With Television in High Definition providing audiences with superior image resolution and clearer, higher quality pictures, actors and news anchors are left with the challenge of maintaining an immaculate appearance under the 6x magnification of high definition cameras.
The flawless picture resolution calls for flawless make-up coverage, and like technology, the cosmetology industry has advanced by marketing makeup products especially designed for HDTV filming. Used together or separately, these products will work to conceal wrinkles, blemishes, acne and skin discoloration while on camera, giving a clean and natural look to those in the spotlight.

High Definition Mascara
Every woman knows that ‘spider lashes’ are hardly attractive in person, let alone on the TV screen under intense magnification. blu_ray Mascara, by CARGO, was created to give women long, natural looking lashes in HD filming. blu_ray Mascara uses a thick black base that gives lashes a defined and sleek look. The comb-like wand separates and lengthens lashes, adding volume and eliminating clumps. The combination of the base formula and application brush create natural looking lashes even under translucent lighting.
High Definition Moisturizer
Moisturizing prior to applying foundation nourishes and primes skin giving it a natural glow, while evening out skin tones. HD Microperfecting Primer, by Make Up For Ever, corrects uneven skin tones and allows for longer lasting makeup coverage. The lightweight, oil-free moisturizer comes in six different shades and one transparent shade for all skin tones.
High Definition Foundation and Concealer
These HD foundations use unique photochromatic pigments that provide a flawless look under any lighting scenario. Smashbox High Definition Healthy FX Foundation with SPF 15 creates a clean, flawless look for HD film and television. The oil-free, liquid foundation is infused with skin firming and anti-aging ingredients, as well as a unique cell energizer, called Ribose, that works to improve the appearance of skin. The unique patented formula moisturizes and firms skin throughout the day, while the SPF protects against sun damage and free radicals.
Capture Totale Foundation, by Dior, has received rave reviews among women. The foundation formula works similarly to Smashbox by using anti-aging ingredients such as alpha longoza and centuline to give skin a healthy complexion. Dior’s revolutionary formula uses optical correctors and HD liquid crystal pigments to create a serum that captures youthful radiance. According to Dior, Capture Totale treats all signs of aging, boosts collagen, nourishes and re-plumps skin. Dior credits the multi-toned pigments that add to the success of the product. Instead of using the four-part pigment pallet of red, yellow, white and black, Capture Totale uses a variety of multi-toned pigments for a very natural effect.
Blue_ray Concealer, by CARGO, has combined a concealer and wrinkle-eliminator in one. According to CARGO, the concealer contains light-diffusing pigments as well as Vilsilox, a cosmetic alternative to BOTOX that smoothes and conceals wrinkles. The pen-like application brush allows for quick, on the spot treatments. Blue_ray concealer is also waterproof and weather resistant.
High Definition Powder
The universal finishing touch after applying foundation is the application of translucent powder. Along with the HD Microperfecting Primer, Make Up For Ever has created HD Microfinish Powder. This translucent mineral powder is talc-free, and formulated with 100% silica that will not dry out skin. It evens out complexions and sets foundation for a fresh and natural look, lessening the appearance of imperfections. Its light texture allows for numerous applications without a caked-on effect. Translucent powder matches any skin tone and can be worn over foundation or alone.
High Definition Lip Wear
CARGO’s blu_ray also markets lip gloss that provides a natural look in high definition filming. blu_ray’s lip gloss gives natural, subtle shine, rather than the thick shimmers and textures other lip sticks can cause. The lip gloss contains a mint formula that creates a plumping effect that makes lips look full and natural.
Whether you are in the spotlight, or simply taking pictures, these products will give you a flawless look for all filming projects.
