glitter & shimmer
is glitter & shimmer a no no in the model world? i showed up at a hair photo shoot & they asked me to take it off. Sep 14 05 12:35 am Link I can't speak from a model's point of view yet because I'm just now starting to launch my modeling career-however, as a professional spokesmodel different people want different things. If it's your own shoot-you can pretty much do whatever you want. However, whenever you are representing someone's company or product and it is there shoot or show then each has there own guidelines as to do's and don'ts. I recommend upon booking find out everything involved from clothing to makeup/hair/nails because sometimes nails and nail color can be a big issue as well.

You're a blank palette; it's not up to you what the shot is supposed to look like. Sep 14 05 06:22 am Link I agree with all th above comments but want to add: Glimmer, sparkles, anything that can catch the light is a huge problem, with the flash. Thats why I always tell my models not to use anything shimmery. I spend way too much time photoshopping it out. Sep 14 05 06:36 am Link Shimmer is awesome for stage. It makes you catch the light when you move. However, shimmer is not so awesome for photos. It usually just makes you look greasy/shiny in a bad way.

The hair or the eye catching shiny glimmery shimmery stuff? Sep 14 05 02:39 pm Link thanks to all those who has left an answer. the hair shoot was the first i ever done, the note they setn said to come with some makeup on, they just didnt say what kind, but they were nice about it, they didnt yell at me or anything. i try to buy a few no shimmer eye shadows just in case i need to do my own & they dont want shimmer. i dunno lol, im like a bug atrated (sorry they need a spell check button here) to light when it comes to shimmer & glittery things. i just had shimmery eye shadow on. and i didnt know there was going to be a MUA there, but i know now to be sure & ask, whenever i get to do another shoot that is.
