About Beauty & Product Campaigns
For beauty campaigns, the makeup must be as precise as the photography. I apply a technical 'skin first' approach, using specialized hydration and HD-compatible foundations that remain completely undetectable under studio flash and 4K camera settings. This ensures the model and the featured products look polished on camera, requiring minimal retouching in post-production.
Whether it is a product launch for a brand like Lovechild by Masaba or a hair trend campaign for Schwarzkopf, my role is to create a visual identity that aligns with the artistic brief.
I work in close collaboration with creative directors, photographers, and hairstylists to ensure the makeup complements the lighting and color palette of the shoot. My process involves intensive skin prep to achieve a 'no-makeup' finish, followed by the strategic placement of product, focusing on textures that catch light correctly without looking heavy.
I specialize in several key areas of commercial production:
- Commercial Beauty Makeup: Clean, radiant looks designed for high-resolution cameras where natural skin texture matters most.
- Editorial Styling: Adapting to specific trends, from avant-garde to minimalism, while ensuring the makeup withstands long shoot hours under hot lights.
- Men’s Grooming: Providing undetectable, matte-finish correction that controls oil and shine, keeping the focus sharp on the subject.
By coordinating early with the styling team, I help minimize friction on set, allowing us to hit the right aesthetic efficiently. My experience with major fashion brands means I understand the pace of a professional set and the importance of delivering consistent results from the first shot to the last.
