Go Bold With Lip Color for Your Boudoir Pictures and Make Your Photos Really Stand Out

December 20th, 2013


If there are two things you want to do when having boudoir photos done, they are to stand out and look glamorous. One of the easiest ways to show off your look and be more glamorous is to go bold with lip color for your boudoir pictures.

Your lip color is the perfect way to enhance your look and in combination with false lashes, smokey eye makeup and a foundation that makes your skin look polished, you can look your best.

For instance, don't be afraid to go with a vivid, rich color like a luscious red or coral. Even pink lips can stand out as long as they are rich in pigment. You don't even have to choose a traditional color but bright red and pinks are a popular choice in boudoir photos. One reason to choose a bold lip color is that photos sometimes don't show your makeup as well when the colors are light. It's the same reason you see newscasters wear a lot of makeup, the lighting can make the look more subtle than intended.

You can also enhance your natural beauty with a bold looking lip color. Those with thinner lips can plump up their look by using moisturizer then outlining the lip and adding a vivid color. Adding lip gloss to the finished look also creates a glamorous look but you don't have to gloss the entire lip; just the center of the top and bottom lip is sufficient in creating a sexy, polished look that is glamorous yet natural.

The point is to make your photo shoot an extension of your natural beauty but more glamorous and sexy than your everyday look. If you want to learn more about how you can be captured in a photo that will last a lifetime, simply contact us.
