Makeup that holds on camera
Cassinix was built around one straightforward idea - that makeup for a shoot is a different craft entirely, and it deserves a specialist approach.
Precision over polish
Camera and video change everything. Lighting rigs, high-resolution sensors, and colour grading in post all interact with makeup in ways that look nothing like what you see in a mirror. A foundation that photographs beautifully under studio strobes can look completely flat under LED ring lights - and vice versa. Getting that right takes specific knowledge, not just skill.
Since 2015, every client brief we take on gets treated as a technical problem with an aesthetic answer. We factor in the camera format, the lighting setup, the intended output - whether that's a magazine spread, a product reel, or a long-form documentary - and build the look from there. It's not guesswork; it's preparation.
Three things we don't compromise on
Colour accuracy
We match pigments to how they read under your specific light source - not how they look in a makeup mirror. That distinction matters when the final image is the deliverable, not the live look.
Longevity under pressure
Shoots run long. Heat from studio lighting, multiple takes, and hours between setups all test a look. We build in durability from the first product choice, not as an afterthought.
Honest briefing
If a look won't translate to camera the way a client imagines it, we say so before we start. That conversation saves time on set and produces better results than discovering the problem during editing.
Location isn't a barrier
Cassinix operates entirely online. Consultations, product guidance, technique coaching, and pre-shoot planning all happen remotely - which means a photographer in Helsinki and a videographer in São Paulo can work with us on the same week. The service doesn't change based on where you are.
