PROPS AND MAKEUP

In Taylor Swifts music videos her make up is always kept minimal.

Although her skin looks like it is glowing it does not appear to have any heavy make up on. Everything is kept extremely neutral.

Out of everything on her face, the one feature that is slightly more emphasized with the make up is her lips. They look moisturized and are glossy in a neutral pink shade which could connote innocence.

The main singer in Echosmith has very similar makeup to Taylor Swift. Once again, the skin looks immaculate and fresh without looking like there's any apparent make up on.

Both have curly ringlets in their hair and she has dip dye blond hair which adds a sense of unruliness and fits well with the ‘folk indie’ genre.

Once again, the lips are the main feature on the face as they seem full and glossy looking. The colour is always a pink which once again connotes innocence.

We tried to create a similar look for Shannon as seen in this picture.

No face make up such as foundation was used as we wanted to keep the natural theme going. Also, Shannon naturally has good skin and there was no blemishes that needed correcting.

We decided to use a slightly darker pink instead of a nude one as we wanted the camera to pick some colour up on her face.

Shannon also has dip dye hair which we were happy about!

In terms of jewellery we wanted Shannon to be wearing something on her arms, especially during the performance scene as it would look empty if she didn’t. however, like the make up we wanted it to be kept to the bare minimum, and we also didn’t want it to be anything too extravagant. Therefore we chose these simple bracelets which Shannon wore as seen in the bottom picture which went well with her floral dress.
