Hello everyone, welcome to my channel.
For this video I am going to share with you how do I shoot my makeup photos by myself.
Sometimes your makeup photo
is worse than the real without
good lighting equipment or camera equipment,
I have learned lessons from a lot of experience to make this video for you.
In fact, I do not professional (D)SLR camera,
but I tried a lot of different digital cameras, as well as mobile phones
and lighting equipment
which gave me tips need to learn. This video is more suitable for beginners
.It may not be right for you if you need very professional advice.
Today I will give you some practical examples
to show the effects of photos under different cameras and different lighting conditions.
I will put all the products' information in the description box.
So let's start
When comes to camera,(D)SLR camera is definitely more professional,
but in fact a lot of beauty bloggers start from mobile phone camera
or other digital cameras,
so if you do not want to invest in expensive cameras,
I can recommend the cameras I have been using.
ow in my hands I have Meitu mobile,
Meitu M4
and iPhone 7 plus,
in fact, iPhone camera is very powerful,
so you see a lot of good photos from social medias are taken with iPhone .
And I have Casio ZR5000 which is shooting today's video.
People are more familar with iPhone camera
as we can see good iPhone photos from social medias,
some are as good as the photos taken with DSLR.
The DIY videos I made recently were shoot by iPhone 7 plus.
It can focus really fast, quite stable,
with good clarity.
Overall speaking, iPhone 7plus camera is the best one
compare with other mobile phones' camers I personally tried. But this is overall speaking.
Now I am going to talk about Meitu M4, my one is not the latest.
The latest one has both 21MP front and rear cameras
My M4 only has two 13 MP cameras.
But I think it is really specialized for beautified portraits,
its portrait shooting function is very strong.
Photos from my social medias , like on Instagram ,
all the eye makeup close-up photos,
including the whole facial makeup photos were all shoot by this phone
and all my clear Youtube thumbnail/cover photos were shoot by this camera.
I have got many people asked me what camera I was using, so this is the one.
Before I have to ask some friends to bring the Meitu mobile phone to me,
but now you can buy it from Amazon.
It's now very convenient.
If you do not ask a particularly high standard for a camera, just to shoot the portrait,
then it is really a good choice,
but if you need a powerful mobile phone,
then it should be iPhone,
but the M4 I bought is now maybe even less than one third of the price for iPhone 7 plus.
if someone can help you to take photos,
especially someone can find your best angle, tell you to how to adjust emotions
and eyes contact , it's easier.
But my photos were taken by myself. So I do need to have a very good front camera
then I can see my own expression, adjust my own face position, angle, lighting, which is quite convenient.
There is one important point is the beauty touch up function,
because all the makeup photos, in fact, need touch up later, such as
the noises caused by insufficient lighting, or some small flaws on the skin,
after touch up the whole makeover will look more tidy, including colour contrast, need to be adjusted too.
My photos taken by Meitu had already been well touched up from the phone itself,
I only needed to do some small adjustment with Photoshop.
So what about take photos with iPhone
but download Meitu app(the app and the phone belong to the same company called Meitu) to touch up the photos, or use beautycam app to
take photos with iPhone?
Let's see some comparisons.
Because I was trying to get the same result by using different cameras
but actually it's hard.
First let's look at the photo taken by Meitu.
It was quite dark in the room
and there is only one small window. It is winter now
with shorter daylight, dark late afternoon now.
But Meitu made an auto adjustment,
with good details of my makeover,
like the eyes makeup part.
I had applied coloured eyeshadow
and I can see clear colours, the brightness of shiny shimmers and good colour contrast.
Then let's we look at the photo from iPhone's
front camera ,cannot compare it .
Obviously it is
much less detailed,
,eye makeup is not clear
And then I then use the rear camera,with the Beautycam,
you can see, although the beauty camera can remove the noise,
but still the details of eye makeup were gone,
and then I use the rear camera without Beautycam
quite good,
the details are good,
but later I need to touch up the photo,
because it doesn't look like a makeup photo.
Flaws on skin and coulour contrast also need to be adjusted.
The skin needs further touch up.
One thing I need to mention here, when I just bought the Meitu mobile phone,
the system didnot work stably,
maybe only my mobile phone was like that,
or maybe it was caused by long-distance delivery,
but After several system updates,
everything got fine later.
Now let's look at the digital camera which was shooting for today's video,Casio ZR5000,
it can do good and clear filming,
but the focus is a bit slow,
slower than iPhone.
Compared with Meitu and iPhone 7 plus, the function of this digital camera is more powerful,
because it has a lot of modes can choose from,
exposure level can be adjusted.
It also has its own beauty functions
including the skin of tone adjustment and smooth skin functions,which can be adjusted,
so its function is more versatile.
It has a little flip screen on top,
i can roughly see myself,
but it is not as big and clear as the screen of Meitu.
so Meitu mobile phone can show facial features, including a lot details
easy to tell if the focus alright,
but like Casio ZR5000, we can not tell if the focus is 100% right
for the screen is small.
There is one thing, ZR5000's wide angle function is really good, so girls said
they look slimmer on the photos.
In that light again,
dark room with only a window of late afternoon light,
I used Casio ZR5000, smooth skin level 2 , which was close to the beautify level I chose for Meitu.
I didnt select brightness or exposure.
Let's see the photo, very good auto adjustment,
brightness is very good,
just when we magnify the photo, the colour contrast and saturation of eye makeup are not as good as Meitu's photo.
So for ZR5000, the comprehensive functions are better,
just the details of makeup are not as good as Meitu's photo.
When shoot some objects with improper lighting condition (two soft boxes with black background),with iPhone 7 plus,
in fact, sometimes there will be excessive exposure of the objects,
the details of the object disappeared.
So when I do DIY video or photos,
I need to use ZR5000 to shoot the specific details of the object to make it more clear and professional.
Then let's move on to lighting.
Lighting is particularly important,
because wrong lighting condition may destroy your entire photo or the whole facial makeup.
To put it in an easy way, just add light where you want to look bright without shadow.
Soft box is very common,
which give soft light
in dark place.
If you want simple but efficient light for makeup shoot, then use ring light.
It creates a bright circle in your eyes
like in my eyes now
which is not that beautiful in my opinion,
but the main function is to avoid shadows on face.
if you do your makeup in front of ring light, your makeup will be more intense and well defined.
Because when the shadows on your face are removed,
then you can see your face clearly anf find out anything not that perfect.
Also light will absorb some colour intensity
so you will automatically add more intensity of the makeup
with better colour saturation.
now you can see I turned off the ring light,the room is very dark light,
only with a small window on top. You can see my facial flaws,
for example, the eye bags under my eyes look really bad,
there is some shadow under my false lashes,
my face look a bit messy.
Look at this raised part, created shadows below itself.
As you can see, I don't look good, the whole face looks messy.
Now I open the ring light, can you see the difference?
For example, the eye bags place, in fact, I don't have obvious bags under my eyes,
but when the light is not good , even the slightly raised part
turns lighter, and gets shadow below the itself. It can make people look older
and makeup look messy.
Now you can see my face has much less flaws.
Sometimes I will add a reflector below,
the reflector is also very important,
because it can reflect the light on my face to clean the unwanted shadow.
let's see
my chin area is a little dark,
, then I put the reflector below,
you can see, my chin area brightens up
with less shadow on my face.
There is a special holder to hold the reflector
so we can have hands free.
That's all for today's content,
all of that is based on my own experience,
if you have any better suggestions, please leave a message.
I wish my advice could be a bit helpful if you want to shoot some makeup photos,
thank you for watching, i will see you next time. Bye
