Makeup: Contents Page Photoshoot

For my contents page I did my subjects makeup to give them the look i was striving for. This was to give a glamorous effect but also give message to the readers that these two girls are successful women in the soul industry.

As both of these models are young, white and female. I wanted to achieve the image where young women viewing the magazine can use these inspirational individuals as role models and the pinnacle of success; hence the professional makeup, glamorous hairstyles and stylish attire.

I also wanted them to look the same in terms of makeup, hair and outfit to resemble equality and peace within the soul industry. This brings the magazine a glamorous feel but also keeps a neutral level between the demographic and the magazine. ( The magazine is un intimidating.)

In this process, the makeup was essential because it needed to continue on to aspire the female proportion of the demographic in terms of glamour and confidence. This may attract the male section of the demographic as it will infer that these women are just as successful as the male on the contents page and the music industry is achievable for both men and women.
