"So that's how it is. You're really amazing to be able to perform in front of a big leader." Su Nan gasped, covered her lips in pretended surprise, and followed Chen Youshan's words to praise her.
Who doesn't have a little vanity? Su Nan can understand this mentality very well. She is also happy to say a few nice words to make the little girl happy.
As expected, the three girls smiled unconsciously when they heard Su Nan's flattery, and Chen Youshan even had two deep dimples on her cheeks.
"We haven't been chosen yet." Chen Youshan said modestly, and then continued: "Well, my aunt said that the three of us have solid basic skills and are good-looking, so there is a high chance that we will be chosen."
"Her aunt is the deputy director of our cultural troupe." Jiang Tingchun took a sip of hot water and added.
Su Nan's eyes flashed, as if covered with a layer of crystal light, her eyelashes blinked twice, and she raised her eyebrows and said: "See, I was right, you can definitely show yourselves in front of the big leader."
Su Nan continued to say a few pleasant words of praise, which made the few people smile from ear to ear.
Whether in the present or in the future, cameras are very sensitive to makeup, so the thicker the makeup on camera, the better. However, "thick" here does not mean the richer the color or the redder the lipstick.
Instead, on the premise of keeping the color combination refreshing and clean, play to your strengths and avoid your weaknesses, and apply makeup in small amounts and multiple times on the parts you want to deepen, enlarge, shrink, and brighten, so as to achieve the best and most satisfactory effect.
After applying the base makeup, start applying the other parts of the face.
Chen Youshan has a typical round face and clustered facial features. Simply put, her face is round and her facial features are squeezed together, making her face look big and cramped.
Therefore, in the eyebrow area, we need to increase the distance between the eyebrows and eyes, raise the eyebrows, and deepen the layering of the eyebrow color from light to dark.
Use a smaller brush to contour, so it will be easier to control the strength and the contouring will be more delicate, without being too heavy-handed, making the whole makeup look dirty.
Use a lighter contouring color to start from the triangle area of the eye socket and move to the bridge of the nose, slowly sweeping inward to form a "V" shape.
Leave some white space in the middle area from the root of the nose to the tip of the nose, and use the remaining powder to lightly blend it. Do not draw a straight line to the end, as that will look unnatural.
Draw a "C" on both sides of the nose to shrink the nose and make the nose appear smaller and more upright.
Apply a small amount of contouring color on the philtrum to enhance the three-dimensionality of the middle part of the face. Starting from the temples on both sides of the cheeks, apply a small amount of contouring color multiple times. The range should not exceed the area around the upper lip. This can make the face look smaller from the front and highlight the jawline.
Because Chen Youshan's hairline is a little high, some contouring should be done around the hairline.
Change to a highlighter brush, partially brighten the tip of the nose and the upper and lower parts of the nose bridge, then use a brightening color to cover the area near the tear trough to improve the sunken nose base, and then use the brush to sweep from the brow bone to the bottom of the eye to visually lift the eyes, which will make the eyes look more lively.
Be sure to use matte highlights. The light will hit your face, which will make the photo look more natural and soft, and your apple muscles will appear more prominent.
Use an eyeshadow brush to dip light brown into the area around the eyes to simply fill in a large area, then use dark brown to deepen the roots of the eyelashes to create a sense of depth, and use the same color to draw the bags under the eyes. Finally, use pearlescent eyeshadow to apply to the eyelids and eye corners to brighten them.
Use a black gel eyeliner to lengthen the back of the eye, only drawing the back half and slightly upward.
This kind of eye makeup will make the overall photo effect very coordinated, and the eyes will appear deep and bright.
Compared with matte lipstick, it is better to choose mirror lip glaze or lip gloss when taking photos, because their inherent watery feeling will make the lips fuller, more tender and more lively.
The edges of the mouth must be clear and delicate, and concealer should be used to cover up some imperfections to make the lip shape more symmetrical.
For blush, use a blush color that is in the same color family as your lipstick, and use a blush brush to draw a long oval blush shape under the eyes. This will not only enhance your complexion, but also make your face look narrower and smaller visually.
A good ID photo should give people the impression of being energetic, naturally age-reducing, dignified and elegant at first glance, so the symmetry of the makeup is very high. If the two sides are different, it will easily give people the visual effect of a crooked mouth and crooked eyes.
Su Nan untied Chen Youshan's braids and used a rubber band to tie her into a fluffy bun, which would make her head look smaller, thus optimizing her face shape and making her look younger.
"alright."
As soon as she finished speaking, Chen Youshan opened her eyes, looked at herself in the mirror, couldn't help but exclaimed, then stood up and put her face in front of the mirror, her lips slightly opened.
"You put on much better makeup than our art troupe's makeup artist." Chen Youshan turned to Su Nan and praised her, then waved to Gao Man and Jiang Tingchun: "Look, am I right?"
Gao Man took Chen Youshan's hand and looked carefully from side to side. She couldn't tell where she had put on makeup, so she blurted out, "Wow, she's so beautiful. She looks the same with or without makeup."
Seeing that everyone was looking at her, Gao Man quickly waved her hands and explained anxiously: "I'm not saying that your makeup is bad, I mean that it's too good, there's no trace of makeup at all, it's just very natural and beautiful."
Su Nan pursed her lips and smiled. She knew Gao Man meant no harm, so she whispered, "Thank you for your recognition."
"Comrade Chen, go take the photo first. I'll hurry up and help another comrade with her makeup so that we don't waste your time. It's not easy for the art troupe to take a vacation. You can go home early after the photo shoot."
Chen Youshan blinked her big black eyes, then nodded, responded, and then skipped towards the photo location. It was obvious that she was very satisfied with the makeup that Su Nan had put on for her this time.
Su Nan looked at such a lively and lovely girl and felt happy from the bottom of her heart. She didn't even feel tired when she was putting makeup on the other two people. She even had the leisure to chat with them while putting on makeup.
From chatting with them, Su Nan learned that they were full-time actors belonging to the art troupe of the local army. They had been training basic skills and rehearsing programs in the art troupe. They could sing, dance, and perform opera.
The art troupe was given a holiday this time to allow them to relax and prepare for the performance on the Lantern Festival after the Spring Festival.
This performance was different from previous ones. In addition to performances for the military and district leaders, there were also senior leaders who came from Beijing and Shanghai for inspection.
I heard that there was a big director who couldn't find the right people to star in the movie, so he came here specially to select roles for the movie.
This is a great opportunity for the actors in the art troupe. If they are selected, won’t they be able to appear on the big screen and be seen by audiences across the country?
It not only brings honor to myself, but also brings honor to the art troupe.
Therefore, not only the art troupe itself attaches great importance to this performance, but the actors themselves also take it very seriously.
