Bikini shots
Hi, im a photographer, but i was wondering if there is something to do to have a nice shinny skin for Bikini shots. I don't want it to be super shinny like oil, but just a little something more... meaby Moisture Cream ?? need help girl thx Mar 01 06 01:36 am Link Pam! Mar 01 06 02:19 am Link Yeah I have used Pam as well Mar 01 06 02:22 am Link PAM Mar 01 06 02:27 am Link well I'm interested too but, forgive me , I'm italian and I don't know what PAM is. Will someone explain it to me please? Thanks a lot! Mar 01 06 02:33 am Link you mean Pam Cooking Spray ??? Mar 01 06 02:38 am Link YES THE COOKING SPRAY...I USE IT QUITE A BIT... SPRAYS AS A LITE MIST, AND NOT AS HEAVY AS BABY OIL Mar 01 06 02:52 am Link Thx a lot, yours help was very precious ! Mar 01 06 02:54 am Link LMAO, Where were you guys last week when I pulled the Pam out in the studio and my MUA looked at me like I was crazy? The model flipped out as well. LOL It's an old trick we use in bodybuilding, works great under the lights. Just donnt use the garlic flavored one! :-) Mar 01 06 04:36 am Link I have just done some swimwear shots and I used Dry Baby Oil Spray. Its not as shiney as the oil or gel and it smells gorgeous! Its a Johnson and Johnson one. Mar 01 06 07:14 am Link Sanctuary Body Moisture Spray - smells divine! Nuxe dry body oil - also smells gorgeous and you can buy it with gold flecks as well Mar 01 06 07:22 am Link Also you can use Quench lotion by oil Olay...it gives a nice sheen not too shine but a nice glow...another thread talked about pam cooking spray...and man does it work good...but it gives a nice gloss and not too messy or oily like baby oil can do... Mar 01 06 07:26 am Link PAM is great!! You'll ready for a shoot and for cooking LOL Mar 01 06 08:21 am Link If you're shooting outdoors, I wouldn't recommend PAM though. More than likely, the model would literallly cook. Mar 01 06 08:27 am Link claveart wrote: Pam mi sa che e' come burro ma in spray... Mar 01 06 10:46 am Link But folks, the real question is does the Pam keep the model from sticking to the skillet? 'Cause we all know there's nothing worse than stuck up models. I mean stuck-on, sorry. Mar 01 06 01:01 pm Link you can use a baby oil jell but i agree pam is the best only it might make you hungy as it smells like butter, ohh and i wouldnt use it out side either it will attract bugs, and wild life ..Mandy Mar 01 06 01:57 pm Link Depends... PAM (oil spray for cooking) can make the skin turn green if the model uses a tanning product. When I do stage fitness competitions, this happens and you think you are standing next to Hulk's descendants. A better choice can be Mango Butter from The Body Shop:(http://www.epinions.com/The_Body_Shop_M … y_~reviews) Or, simply use Almond Oil (You can put in a spray bottle). Also, my good friend Mohamed Mohsen makes and sells the fantastic "Dream Tan #1" out of Hollywood, CA (www.dreamtan.com). This is a stage tanner with bronzer in it. This product IS out of this world and makes the skin glow and tanned....darkness can be adjusted as necessary. I am sponsored by him and have used this product at competitions for the past 3 years, and I ALWAYS get complimented on my skin tone. It is also very nice for photos. Any of these can be ordered through the net. I hope this was helpful. Best, M-onika "I AM - the two most powerful words in the world, for whatever we put after them becomes our reality."

If used sparingly it won't be too shiny, it gives a deep luster and glow, the scent will knock you out. You may have to order it from the islands...these little bottles from Tahiti are the real thing: http://www.monoitiki.pf/ Mar 05 06 01:49 pm Link I use a mix of Revlon skin lights, lotion and some foundation to even out any uneven tones in the models skin, messy but works great! Mar 06 06 11:46 am Link i had to reply again.....PAM PAM PAM, it works like gangbusters...check out my profile with pic of the boxer.... we used pam the first time this past weekend and it work...it's not greasy either, it apllied evenly and gave a nice shine...before i applied it i had the model apply lotion just as a precaution to protect her skin.. Less mess shine in a great spray can Pam is the way... Mar 06 06 11:52 am Link Yeah I second the Revlon Skin Lights. Mix it with some body oil and it gives the lovliest sheen. Mar 06 06 11:54 am Link i use that nivea lotion with the gold flecks in it. Mar 06 06 01:30 pm Link |
