Men’s personal care and grooming standards are surging towards new heights. With modern men in search of all new levels of perfection, everyone wants to feel skin confident and look picture perfect.

You might have the stereotypical view that make-up should be reserved for girls, but with new techniques on the market, airbrushing has gained a cult following from men, both celebrities and non-celebs alike.

By gently spraying foundation on your skin through an airbrush, it atomises the liquid into tiny particles giving you a flawless finish. It’s virtually undetectable too (even on HD wedding cameras) meaning no-one will know you have anything on your skin.

If you don’t want any tattoos visible, airbrushing can even be used for a temporary cover up which will be completely waterproof.

Pioneering this trend, is Celebrity Airbrush Makeup Artist, Ganga, who has famously worked her airbrushing techniques on Lehmber Hussainpuri, Apache Indian and Jags Klimax, to name a few.

Here's how Ganga achieves the flawless finish:

1. Prep Your Skin

Your face will be wiped with micellar water to clean any debris in your pores. After this, it’s time to apply a good moisturiser. On your wedding day, your skin won’t be getting the hydration it needs, so this step is vital. Next, a touch of under-eye concealer will be added to counteract any darkness under the eyes, caused by all the late-night partying leading up to your wedding day.

2. AirbrushingIt’s vital to customise the colour of the foundation to match your skin tone. This way, it’ll look as natural and as perfect as possible. Once you have the best match, it’s gently sprayed on the face in fine layers, and is extremely light-weight. There’s hardly any contact with the skin too, and this means it’s great for guys who don’t want to feel out of their comfort zone on their Big Day.

3. Finishing TouchesNow that you’re looking camera-ready, the final step is to apply a natural-looking powder to the face. This will mattify the skin and also reduce any oiliness, which stops the shine from coming through. It also sets the airbrushing in place so it will last the entire day (and night!)
