If fluorescent lights were not enough, those come up with high definition technology so instead of just seeing a hundred pores, we can see a million pores and specks on our faces. I can understand why a director would like to show an action film or sports action in “high-def.” The details are unbelievable to look at and it is one less step up to being blu-ray or 3-D. The clarity and the movement are so flawless.

 

A reporter or actor, male or female, cannot just go in front of the camera without putting on makeup. The shine on their faces or even bald heads should not blind us when we are watching them. I guess they also have to be pleasant to look at as they deliver the bad news or their lines. Let’s be honest now, as an audience, we critique their images like there is no tomorrow. We are as harsh and strong as the studio lighting that is focused on them. I guess it’s the fact they cannot hear us thru the screen or they’re celebrities or it’s our own insecurities. But I digress.

 

The digital cameras and video cameras now are fast and clear. As a bride, you may be a little worried if you are aware of high definition, or just being on the spot light. Even the term high definition is intimidating.

 

How do you deal with it? Just make it easy on yourself and consult with a makeup artist that has extensive experience applying makeup for print ads or commercials. Ask questions. Ask them to do a makeup trial on you and have somebody photograph or video tape you with a high quality digital camera. If the artist is good, he or she will know how to match your skin tone and type should use air brush or not, use a mattifier to minimize pores, use mineral powder or pressed foundation just to name a few choices. The application of the lipstick is also important. However, one of the “must do’s” is to use a concealer. Using a concealer brush instead of your hands or a sponge is much better because you have better control on the coverage. The makeup artist has the tools and the supplies to tackle the job to make you beautiful and most importantly, make it last for hours of crying, dancing, and hugging.

 

Why go thru all this? Because you want to look flawless on your wedding day. However, remember that flawless doesn’t mean perfection. Sometimes those flaws are what make you beautiful and perfect. The lines that appear when you smile, that mole, the freckles, those little things about you that add to why your fiancé fell in love with you. So do yourself a favor and don’t hide everything. HD should capture your tears, the flow of your gown, that first kiss as husband and wife, and the real you.
