Cornish Maine Boudoir Studio // Team Glam for the Win (Even If You’re a Mascara-and-Go Girl Like Me)

Alright, let’s just get this out there—I’m totally a mascara-and-go kind of girl. Most days, I’m slapping on some SPF, maybe a brow gel if I’m feeling fancy, and calling it good. I’m a farm-livin’, punk rock kind of woman, not exactly out here contouring my cheekbones for a grocery run.

But when it comes to boudoir sessions? Oh honey, I am all in for Team Glam.

Hear me out—boudoir isn’t everyday life. It’s not Tuesday errands or chasing dogs around the yard. It’s an experience. It’s stepping into your power, your sensuality, and letting that inner badass take the wheel. And honestly? A little extra makeup just photographs better.

Here’s the thing—natural makeup in real life? Gorgeous. But under studio lights or my moody, shadowy setups? It can disappear faster than your motivation on leg day. The camera loves contrast. It loves definition. It loves a little drama. (Okay, controlled drama—we’re not going full Vegas showgirl… unless that’s your vibe, in which case, hell yes.)

Think bold eyes, sculpted cheeks, that sexy glow that makes you look like you just stepped out of a noir film and are about to ruin someone’s life—in the best way.

You’re not changing who you are. You’re not “covering up.” You’re turning up the volume on a version of you that’s always been there—maybe just buried under Target receipts and dry shampoo. This is the version of you that walks into a room and doesn’t apologize for taking up space.

So when you’re thinking about your boudoir look, don’t play it safe. This isn’t the day to blend in. Be bold. Be a little extra. Be the glam version of yourself that makes everyday-you say “Damn, who is she?”

Because spoiler alert: she’s you. Just with a smokey eye and lighting that slaps.
