Creating artificial freckles
What is the ideal and realistic way to create freckles for a shoot? I was thinking about using pencil eye liner or brow liner ??? Feb 01 17 09:28 am Link A lot of people use brow pencils in particular because their texture is a little dryer and stiffer than a regular eyeliner and they give a more subtle pay off of color. You could definitely use both if you wanted! As a naturally freckled person myself, I can say that freckles have many variations in sizes and even depth of color and that's the key to making them look realistic. I have seen makeup artists actually use two pencils at a time, held or taped together, to lay an over all base of freckles on a wide area before adding in the individual detailed ones. The more random and less evenly spaced the placement is, the more natural they look. Feb 01 17 11:18 am Link Thanks, this is helpful !!! In the past, I just added more in photoshop ......
