Hi there,

I'm not planning on airbrush make up as such but would still love to know how best to create a natural, flawless look - while wearing enough make up to look good in photos of course!

Thanks!

I'm concerned about SPF in foundation. I keep being told to make sure my foundation, primer and concealer don't have SPF and light reflectors (such as touche eclat does) as they'll 'flash' in the picture and make my already pale skin even whiter.

I have a light skin tone and would like to look a little less pale for my wedding but really don't want to end up looking orange. How can I get a very subtle glow?

Hi everyone,

Thanks so much for joining us for today's make-up master class webchat with Mariam Jensen.

Mariam will be with us until 2pm so please do keep your questions coming in.

Enjoy!

Webmaster

Hi Everyone! Welcome and keep your questions coming! : )

@shoesdowntheaisle Some airbrush makeups can be hand applied with a brush, they give a fantastic finish and are very durable and long wearing. Airbrush does give the best result, however when you can't try Airbase Foundation applied with their brush for a truly flawless finish. Lots of my overseas brides that have lessons with me love this product! http://www.airbasemakeup.com/airbase-foundation

@MrsHenaughan2B Lots of products do reflect white, if you are doing your own makeup I would suggest having a friend snap shots of your makeup look to see how it is looking. Titanium Dioxide in many products creates this white effect and sadly it is used in so many products. If you are using a makeup artist for your wedding or makeup lesson, they should also be able to recommend products. In regards to sunblock, I love Keihls Ultra Facial Moisturizer SPF 15, it's light, perfect under makeup, and doesn't give off a while cast, nor have a sticky texture.

Hi Mariam,

I'm having my make-up done by a professional when I get married (thank goodness!) but I've got quite bad skin and I'm prone to breakouts. I'm sure my make-up will look great at the start of the day but I'm worried it'll wear off. do you have any tips I can easily do myself throughout the day for keeping the odd spot covered?

Thanks

Hi Mariam, I blush really easily and usually look really red faced in photos on nights out. Can you recommend anything that would stop this?
Thanks!
