I did a bright gold and red eyeshadow today. It's so bright and vibrant I've a few clients ask for the look today. But when I take pictures, my camera in my iPhone 5s washes out the colours and make it look REALLY dull and unfinished. It's really annoying because I has to reboot my iPhone today so all my pics have been deleted. Can anyone help me choose a great cants I can use day and night and get the great pics??

I'm going to add the pic of my look today and you guys can see how washed out it is 😫😫😫😫😩😩😩😩

Thanks ladies. I know a lot of people photoshop but I don't wanna be one of those people that do so. It's so annoying when trying to show off my skills. Even my gradient lip colour doesn't show. It was so amazing in person but just a waste on camera. I was in the apple store earlier rebooting my phone and notice that they sell cameras that fit on your iPhone. It would cost me £90 but it's literally just a lease. Do you think that's worth buying?

I would invest in a camera or get a good lighting system. the blogger Karen walrond (hope I spelt that right) does good iphoneography. which is totally a thing, you should look it up. maybe you can find tips or tutorials to help you get better photos using your iPhone.

Hate photoshop and bad lighting? Then invest in nice DSLR cam. Nikons are the best. For cheaper price, use Canon. Cellphones have limited lighting and doesn't capture good pics compared to a real cam. Just my opinion

Hibz I'm having the same issues, I get the lighting right but my makeup looks less than finished and then annoys the frick out of me because it looks so great in person (well I think it looks great)
I have an iPhone 5s too. I also have a DSLR which took photos beautifully but it has stopped working and I don't have the money to fix it quite yet. So frustrating..
