CHECK OUT MY BRIDES TATTOO ON HER BACK

SHE ASKED ME IF THERE WAS ANY WAY WE CAN HIDE THIS FOR HER WEDDING DAY, BUT, WITHOUT IT RUBBING OFF. IF YOU DIDN’T KNOW THIS ALREADY, YES THERE ARE TONS OF TATTOO COVER MAKEUP OUT THERE, HOWEVER, ONE RUB UP AGAINST IT AND IT’S COMING OFF!!! BIG NO NO WHWN IT COMES TO WEDDING DAY, A VERY EXPENSIVE WEDDING DRESS, OR EVEN… RAIN! SO, THATS WHERE THE BEAUTY OF WATER PROOF AIRBRUSH MAKEUP COMES IN AND OF COURSE… SKILL!

SO WHAT I DID HERE AS YOU CAN SEE IS I STARTED TO FIRST AIRBRUSH WITH RED. THE COLOR RED BLOCKS OUT BLACK, DARK BLUE AND VIBRANT COLORS. YOU WANT TO FIRST CREATE A COLOR BLOCK THEN START TO WORK YOUR WAY UP WITH COLORS THAT RESEMBLE THE SKIN TONE. IF YOU ONLY HAVE MAKEUP, THAT IS FINE, USE A RED LIP LINER, OR LIPSTICK, THEN WORK YOUR WAY UP WITH CONCEALERS… THE TRICK IS

TO POWDER IN BETWEEN EACH COAT WITH TRANSLUCENT POWDER TO SET THE COLOR YOU DID BEFORE. IT TAKES TIME AND PATIENCE!!!

MY BRIDE WAS SO HAPPY WITH THE RESULT. TATTOO GONE, MISSION ACCOMPLISHED! THIS IS ONE OF THE MANY PARTS OF MY JOB I LOVE.

IN MY WORK PILE THAT LOOKS A MESS, THERE IS ALWAYS SOMETHING IN IT THAT CREATES SOME MAJIC.
