please help me-makeup for school yearbook pics?
So my school pictures are in about a week and I just did a "test" of the makeup I have to see if it will look good for the pictures. It's for my yearbook, and I'm a senior so it's a pretty big deal. I have light skin, light brown hair, dark brown eyes, and my skin is oily and acne prone.
So i really have a few questions:
1. If my liquid foundation has SPF in it, will it make my skin look really light, even if I have a powder on top if it with no SPF in it (cuz i heard that SPF is bad for photos)?
2. If i think my makeup looks too heavy/ dark for my skin tone, is it OK to ignore that and assume it will be lighter in the pictures? My skin looks a little more "tanned" with the makeup on than how I normally look.
3. Do I need a contour color and highlight? Is foundation/ powder and blush ok?
4. the eyeshadow I'm using is sparkly- (neutral gold look) I just was wondering if the sparkles in it will look weird in the picture. ?
5. Any tips on how to get rid of a stubborn pimple in less than two weeks? I have a pimple that won't go away and I really want it gone by pictures!
Also, the pictures are black and white in the yearbook- I'm not sure if that changes anything...
oh, and I forgot to say salisilic acid doesn't work on me, my skin acts like it's water. I've been using Mario Badecu drying lotion, prescription erithromicin, and clearasil spot treatments and this pimple refuses to leave! also, I tried tea tree oil and nothing happened.

1. Stay away from SPF especially if you have oily skin.
2. If the SPF foundation you have is the only good foundation you have, then that's okay. For pictures I suggest little makeup. If you want to look more tanned, then apply a darker tone of powder. If you don't have any that's alright because the photo's are black and white and the darker your skin look the darker your face will look (your face will be black in the final picture as apposed to white.)
3. Well, conceal your zits, pimples, acne/blemishes that you have on that date. Apply a small amount of powder foundation that matches you're skin tone then blush over top. (Not to much) Then, mascara and eyeliner if you have them. Or false lashes for longer looking eyelashes in the pic.
4. I think I would stay away from sparkly-ness just because the little glitter will just show up as random dots on your eyes, plus it's more possible that it will smudge on your face and turn out black
5. Well start by washing it with your best acne wash EVERY NIGHT AND MORNING this will no matter what give you best results. If you don't have acne wash then just use face wash. Do not pop the pimple because although it works "for some people" it may not work for all. I also highly suggest using a clay face as it soaks up oil and will get rid of dirt in your pores.
If the photos are black and white then your blemishes wont show up to much, but still take that advise. It works 80 % of the time. The only thing that would make a b/w picture look bad is if you have oily foundation and dark powder because the lighting may only show up on half your face, which in the end would wake where ever the light is, white and where ever the dark is, black, which just means you would have half white half black face.
Hope this helped!

1. You should always wear spf, it is not bad for photos only if it is actually sunscreen/sunblock.
2. It WILL look lighter in the picture, I just took my senior picture and got them back and I had a ton of makeup on but you need it cause I looked a lot lighter than I actually did in person.
3. Contouring your face always helps with your appearance. I use a bronzer for shadows and light powder or a blush for highlights.
4. If you mean it looks shimmery, then that is totally ok! But, if it is really sparkly that might look to costumey.
5. You need to dry it out! Put a spot treatment with salicylic acid on it. Try this it works really well: http://www.google.com/products/catalog?q=salicylic...
But, if it is still there just use a thick concealer and powder.

nicely, commencing off with your common visual attraction... you like to seem organic. seem in the replicate a pair days until now and choose your maximum organic smile. you like people to keep in mind YOU, good? As for hair and makeup? positioned on your hair as you many times could, perhaps upload a scarf or a barette? For makeup, circulate organic, yet on your face makeup circulate somewhat darker, perhaps including a bronzer on suited. purely because of the fact the lighting fixtures they use wash out people's complexions. As on your outfits... i could positioned on white, then. Or a gray shade, so as that it exhibits up gray on the black and white image. do no longer overlook, smile of course and be your self. once you're prevalent on your "guffawing smile" then do this. don't be scared to coach your tooth. Oh! And! the superb "smile" for a yearbook image is to grin such as you have a secret!
