Hi! I have a photo shoot tomorrow and was needing a bit of help on makeup. I'm not going to be using the MUA's they have since I would have to pay them and decided to have makeup done before I go. I will be changing into different outfits for three themes: Red, Flowers, and Passive Aggressive. I will be wearing a red leather jacket and have black for the rest of the outfit and it will be an edgy look. The next outfit is a long pink and white lace dress and I'll have a flower crown on. The third one is going to be an elegant type of lace bodycon black/nude dress and heels. I need just one makeup look so I can just do touch ups in between each session. Can you all give me a type of makeup look I can use for all three of these? Thank you! Will be lots of help! :)

I don't see bodycon and heels as passive aggressive so I wouldn't be able to help in that regard, but I can offer suggestions for the other two.
I'm somewhat what some people might call 'edgy; I wouldn't, but some certainly do. Edgy can be tricky because if you try too hard, it doesn't come off as edgy. I truly believe that Edgy stems from the inside much like punk or metal..grunge; it's an outer reflection of inner-self. You have to feel it, in my view, to reflect it through a camera lens. Even professional models don't often pull it off in my personal view...so that will probably be your toughest look. Which edgy are you going for? That would be helpful in giving any suggestions. Are you doing Amy Winehouse edgy, Siouxsie Sioux, 90's Drew Barrymore/Winona Ryder, Sia/Lady Gaga kind of edgy...Melanie Martinez, Lourde...there's many forms of edgy and their make up varies so that would be good to know before recommending anything.
As for the crown and flowers, what comes to mind, from what you've posted, is a Bohemian vibe. I'd do this look first since it involves the least amount of cosmetics and you won't removing more dramatic/edgy looks that don't alter so easily. I image that would be minimal, soft...romantic colors that are taken from nature. Lightly sun-kissed cheeks with a hint of gold/broze/copper..earth tones....lips leaning to the pink/nude shades...whispy lashes and soft brows..
If you decide you want to line the eyes ...add a little intensity, I'd smudge it out to soften it...keep the lips very natural with the flower look. I'll link examples of 2 different looks for the flowers. Again, I'd need more info on what you angle of edge you are.
Very natural...simple.

Hope those help.

I think you've given me an idea of what to do. Thanks! The thing about starting with the look that uses the least amount of makeup really helped! At first I was just thinking of a look that could work for all of them but I didn't think about applying more after each look :)
