“wait, why are you buying lingerie? isn’t yuta leaving in like 3 days?” your friend asks you as you both decided to shop around for a set of lingerie to prepare for a film that your boyfriend was oh so excited to make.

as you both walked through the last couple of aisles, you find a gorgeous black and pink set. you already knew yuta would go insane over it, already imagining the different positions and scenarios he’d play out for you.

lately, yuta’s been into cnc play. something that he was so unsure and insecure about; but when the topic came up, he brought it up to you. you were always open to trying new things with yuta, as long as you both knew where you stood, and that there was a line.

“girl come look, oh my god…” you hold up the piece for you friend to see, watching the way her eyes shift to the corset area.

“good luck walking normally for the next week. he’s gonna fuck your brains out!” she says, almost too loud for the crowd.

you pick out your size and check out to head home. you throw your bags in the car, finally getting a chance to text your man.

my yuta 🤍: hey baby, i’m on my way home. i’m gonna stop at target really fast

my yuta 🤍: are you home?

y/n: hi baby!!!!!!!!! i’m not home yet

y/n: i’m almost there tho

my yuta 🤍: okay gimme like 20 minutes bb

y/n: okay :3

you pull into your driveway, grabbing your things and rushing inside to hurry into your new set. you quickly showered and did your hair, spraying it to hold the wet hair look. you rubbed on body oil followed by a body shimmer, yuta’s favorite thing you do. you sprayed perfume on your ankles, wrists and neck, wherever yuta would be closest to you.

you also put on a touch of makeup, as yuta loved when you wore makeup, just so he can watch it run down your face when he fucks your throat.

after 20 minutes of getting yourself ready for your man, you unlock the front door, running up the stairs for yuta to see you waiting on your knees in the middle of the bed. you calmed your breathing, nervousness clouding your entire body when you hear the front door slowly open.

the front door was never unlocked unless something was going on— and this had yuta’s blood rushing, knowing you were home with the door open already for him.

“baby? i’m home, why’s the door unlocked?” he yells for you, getting no answer— expecting him to walk upstairs looking for you. you hear him putting some bags down, listening to the jingling of keys and shoes being thrown around.

“my love, i’m not playing this game.” he sighs. you hear him finally walking up the stairs, blood rushing to your ovaries and making your head spin in excitement. he opens your bedroom door, taking in the view before him. you’re on your knees in the middle of the silk covered king bed, with a pink maid lingerie set on, your wet hair almost coming down to your breasts, shifting with every deep breath you take.

you hurriedly finish setting up the camera on the chair across from bed, making sure your hair and outfit looks perfect— if you’re posting this on twitter, it has to be astounding.

you rush to get back into position, hearing yuta’s footsteps approaching. he nears the room, leaving the door completely open. his gaze darkens, curiosity at the scene before him is making his cock hard. he can only wonder what’ll happen next.

“fuckin’ hell. this what you were doing? look at you, pretty girl. is this new?” he walks up to you, reaching for the straps on your fabric, admiring the way your clean skin is perfectly suited by the set you’ve had on.

“all for you, baby. wanted it to be a surprise when you got home. i remember you mentioned you wanted to try cnc, so i got excited.” you breathily laugh. yuta’s fingers run up your neck and down to the valley of your breasts.

“yeah? good memory, baby. what do you say i rip this off you and pound your pretty cunt, hm?” his long hair bounces off his shoulders when he stands up and undresses himself. slides off his white top, his black trousers following suite.

he doesn’t notice the camera at first, but when he catches you looking at the phone on the chair every 20 seconds to make sure it hasn’t fell, his cock (impossibly) gets harder and harder.

“yuta, aren’t you tired from work?” you pretend to push him away from you, but yuta doesn’t budge. he leans over your smaller figure, planting a kiss on your forehead.

the smell of his car is what’s following his body, the new car scent making your head spin. the cologne he wears makes compliment to his aesthetic, edgy and mysterious— with notes of tobacco and ocean breeze. you catch a tiny bit of vanilla as he moves away from you. the mix of fragrances makes your mind fuzzy.

“never too tired to fuck you,” he continues demandingly, cupping your jaw to get a better view of your nervous look. his shoulders are tense and you notice the sweat beginning to form around his chest. “no, yuta. i don’t want to,”

“don’t fight me baby. you’re only making this worse for yourself,” his large hands press your back down onto the mattress, spreading your thighs to kiss around your heat. his teeth magically unbutton the body suit you struggled to clasp together. amazed, you moan out when you feel his teeth graze your cunt through your thin lace panties. he pushes your thighs apart as he kisses and licks you through the thin material.

letting go of your legs, he rips your panties off and licks a long stripe from the top to the bottom of your clit. he sucks at the sensitive area, whimpering and gasping at the taste of you.

your pussy clenches and convulses around his tongue while your thighs attempt to shut around his long haired head. his brown hair is damp with sweat, using his free hand to brush his hair back. he bites at your clit, making your legs twitch. “yuta, stop— please,” you whimper with watery eyes while your orgasm threatens to approach.

he only groans in response, sucking harder and flicking his tongue faster up and down your entire cunt. your orgasm approaches; you release all over the area where a beard would sit.

his stronger hands make impact with your pussy, your body jolting in response. “stop fucking moving. i’m gonna use you how i see fit, am i clear, y/n?”

“but i-“

“but i don’t care. don’t make me tie you down.”

his dark eyes lock into yours, making your heart jump in fear and excitement for what’s about to come. your legs force themselves open while yuta strokes himself slightly and lines his cock up with your soaked, sore cunt. in one thrust, he’s all the way in, giving yourself no time to adjust. he places his hand on your mouth to block out all sound from you. “yeah, keep that fuckin’ mouth shut. only thing you’re good for is this pussy.”

he lands another sharp slap on your cunt, making you cry out. your back arches upward and you could’ve swore you just saw your brain from how hard your eyes rolled back. “gonna toss out your birth control and fill you up every. fucking. day.” with every word, he pulls out completely, then thrusts harder back into you. your body shivers and your toes curl at the contact. with your back arched up, he takes the opportunity to remove his hand from your mouth and undo your entire set, stripping you completely naked.

after he’s satisfied with the scene before him, he slaps your right tit, then your left, then the right. the muscle turns red and you wince out in pain. he leans down to suck and lick at the area, earning a gasp from you.

“don’t cum in me, please!” you beg. you absolutely need him to breed you— it’s a staple in your’s and yuta’s sex life. it wasn’t sex if he didn’t full you up by the end of it.

“shut the fuck up. the last time i checked, sluts like you don’t care about getting pregnant, hm? they just sleep around and wait for someone to empty their cum into their loose pussies, yeah? that what you are?”

“n-no.” your eyebrows furrow in anger at the words he throws at you. the expression on your face doesn’t match the expression your pussy displays. you’re throbbing and swallowing him in, unknowingly cumming around him for the -nteenth time.

“yeah, you are. say it with me.” his tone softens as he talks you through the most vulgar words, waiting for you to say the words.

“i’ll call someone if you don’t let me go.”

“who are you gonna call, darling? the cops? i’ll make them watch.” he slaps the left side of your face, leaving a red handprint on your glossy skin.

“open your legs. don’t make me repeat myself,” you force your shaky legs open while yuta continues his assault on your sore pussy. the lewd moans he lets out makes your head fuzzy. “so fucking tight. even after i fucked you for hours,”

his thrusts slow, then they continue at a rough and fast pace. his fingers are hooked into the right side of your mouth like a dental clamp. your teeth are covered in your own arousal.

he repositions the both of you to where you’re both facing the camera. he cups your jaw, making you watch him fuck you through the camera. you connected your phone to the tv, so you’re both seen on the screen.

“say hi to your fans, bitch. we’re on live.”

somehow, yuta managed to switch to a livestream, the comments being flooded with a sweaty face emoji and thirsty comments. he pounds into you while you’re both whining and whimpering, holding your hair back to push you deeper onto his length.

“n-no, yuta, let me go!”

you’re cut off by a sharp slap on your ass. “one more chance. say hi.”

“h- fuck, i can’t!”

you watch the views go up dramatically, while yuta smiles manically.

the views only increase, making your heart clench at nervousness.

“say hi to jaehyun for me.”

“i can’t—“ another slap to your right ass cheek, already forming a bruise. he pulls you off of him, watching yours and his cum drip down his cock and your thighs. “h-hi jaehyun,”

jaehyun: hello pretty girl

“there you go. wasn’t so hard was it?” yuta leans over to grab the camera and angle it at your face. it’s at selfie level as you stare at your own arousal on your face and the mascara on your cheeks. your lips are puffy and red with strands of hair on your face.

you look like yuta’s bitch.

Everyday Makeup Routine 💄🪞💋✨

Primer: Apply a lightweight, mattifying primer to create a smooth base for your makeup and control excess oil.

Foundation or Tinted Moisturizer: Even out your skin tone with a light layer of foundation or a tinted moisturizer that matches your skin shade. (You don't always need foundation. I only wear foundation if I am going for a full glam look. Other wise, I use concealer and tinted moisturizer on days my skin is not cooperating.)

Concealer: Use a creamy concealer to cover any blemishes, redness, or under-eye circles.

Setting Powder: Gently dust a translucent setting powder to lock in your base and reduce shine.

Blush: Add a natural flush to your cheeks with a soft blush in a shade that complements your skin tone.

Eyebrows: Fill in and shape your eyebrows using a brow pencil or powder for a polished look.

Eyeshadow: Apply neutral eyeshadow shades for a subtle enhancement of your eyelids.

Eyeliner: A thin line of brown or black eyeliner along the upper lash line can define your eyes.

Mascara: Coat your lashes with mascara to open up your eyes and give them a more awake appearance.

Lip Color: Choose a lip color that suits your style, whether it's a nude shade, a soft pink, or a subtle berry.

Additional Steps for a Polished Makeup Look:

Contour and Highlight: Use a contour powder to define your cheekbones, jawline, and nose. Then, apply a subtle highlighter to the high points of your face for a radiant glow.

Setting Spray: Finish your makeup by spritzing a setting spray to lock everything in place and give your skin a fresh, dewy finish.

Lip Liner: To enhance the shape of your lips and prevent lipstick from feathering, use a lip liner that matches your chosen lip color.

Lipstick or Lip Gloss: Apply your preferred lip product, whether it's a classic lipstick for a bold look or a lip gloss for a more natural shine.

Finishing Touch: Take a moment to blend everything together and ensure there are no harsh lines or uneven patches.

Product Suggestions:

Primer: "Mattifying Pore Minimizer" - Helps create a smooth canvas and control shine.

Foundation or Tinted Moisturizer: "Natural Glow Tinted Moisturizer" - Provides light coverage and a healthy radiance.

Concealer: "Creamy Conceal & Correct" - Covers imperfections while remaining blendable.

[thedeviltohisangel]

omg maybe some soft angst bcs evelyn overworks herself and callum is so worried

For A Fortnight There We Were:

A LITTLE ONE SHOT SINCE YOU ALL SEEM FERAL FOR THEM AND I LOVE IT AND ENCOURAGE IT

tw: mentions of drug use/addiction

"Hi everyone, I'm Evelyn Shaw, and I'm so happy to finally be introducing you to the new Dior Addict Lip Glow Oil." She held the tube to her lips and pressed a cheeky kiss to the side. "It's infused with cherry oil which nourishes my lips after long days on set and even longer nights on the romantic streets of Paris."

"Cut! Let's reset and run again." Evelyn yawned as the camera turned off then looked up as her makeup artist approached with an eye pencil.

"Do I look as shitty as I feel?" Now in London, she had been in Paris this morning, finishing fittings for fashion week, The Hague three days ago for an engagement on behalf of the United Nations Women's Conference and she was due back on set for House of the Dragon by the end of the week.

"No. You look glossy and juicy," Nicole teased.

"Let me get some spray on the fly aways." Ev closed her eyes as her hair stylist spritzed a toothbrush and brushed it over her hair.

"Have we heard anything from Callum yet?" She was headed straight to a meet and greet at the Dior store in Mayfair after this before she had just enough time to change for the launch dinner she was hosting as the newly minted Global Ambassador for Dior Beauty.

"Mark was on the phone finalizing your filming schedule for next week so it didn't conflict with your brother's graduation so I'll flag him when he gets back," Nicole offered.

She hadn't seen Callum in almost a week. There were unanswered texts and calls and a red circle on her FaceTime app.

Evelyn felt awful about it but her first trip for work since the pandemic was proving to have more of a strain on her relationship than she thought it would. She was used to using work to distract herself from her ex-husband and saying yes to everything so she didn't have to be at home. Now, with Callum, that was all she wanted to do. And she knew it was perfectly in her control to change it but she couldn't find the right way to convince her brain this man was different.

"Alright, Evelyn, let's do more sultry than cute this time." She shook the fog from her mind and stared down the camera.

"Hi everyone, I'm Evelyn Shaw, and I'm going to let you on my secret for endlessly kissable lips..."

----

She kept her sunglasses on as she stepped out of the car and let the screams and camera clicks wash over her. She blew kisses and waved as her security ushered her into the store and the door closed behind her with a sigh. Evelyn made an extra effort to shake the hand of all the staff that were in the store and hugged the handful of Dior executives that she had gotten to know during the process of launching the lip oil.

"Ev, let's get some candids of you looking at the new collection over here." Bleary eyed, she slowly rifled through the racks as her stylist took a few photos.

"Hey, Mark?" she called for her assistant as everyone made final preparations before opening the doors. "Do we have any..." she brushed her finger over the tip of her nose, asking for a hit.

"I do, but you were going to stop now that you got out of that relationship, right?"

"Yeah but I'm about to fall over and just need to get through tonight and I'll be fine." They had done this song and dance with her and cocaine before. The habit stopped and started in fits. "A pinky nail. That's all I'm asking for."

"Not here, Ev. Go to the dressing room and I'll bring it back." She kissed his cheek and headed to the back, reapplying her lipstick and fluffing her hair before pacing around the room for a few laps. Finally, there was a knock at the door.

"Fucking finally, Mark, I'm-" She opened the door and it wasn't Mark. "Cal."

"It's been a minute, Ev. You pick up on old habits while you were gone?" He wasn't sure if she had read his message or listened to his voicemails since she'd left. They had gotten increasingly desperate so he hoped she hadn't. But if she was using again, it was no wonder she wasn't responsive.

"No." Her lip quivered. "I'm just exhausted, Callum." Hiding away with him wasn't an option anymore. The safety of his bed wasn't an option anymore.

"There's other ways for us to fix that. Ways that don't involve you pushing me away and letting those vultures back into your life." She fell into a chair and dropped her head into her hands.

"Everyone wants a piece of me and I don't have enough to go around." There were legal battles over dividing assets. Magazines and podcasts that spent their time speculating on the true reason behind her failed marriage and spending hours and pages devoted to convincing someone, anyone, that Callum was a controlling manipulator who had tricked her into cheating with him for status. Photographers who lined every street she walked and yelled obscenities and tried to snag a shard of her broken soul. "You're my drug, Callum. You make the voices stop when I'm with you. But I can't always be with you."

"But that's why we learn how we communicate best. We call or we text or send each other dumb photos to make it feel like we are always with each other." He sat down on the floor in front of her and put her hands on his cheeks. "I'm right here, Ev. And I'm not going anywhere. I'm not him."

"I'm sorry I didn't call. I wanted to. I just didn't know what to say." For all the benefits quarantining together had offered for their relationship, it had also introduced certain complexities. Introduced reliance and dependencies and they hadn't learned how to be apart. Let alone how to be successful at it. "I'm still getting used to things being normal. To having you as part of my normal."

"I'm sorry I didn't come find you sooner."

"Promise you'll always find me? Even when I'm just lost in my own head?" He kissed her forehead.

"Especially then, Evvie."

that being said I need oily face makeup recs

I’ve been using the elf power grip and I’m almost out and it does a good job of keeping my makeup on but it doesn’t really help with oil control so I was looking into the one size beauty secure the sweat one but ppl say it’s finicky like you have to put it on a very specific way or it pills and I don’t have the time/patience bro 😭 I already use a mattifying foundation and powder but I still get shiny after like two hours so I’m like okay let me change up some other stuff to help

I use the elf stay all day setting spray in the blue bottle bc lots of ppl have said the blue bottle formula is more mattifying and works for oily skin and yeah it’s good it does the job I use it between layers to melt my makeup together and at the end but still get some separation and shine so any suggestions?? 🎤

heyyy

i'm so boredddd

time for random questions

what's your🫵 skincare routine? 🧖‍♀️

what products do you🫵 use?🧼🧴

(might go around asking these questions at random avatar writers hehe)

🫵🫵🫵

hiiii my 🫵 anon hehe. how are you love?

ooohhh i love sharing products! i’m gonna preface this by saying i have very oily, acne prone skin so 😀 and i’m gonna say my skincare n makeup routine bc why not!

1. to cleanse in the am, i use garnier micellar water on a cotton round (i’m always running late/never have time to do a full face wash lol)

2. then, i like to use panoxyl’s oil control moisturizer (has spf 30 which is great, i kill two birds with one stone using a combined moisturizer/spf). if i know i’m going to be in the sun for longer than 30 min, i also apply the skinscience sunscreen (it’s very glowy tho so i’m not positive it’s great for my oily skin lol)

3. i recently purchased the elf power grip primer (the new pink one with niacinamide) and it’s nice! so i’ll use some of that and press it in, don’t rub since it has that tackiness feel to it and you don’t want the product to pill

4. then i’ll either spot conceal if i’m in a big rush w/ the dior forever skin correct, or if i have time, apply charlotte tilbury’s beautiful skin foundation (it’s pretty lightweight which is nice, especially in the summer)

5. for brows, i love the nyx eyebrow pencil. it’s a staple for me, i’ve been using it for years now. for contour, i also recently picked up the elf halo glow contour beauty wand, and it’s a very good dupe for the charlotte tilbury contour wand. dare i say better?

6. for mascara, honestly any drugstore mascara is good. i also like the little mini “travel” sized ones from sephora, since you’re supposed to replace mascara every month anyway. might as well spend $13 on the mini instead of $28 for the full size one since it’s getting tossed at the end of the month regardless!

7. for powder, maybelline fit me (the loose one) is great, and givenchy makes a good loose powder too but it’s $$. setting spray i like urban decay’s all nighter, but i don’t use setting spray every day.

8. at night, i always double cleanse. it is essential. i use an oil cleanser from the dermatology group i belong to, it’s pretty nice. it removes all the mineral spf that’s sitting on top of the skin, as well as makeup. then for cleanser, i like cerave’s foaming facial cleanser, or their acne control cleanser. both are nice.

9. then i use the advanced snail 96 mucin power essence after cleansing, slimy yes but it makes your skin look dewy and glowy. and after that i apply a moisturizer & retinol from the derm group i belong to :) and then eye cream & lash serum!

wowee that’s a lot hahaha sorry for info dumping i just love talking abt products, this was such a fun ask <3

Hi everyone. This is a very old post, but it's blown up again recently. I actually haven't worked for Kiehl's for almost a year now, but the knowledge I learned about skincare products has stayed with me, and I want to come in again to follow up with the very common comments and FAQs this post has gotten:

1. "What is the oil controlling moisturizer that mattifies?" The Kiehl's Oil Eliminator 24-hour Moisturizer in the men's section. I will warn you that it won't stand up to Sahara-level dryness, but there is also a toner in the same line if you need the same results with a more hardcore moisturizer to put on top of it. The toner can also be used as a setting spray if you like wearing makeup.

2. "Don't buy all these products just use the men's 5-in-1's!" I can not tell you hard enough how much you Should Not Use Multiple-in-1's. The basic chemistry of it just does not work. You can't make shampoo also be conditioner, or also be body wash, or also be face wash. They have completely different chemical makeups for a reason and if you try to add others you create a weird concoction of sludge that does barely anything. It might wash and moisturize your hair a LITTLE BIT but nowhere near the amount you need it to to have any real effect. And there is a real reason why body and fash wash are separate, it's not capitalism. The skin on your body is a lot thicker and more oily than the comparatively thin and dry skin on your face, do not use body wash on your face. And shampoo needs to be a LOT more stripping to clean hair, which is basically a pile of really thin dead keratin strands that trap dust and grime like its their job. Keratin can stand up to that much, your skin can't. Don't buy multiples.

3. "Don't buy from beauty stores, just get the cheap shit at walmart" once again, I can not stress enough that you Should Not Do That if you don't have a working knowledge of how ingredients work in skincare products. The reason those products are cheap is often because they use really cheap and often irritating, acne-causing, and environmentally disgusting binding ingredients over the responsibly-sourced and gentle ones. You can absolutely find cheaper products in department stores that will do the same thing if not more for you than what you get in Sephora, but don't play with fire if you don't know WHY it's so cheap. Even things as simple as squalane could cost 60 dollars somewhere and 12 in a walmart, and it's because cheap squalane is sourced from hunted shark fins, while the expensive stuff is from olives. You can already see the difference in why you shouldn't just assume cheaper is the same and I haven't even mentioned skin effects.

4. "Scents/parabens/sulfates are always bad" not necessarily. Not all added scents or parabens or sulfates are made equally. If you have really oil-capturing hair and work a grimey job, you're gonna need a shampoo with sulfates in it or you wont get it all off, for example. It really depends on what type it is and what your lifestyle and individual needs are. Don't villainize a whole group of ingredients just because they aren't good for a generalized group of people.

Also yes, anti-aging is a scam. BUT a lot of "anti-aging" products are good for other things. Retinol serums are a genuine godsend for people with persistent acne that is otherwise resistant to treatment.

Being the only guy who works in a beauty store is fucking hilarious sometimes. Im the only one who can sell our shitty beard shampoo and a not insignificant amount of our customers think im untrustworthy. According to my coworkers i use every mens product we have so they can get dudes to buy a shaving cream. Trying to explain to people that theres no difference between "men's" and "women's" products is like talking to a brick wall. Ive had multiple women get angry with me for sampling them out one of our "men's" moisturizers when they specifically said they wanted a mattifying one to control oil and that's the best one we have for those two things. I still think about the guy who came in asking if we had "masks for men." I contemplate ending it all every time someone returns a completely unused product that they absolutely refuse to try just because it either says or doesnt say "for men" on it. 90% of the time its the perfect product for them. I had a lady who was willing to buy a worse product for her needs that was more expensive just so it wouldnt say it was for men. Are you ever tired? Are you ever exhausted? These are the same kinds of people who say that im the one whos obsessed with gendering everything because im trans.

Master the Bobbi Brown Makeup Tutorial in 5 Minutes

If you're a busy woman who loves looking fabulous on the go, mastering a quick makeup routine is key.

Inspired by Bobbi Brown's expert tips, here’s how you can achieve a flawless look in just five minutes.

Bobbi Brown, renowned for her effortless approach to makeup, shows us that achieving a polished look doesn’t have to be time-consuming. Whether you’re headed to a meeting or a brunch date, these tips will keep you looking fresh and radiant throughout the day.

Perfecting Your Base

Creating a flawless base sets the tone for your entire makeup routine. Follow these steps:

Choose the Right Foundation: Opt for a lightweight foundation or tinted moisturizer that matches your skin tone perfectly. Blend it seamlessly using your fingers or a brush for a natural finish. Start from the center of your face and blend outward for an even application.

Conceal and Correct: Use a concealer to touch up any redness around the nose or dark circles under your eyes. A quick dab and blend will leave you looking well-rested and ready to take on the day. Choose a concealer that is one shade lighter than your foundation for a brightening effect.

Enhancing Your Eyes

Your eyes are the focal point of your face. Here’s how to enhance them in no time:

Define Your Brows: Quickly fill in your brows using a pencil that matches your natural brow color. Brush through with a spoolie to soften and shape. Focus on filling in sparse areas and creating a defined arch that complements your face shape.

Lash Curling and Mascara: Curl your lashes before applying a coat of black mascara. This opens up your eyes instantly, giving you a wide-awake look even on the busiest of mornings. Start at the base of your lashes and wiggle the mascara wand upwards for length and volume.

Adding Color and Glow

A touch of color can elevate your look from everyday to extraordinary:

Blush for Radiance: Apply a pink-toned blush to the apples of your cheeks. A quick smile will help you find the perfect placement for a natural flush of color. Blend the blush upwards towards your temples for a youthful glow.

Lips and Final Touches: Complete your look with a swipe of lip gloss or a subtle lipstick shade. This adds a hint of shine and completes your five-minute makeup transformation. Choose a lip color that enhances your natural lip tone for a fresh and polished finish.

Tips for Long-Lasting Makeup

Make your makeup last throughout the day with these expert tips:

Set with Powder: Dust a translucent powder over your T-zone to control shine and set your foundation and concealer. Use a fluffy brush to lightly press the powder into your skin without disturbing your makeup.

Blotting Papers: Keep blotting papers handy to touch up any excess oil throughout the day without disturbing your makeup. Gently press the blotting paper onto oily areas like your forehead, nose, and chin for a matte finish.

Setting Spray: Finish with a spritz of setting spray to lock in your makeup and ensure it stays fresh from morning till night. Hold the setting spray 8-10 inches away from your face and mist evenly to set your makeup in place.

Quick Fixes for Makeup Mistakes

Don’t panic if you make a makeup mishap. Here’s how to fix common issues:

Smudged Mascara or Eyeliner: Use a cotton swab dipped in makeup remover to gently clean up any smudges without ruining your eye makeup. Start from the outer corner and gently swipe inwards to remove excess product.

Uneven Blush or Foundation: Blend out any harsh lines with a clean makeup sponge or brush. Patience and a light touch are key to achieving a seamless finish. Use dabbing motions to blend and soften edges for a flawless complexion.

What Makes HD Bridal Makeup Different from Regular Makeup?

When it comes to bridal makeup, the goal is to achieve a flawless, long-lasting look that enhances natural beauty, lasts throughout the day, and holds up under the scrutiny of wedding photography. While regular makeup can achieve a beautiful look, HD Bridal Makeup Artist Pune takes things to the next level. But what exactly makes HD makeup different from regular makeup? Let’s dive into the key differences, focusing on texture, finish, and longevity.

1. Texture: Smooth, Seamless, and Airbrushed

The most notable difference between HD bridal makeup and regular makeup is in the texture. HD makeup is specifically designed to provide a smooth, airbrushed finish that looks almost flawless in high-definition photography. Traditional makeup, on the other hand, can sometimes appear cakey or too heavy on the skin, especially under the bright lights of a wedding venue or in close-up photos.

HD makeup utilizes lightweight foundations and skin-perfecting products that blur imperfections, creating a seamless finish. These products are formulated to smooth out fine lines, reduce the appearance of pores, and provide a natural skin-like effect. The high-definition formula makes the makeup look as if it's melting into the skin rather than sitting on top of it.

Pro Tip: For brides, an HD foundation is a must because it gives a natural finish while still offering the coverage needed for a perfect look. Regular foundation may not have the same level of blending power, which can result in visible lines or patches under bright lights.

2. Finish: Dewy, Glowy, or Matte Perfection

Another key difference is in the finish of the makeup. HD makeup products are specifically designed to offer a refined, polished finish that looks flawless under any lighting—whether it’s the natural light of a sunny outdoor wedding or the dramatic lighting at a reception.

HD Makeup: The finish is typically more versatile. Artists can create a dewy, luminous look that highlights the skin’s natural radiance or opt for a matte finish that controls oil and creates a soft-focus effect. The key is that the finish appears smooth and professional, never dull or heavy.

Regular Makeup: Traditional makeup may give a more matte or powdery finish, especially with older products. Although it’s effective for everyday wear, it doesn’t always provide the subtle glow that HD makeup is known for. It may also appear thicker or more textured on the skin.

For brides aiming for a flawless, radiant look, HD bridal makeup is often the better choice because it allows for customization of the finish to suit the skin type and wedding theme.

3. Longevity: Staying Power for the Whole Day

One of the most important factors for brides is longevity—how well the makeup holds up throughout a long day, from the ceremony to the reception. Weddings are emotional, and you’ll be smiling, laughing, and possibly shedding a few happy tears. The last thing you want is for your makeup to fade, settle into fine lines, or smudge during the day.

HD Makeup: The high-definition formulas used in bridal makeup are designed for long-lasting wear, ensuring that your makeup stays intact from the early morning hours of hair and makeup prep until the evening reception. HD foundations, concealers, and setting sprays are built to resist transfer, control oil, and maintain a fresh look for hours.

Regular Makeup: While regular makeup can certainly last through the day, it’s not always designed for extended wear or extreme conditions. Regular makeup may need more frequent touch-ups or reapplication, especially in warm, humid environments or during long photo sessions.

Pro Tip: To make your bridal makeup last longer, make sure to use a setting spray or translucent powder after your makeup application. This will keep everything in place without looking too matte or heavy.

4. Camera-Ready: Picture-Perfect Finish

One of the key reasons why brides opt for HD bridal makeup is its ability to look flawless in high-definition photography. Regular makeup may appear fine in person, but when captured in high-definition photos or videos, it can sometimes show up uneven or cakey.

HD Makeup: This makeup is designed to look beautiful not only in person but also under the camera lens. The texture and finish are designed to hold up under high-definition cameras, making it ideal for weddings, where photos and videos are treasured for a lifetime. HD makeup also provides an airbrushed effect, which helps minimize the appearance of blemishes, skin imperfections, or fine lines.

Regular Makeup: Traditional makeup is generally not optimized for photography, especially in the digital age, where every detail can be captured. It may look great in real life but may not always have the same polished appearance when photographed under bright lights or high-definition settings.

5. Customizable to Skin Tone and Type

Both HD bridal makeup and regular makeup can be tailored to different skin tones and types, but HD makeup offers more flexibility and precision in achieving that perfect match.

HD Makeup: It’s more adaptable and blends seamlessly into the skin, no matter the skin type or tone. Whether your skin is dry, oily, or combination, HD products provide a balanced finish that accommodates various skin concerns.

Regular Makeup: Traditional makeup might require more effort to find the right formula and might not always provide the same level of customization. It may not blend as smoothly into different skin types, and some products may accentuate dry patches or fine lines.

6. Ingredients and Skin Benefits

Many HD makeup products are formulated with skincare benefits in mind. These products often contain nourishing ingredients like vitamins and antioxidants that are designed to be gentle on the skin and improve the overall texture and appearance over time.

HD Makeup: Many HD formulas are enriched with moisturizing agents, soothing extracts, and even SPF, making them a healthier option for long-wear makeup.

Regular Makeup: Regular makeup products are typically not as focused on skin care. While they may offer coverage and longevity, they might not provide the same level of hydration or care as HD products.

Conclusion

While both HD bridal makeup and regular makeup aim to enhance beauty, the difference lies in the level of perfection they provide, particularly for brides. HD bridal makeup offers superior texture, a flawless finish, exceptional longevity, and is designed specifically for high-definition photography, making it the perfect choice for brides who want to look picture-perfect from every angle. Regular makeup, while effective for everyday wear, may not always provide the same results when it comes to weddings or special occasions.

For brides in Pune looking for the best results on their big day, choosing an HD bridal makeup artist ensures a look that’s not only glamorous but long-lasting, seamless, and ready for any camera.
