly without leaving streaks. Brushes are excellent for more controlled applications like eyeshadow or contouring. Always blend in soft, circular motions and ensure there are no harsh lines.

Pro Tips: Student Pain Point: Inconsistent blending results in an uneven, cakey look. Professional guidance at a Makeup Academy can help you master blending techniques for a flawless finish.

4. How to Achieve Perfectly Shaped Eyebrows with Minimal Effort

Eyebrows frame your face and can drastically impact your overall look. Rather than over-plucking or over-filling, aim for a shape that complements your natural brow structure. Use brow pencils or powders in soft strokes to fill in sparse areas, and a brow gel to keep hairs in place. Remember, symmetrical doesn’t always mean identical; natural-looking brows are more flattering.

Pro Tips: Many beginners find shaping eyebrows difficult and often overdo them. At a Makeup Academy, you'll learn the art of shaping brows without overcomplicating the process.

5. The Art of Applying Eyeshadow for Different Eye Shapes

Eyeshadow application isn't one-size-fits-all. The shape of your eyes determines how you should apply eyeshadow for the best results. For example, those with hooded eyes benefit from keeping the crease darker to create depth, while almond-shaped eyes look great with winged-out shadow. Layering shades from light to dark, and blending them properly, adds dimension and drama to your eyes.

Pro Tips: Students often struggle with applying eyeshadow for their eye shape. A Makeup Academy can teach you tailored techniques to suit every eye type, enhancing your natural beauty.

6. Eyeliner Styles That Can Elevate Your Overall Look

Eyeliner is a powerful tool for defining your eyes. From a classic wing to a subtle tight line, the possibilities are endless. The key to flawless eyeliner is using the right type—whether gel, liquid, or pencil—based on your preferred look. Practice makes perfect, but using techniques like resting your elbow on a table for steadiness can help you achieve sharper lines.

Pro Tips: Achieving symmetry with eyeliner can be tricky. Learning various eyeliner styles and techniques in a Makeup School can help you confidently create the perfect line.

7. Contouring and Highlighting Tricks for Defined Features

Contouring and highlighting can give your face more dimension and enhance your natural features. Use a contour shade slightly darker than your skin tone on areas like the hollows of your cheeks, jawline, and the sides of your nose. Highlight the high points of your face—cheekbones, the bridge of your nose, and your brow bone—for a radiant look. The goal is to enhance your features subtly, not overdo it.

Pro Tips: Many struggle with placement and blending when it comes to contouring. Professional instruction from a Beauty School can make mastering this advanced technique easier.

8. How to Choose the Right Lip Color for Your Skin Tone

The right lip color ties your entire look together. While it may be tempting to go for trendy shades, choosing a lip color that complements your skin tone is crucial. Warm tones work well with peachy nudes, corals, and reds, while cooler undertones look stunning in berry, mauve, or blue-based reds.

Pro Tips: Students often find it challenging to match lip colors to their skin tone. A Makeup School provides insights into color theory, helping you make more informed decisions.

9. Setting Your Makeup for All-Day Wear with the Right Products

The key to long-lasting makeup is setting it properly. After applying your products, use a setting powder to lock everything in place and prevent shine, especially if you have oily skin. For a dewy finish, opt for a setting spray instead. The right setting products ensure your makeup stays put all day without looking cakey or heavy.

Pro Tips: Many students complain about makeup that doesn't last. With professional training at a beauty school, you'll learn the correct way to put on makeup for various skin types and occasions.

10. Final Touches: Why a Light Hand with Blush and Bronzer Matters

A common mistake many beginners make is applying too much blush or bronzer. The goal is to add a healthy flush of color to your cheeks or warmth to your face, not to overpower it. Use a light hand, build the color slowly, and blend thoroughly for a natural glow. Less is often more when it comes to these finishing touches.

Pro Tips: Over-applying blush and bronzer is a frequent issue. Professional training from a Beauty School can teach you how to balance these elements for a refined, polished look.

By mastering these essential makeup techniques, you can elevate your everyday look and gain confidence in your abilities. Whether you're perfecting your makeup routine or pursuing a professional path, learning from experts at a Makeup Academy will ensure you’re equipped with the right skills and knowledge to create flawless looks every time.

Today, we're exploring an easy, natural guy makeup tutorial perfect for beginners. Achieving that flawless, everyday look doesn't have to be complicated. Let's get started on your journey to a fresh and undetectable finish!

Prepping Your Skin

Before diving into makeup, it's essential to prep your skin. A well-prepped face ensures your makeup sits beautifully and lasts longer. Start with a good cleanser to remove any dirt or oil. Follow up with a moisturizer to hydrate your skin. Choose one with SPF to protect your skin from the sun.

Choosing the Right Products

Selecting the right products can make all the difference. Here are a few tips:

Moisturizer: Opt for one with SPF 50 for added protection.

Primer: Use a mattifying primer to control shine.

Foundation: Pick a shade that matches your neck to avoid any noticeable lines.

Applying the Base

Now, let's move on to the base makeup. This step is crucial for achieving a natural look.

Foundation Application

Applying foundation is easier than you think! Here’s a step-by-step guide:

Dot Foundation: Use a minimal amount and dot it on the outer corners of your face.

Blend: Work it into your skin using a brush or sponge, ensuring even coverage.

Focus Areas: Pay extra attention to blending around the hairline and jawline.

Concealer for a Fresh Look

Concealer is your best friend for hiding those pesky dark circles and blemishes.

Inner Corners: Apply a small amount to the inner corners of your eyes.

Blend Gently: Use your finger to pat it in, blending seamlessly with your foundation.

Spot Conceal: Dab on any blemishes or redness for a flawless finish.

Adding Color and Dimension

Once your base is set, it's time to add some life back into your face with a bit of color and dimension.

Subtle Contouring

Contouring can enhance your natural features without looking overdone.

Choose a Contour Stick: Opt for a shade slightly darker than your skin tone.

Apply Sparingly: Dab it under your cheekbones and along your jawline.

Blend Well: Use a brush to blend it out for a natural, shadowy effect.

Finishing Touches with Blush

Adding a touch of blush brings a healthy glow to your skin.

Select a Blush: Choose a subtle, natural shade.

Apply Lightly: Sweep it across your cheeks and nose for a sun-kissed look.

Blend Again: Ensure it melds well with your foundation and contour.

Perfecting the Details

The final steps are all about refining and perfecting your look.

Eyebrows and Lashes

Even the smallest details can make a big difference.

Eyebrows: Brush through your brows and fill in any sparse areas with a pencil.

Lashes: Use a light coat of mascara or cake eyeliner to darken your lashes without adding texture.

Setting Everything in Place

Setting your makeup ensures it stays put all day long.

Setting Powder: Apply a translucent powder to your T-zone to control shine.

Setting Spray: Finish with a hydrating setting spray for a natural glow.

Conclusion

Art Classes in New Haven: Building Skills in Drawing and Painting

New Haven is renowned for its rich cultural heritage, vibrant arts scene, and deep commitment to creative expression. Among the various disciplines taught across the city, drawing and painting remain at the core of art education. These foundational practices are essential for any aspiring artist, providing the tools needed to bring their ideas and visions to life. From beginners looking to explore their artistic potential to seasoned artists refining their techniques, New Haven offers a wealth of art classes focused on building skills in drawing and painting.

In this article, we will explore how these classes provide students with a deep understanding of traditional and modern approaches to these disciplines, focusing on the benefits of both. Although Joyful Creations Studio offers a variety of courses in both art forms, the city is full of additional opportunities for learning and creative growth.

The Importance of Drawing: The Foundation of All Visual Art

Drawing is often considered the most fundamental of all visual arts. It is the starting point for nearly every other medium, whether it be painting, sculpture, or even digital art. In New Haven, art classes New Haven emphasize the importance of developing a strong foundation in observational skills, line work, and the ability to translate the three-dimensional world onto a two-dimensional surface.

Basic Techniques and Fundamentals

Many art schools and studios in New Haven begin their drawing courses by teaching the core principles of art: line, shape, form, value, and proportion. These concepts are vital for artists to accurately represent the world around them. Courses typically focus on still life, portraits, and landscapes, using traditional materials such as graphite, charcoal, and ink.

For beginners, art classes New Haven are often designed to break down the intimidating nature of creating art into more manageable exercises. Instructors guide students through simple practices, like gesture drawing, which helps them capture the essence of a subject quickly. Contour drawing, another common exercise, emphasizes the importance of observing details closely, training the eye to notice fine nuances in form and structure.

In these classes, students are encouraged to experiment with different materials, allowing them to explore various textures and mark-making techniques. Whether it’s the precision of a graphite pencil or the boldness of a charcoal stick, each tool offers unique possibilities for artistic expression.

Advanced Drawing Techniques

For those who have mastered the basics, New Haven’s advanced drawing classes provide a deeper dive into more complex techniques. Courses often explore figure drawing, where students study the human form, capturing its movement and anatomy. These classes are often taught with live models, giving students the opportunity to practice drawing from life, a critical skill in many artistic disciplines.

Perspective and shading are also heavily emphasized in advanced drawing classes. Students learn how to create the illusion of depth and three-dimensionality by mastering light and shadow. By understanding how to manipulate values, artists can give their drawings a lifelike quality, whether they’re working with pencil, ink, or charcoal.

Moreover, advanced art classes New Haven often encourage students to develop their own unique style and artistic voice. Instructors may assign projects that challenge students to experiment with abstraction, narrative storytelling, or even combining drawing with other mediums like collage or printmaking.

Painting: A World of Color and Emotion

While drawing focuses primarily on line and form, painting adds the dimension of color, allowing artists to evoke mood, emotion, and atmosphere. Art classes New Haven range from traditional oil and watercolor techniques to more experimental approaches, such as acrylic pouring or mixed media. These courses guide students through the process of working with paint, from mixing colors to mastering brushwork.

Oil Painting: The Classic Medium

Oil painting has long been regarded as one of the most prestigious and versatile mediums in the art world. New Haven is home to many art studios that specialize in teaching oil painting, offering students a chance to work with this rich, slow-drying paint that allows for blending and layering.

In oil painting classes, students often begin by learning about color theory and how to mix pigments to create the desired hues. Color is a powerful tool in oil painting, and understanding how colors interact on the canvas is essential for achieving harmony in a composition. Students are also taught how to build layers of paint, starting with underpainting and working their way to the final glazes. This technique gives oil paintings their characteristic depth and luminosity.

Instructors in New Haven’s oil painting classes emphasize the importance of patience and practice, as the medium can be challenging for beginners. However, once mastered, oil paints offer endless possibilities for texture, detail, and expressive brushwork.

Watercolor: Light, Fluid, and Spontaneous

Watercolor, in contrast to oil painting, is known for its lightness, transparency, and immediacy. Many artists are drawn to watercolor because of its spontaneity; the way the paint flows and interacts with water can create beautiful, unexpected effects. Watercolor painting is particularly popular in art classes New Haven, as it encourages artists to embrace the unpredictable nature of the medium.

In watercolor classes, students learn to control the flow of water and pigment, creating both soft, subtle washes and bold, defined strokes. The medium requires a delicate balance of control and freedom, making it ideal for artists who enjoy a more fluid, intuitive approach to painting.

Watercolor techniques such as wet-on-wet, where the paint is applied to a wet surface, and dry brush, where minimal water is used to create texture, are frequently explored in these courses. Classes also cover essential skills like layering washes to build up color and tone, as well as the importance of using high-quality paper that can withstand the medium’s demands.

Acrylic Painting: Versatile and Bold

Acrylic painting is another popular choice among New Haven’s art classes. Unlike oil paints, acrylics dry quickly, allowing artists to work more spontaneously and make adjustments on the fly. Acrylics are known for their versatility, as they can mimic the appearance of both watercolors and oils, depending on how they’re used.

Acrylic painting classes often appeal to beginners because of the forgiving nature of the medium—mistakes can easily be painted over, and the fast drying time allows for quick progress. Instructors guide students through the process of color mixing, brush techniques, and the application of texture, whether through thick impasto strokes or smooth, even layers.

For more advanced students, acrylic painting classes in New Haven may delve into experimental techniques, such as pouring, glazing, or using additives like gels and pastes to alter the paint’s texture. This allows for endless possibilities when it comes to creating abstract or highly detailed works.

Building a Strong Foundation: The Role of Art Classes in Skill Development

What sets New Haven’s art classes apart is their focus on not just teaching technical skills, but also fostering creativity, self-expression, and critical thinking. Whether it's drawing or painting, the city’s art instructors emphasize the importance of building a strong foundation in the fundamentals while encouraging students to experiment and explore their unique artistic voices.

In addition to regular classes, many studios, including Joyful Creations Studio, offer workshops, open studio sessions, and personalized instruction for artists who want to delve deeper into specific areas of interest. These opportunities provide students with the chance to receive individualized feedback and mentorship, helping them grow as artists.

Conclusion: A Nurturing Environment for Artistic Growth

New Haven’s art scene is thriving, with countless opportunities for students of all levels to build skills in drawing and painting. From mastering the basics of line and form in drawing to exploring the emotional depth of color in painting, the city's art classes offer a comprehensive and nurturing environment for creative growth.

With its wide range of traditional and contemporary techniques, Joyful Creations Studio and other studios across New Haven provide the perfect setting for artists to hone their craft, build confidence, and express themselves through art. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced artist, these classes open the door to a lifetime of artistic exploration.

5 Important Makeup Brushes Every Makeup Artist Should Carry in Their Kit

As a professional makeup artist, having the right tools is just as important as having the right products. Your makeup brushes are the foundation of a flawless look, and whether you're working on a bride, a model, or creating editorial looks, having the right set of brushes can make all the difference. With so many brushes on the market, it can be overwhelming to know which ones are essential for your kit. Here's a guide to the top 5 makeup brushes that every makeup artist should carry, with expert recommendations from Jawed Habib Academy, Laxmi Nagar Delhi (9266610366).

1. Foundation Brush A foundation brush is an essential tool in any makeup kit. It can be a flat, dense brush or a pointed brush, both of which help apply liquid or cream foundation smoothly for an even and flawless finish. This allows you to blend the foundation evenly into the skin, creating a perfect canvas for the rest of your makeup. It is important to use a brush made of synthetic fibers, as they work better with liquid products and offer better precision.

2. Powder Brush After applying foundation, it is essential to set it with a good setting powder for long-lasting wear. A large fluffy powder brush is ideal for evenly applying powder or bronzer. The soft bristles help the product spread smoothly across the face, without disrupting the base makeup. Opt for a high-quality powder brush with soft bristles to achieve a light and natural look.

3. Blending Eyeshadow Brush A blending brush is crucial for eye makeup. This soft, tapered brush allows for easy blending of color on the crease and lid, creating a professional and diffused look. It can be used with both matte and shimmer shades, making it a versatile tool for any makeup artist. Whether you're going for a soft smoky eye or a bold crease, a blending brush will provide a smooth transition between colors.

4. Angled Brow or Eyeliner Brush An angled eyebrow brush is an essential tool for creating sharp lines with precision. It is perfect for filling in brows with powder or pomade as well as creating precise winged eyeliner with gel or cream products. This brush allows for controlled and neat application, ensuring that brows and eyeliner are always well aligned.

5. Blush/Contour Brush A blush or contour brush is essential for adding definition and warmth to the face. This medium-sized, angled or rounded brush is perfect for precise application of blush, contour, or highlight. It helps sculpt and define the face, giving it dimension and a healthy glow. To achieve the best results, choose a soft but dense brush that can pick up and blend pigmented powders without leaving streaks.
