Beauty shot photography is based on the idea that everything in the photo must look beautiful, attractive, and have an aura. Face painting is a face painting process as a medium to be painted. Along with the times, face painting has experienced a creative modification in the use of paint, namely glow in the dark painting which can light up or refract its color in the dark. Glow in the dark face painting is to paint using special paint media that cannot cause irritation and damage to the skin. Besides using special paints for human skin, the type of paint used is also required to contain a mixture of phosphor substances to emit light in the dark. Glow in the dark has a similar concept to solar power because the power source is light. It aims to get the glow in the dark effect on face painting, by using low key lighting techniques.
