Day In The Life on a Music Video Set

The makeup industry is an incredibly exciting, creative and fast paced industry and nothing embodies that like a day on a music video set!
Early call times, pushing creativity with colourful eye catching looks, amazing styling with high end brands, booming music and not to mention the often celeb artist.
I have been lucky enough to work with artists such as Anne Marie, Little Mix, Declan McKenna, Tamera, Ruger and many more.
For any filming work, the skin is super important to have good coverage and no shine. I often use a more full coverage foundation such as Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Flawless Filter or Nars Longwear. This gives the artists more coverage and better longevity while singing/ dancing in the music video.
Powder is also key as we don’t want our Artist to look sweaty/ shiny. For this I use Laura Mercier Translucent Loose Powder as this has better shine control and is also great for baking.
Often in music videos the brief is something colourful, graphic, sparkly and over all eye catching. A staple in the kit for music video days is the BPerfect Cosmetics Carnival palette as it contains such a wide range of colours and shimmers to cover all sort of looks I may need to create. Another trend that is great for music videos is the use of rhinestones around the eyes to catch the lighting.
