Id like to have a big selection of make up for this.
Lipsticks and eyeshadows in particular really.
I would like to collect ALOT of very CHEAP makeup!
It doesnt have to last long at all. I can photoshop some if i have to, to make them look brighter etc..
A selection of colours would be good.
Links from places like amazon or ebay, or any other good site. (thats reliable!) Would be good help!
Perhaps a kit with a selection of colours in or something would be good?!
Thanks alot :D
xoxCheap make up for fashion shoot?
Look at target or other department stores for discounts on them.
ELF cosmetics is cheap... but it isn't the best makeup.

If you want a variety of colors and just need it to last for a little while, then hit up all your local Dollar Stores, NOT General Dollar, that is going to be amount of dollars for each product. You can really find some good stuff and even name brands for a buck.
go to eyeslipsface.com, or type in elf.com and it will redirect you. They have everything! from eye-makeup to blush, to lipstick and lipgloss, and every single item is one dollar!!

I say you should get bold matte colours that really stand out on the eyes. Like matte red or blue. You can get relatively cheap bold makeup at costume stores.
maxx factor its availbe at all drugstores ( MAC Cosmetics Makes MAXX FACTOR) ITS really good for photoshoots i used to dance and i ride hroses now so i need alot of makeup for shows and this really works
try walgreens
and sally beauty supply
or even ulta sometimes has sales on their HUGE makeup kits
just go to like a junk shop and get some really cheap stuff.. like eyeshadow will be exactly the same as expensive stuff..
may be try out mind it cheap make-up ,some times, spoil the skin
TRY THESE: they're very cheap and you get lots of bold colors...make sure you use a eyeshadow base or the color will not come out as bright as it looks (try mac's paint pots or their canvas paints for that)

GOOD LUCK ON YOUR PHOTOSHOOT!!!
The HIP eyeshadows are actually very bold, but it suck they're like...8 bucks a thingie. MAC is also an amazingly matte and intense brand - but is 14 bucks for their cheaper shadows. You can get both brand severely discounts at http://discount.makeup.com/ (still pricey).
Honestly, though, I've picked up cream eyeliners/shadows, especially around halloween and valentine's day, from Dollar Stores (it's not too good for your skin, and smears pretty easily, but if you remove it promptly within 2 hours, you won't get acne from it). The colours are just as intense as the namebrand, and while they don't last as long, are still great for photoshoots.
If that doesn't make you happy, then try picking up one of those 20 dollar makeup sets from Wal*Mart or a grocery store. The colours are, once again, bold and easily layered and smudged about, but they do make your skin dry out, so make sure you moisturise your models' faces first!
I have a very extensive makeup train case - it weighs about 24 pounds not including the case. I got everything in it from discount stores, ebay, and from friends' kits when they didn't like the colour. I've gotten mostly everything else as gifts or swiped from my mom's kits :P. The only thing I would say you CANNOT skimp on is foundation, since it has to match you perfectly. I special order mine. Besides that, the only thing I paid more than 15 bucks for was my brushes set - it's a 25 piece set in a leather case, and it was TOTALLY worth it.
Okay, so, ebay, troll your local grocery stores and Wal*Mart (target, too - they have nicer stuff for a few bucks more), discount.makeup.com, and even sephora.com if your budget can handle it. Don't pinch when it comes to brushes or foundation - tell your models to bring their own makeup, so you don't have to stock their skintones.
In the end, remember that even the best models have their images photo edited, and it's a test to your photography, so don't let one models' rogue blemish ruin your imagery! Editing isn't bad; just use it to enhance.
Oh, and use elmer's glue for the sequins or glitter - just use a q-tip to apply :)
