Symmetry 101 Tutorial


Everyone has a dominant side of their body. It is also true in your face. 


If you look closely you will notice one eye may be smaller than the other or one side of your lips may be be higher. A good photographer knows how to work with lighting to create a symmetric appearance. 

You can work with your makeup to create the same illusion. Here are some tips to make your asymmetrical face into a symmetrical one!

Contouring and Highlighting -

By contouring your cheek bones you can bring your eyes up or down. Contouring higher on your cheeks will shorten the distance between your eyes and cheek bones and vice versa. Beware not to contour too high on your cheek bones. You want a natural look.

Eye Brows -

If one eye is smaller then the other try plucking your eye brows to create the same size brow bone. If you use this tactic you may want to have a professional wax for you. You don't want to make the mistake of over plucking or making a more uneven look.

Eye Shadow -

To be sure you do not over extend your eye shadow. Following your bottom water line up to the end of your eyebrow gives you a great guide. Your eye shadow should bring your eyes up.


Focus on your good features -

Instead of focusing on uneven features highlight your good features! If you have beautiful lips, add color to them. If you have beautiful eyes draw attention to them.


Remember, most people do not notice asymmetrical features. We are our own worst judges!

Ready | Set | Hollywood!

We have been planning our advertising campaign photo shoot for months. We had a dress designed, rented a studio and props, and hired a team of professionals to pull the concept together.

Our idea was to create a Hollywood Red Carpet event. Obviously, not being in Hollywood made it difficult. With hiring the best in the industry, we were able to pull off the project.

The Right Photog!

Photographer Matt Silk created beautiful pictures for us to use for advertising. He has a genius way of working with lighting and angles. His creative vision and concepts separate him from other professionals in the industry. We have worked with Matt on many projects over the past year and he still amazes us with his brilliant work. Please check out his website to view all of his masterpieces www.mattsilk.com.  

Fashion First!

We brought Charlotte Davis and her team a photo from a red carpet event and ask her to recreate a designer dress. Charlotte hand stitched each jewel on the top part of the dress. She made a full feather short/long skirt with amazing detailed touches throughout the dress. Charlotte's use of different fabrics added so much dimension and visual eye candy! Charlotte is our go to person whenever we are in need of amazing costuming and designs. Contact Charlotte at http://www.facebook.com/charlottesbuildabride

Michelangelo of Makeup!

Donovan Cummings is a leading professional in the makeup industry. The way he works with natural bone structure, how he hides imperfections, and highlights beautiful qualities puts him on a whole other level. He is truly an artist. Donovan is able to see something in his clients that most of us aren't able to see. His vision for for his art exceeds other makeup artists.
