Shampoo Night!

Behind the scenes after a photoshoot.... my brush collection is GROWING!!! That Gucci bag used to be my handbag for work until I decided it would be more suitable being part of my makeup ensemble..... :)

Black Feathers

The 'before' shot...

I was so inspired by Will & Kate's Wedding guests all dressed up with their hats and fascinators I just had to put this on my model. LOVE IT!!

EMERGENCY ANNOUNCEMENT

To my dear clients,

I am going to, unfortunately, be unable to make any 'house calls' for the next couple of weeks. Any 'new' bookings will have to be turned down for now until further notice.

However, make-up service from my place is still okay. So please come over to see me if you need make-up. $50.

Thank you for your understanding ;)

White Bra

Yes.. 'White Bra' is the title of this post...Why?? Because it amazes me how quite a lot of brides out there do not realise that when you wear a white top you should NEVER wear a white bra. It will show very, very, very, very clearly...! You do NOT want that...especially on your nikah day.

I absolutely hate to use this picture as an example because I do LOVE Christina but seriously, who let her go out looking like this?!?! OMG! But this really does show what you will see if you have a white bra underneath a white top. DO NOT do this on your wedding day or any day for that matter! Just doesn't look right.

So instead, when you have a white dress to wear, have on a skin tone bra on. Anything light tan will do. And keep the pattern plain.... don't go all lacey and fancy, just a plain smooth skin coloured bra is the best type of bra to wear together with a white top.

;)

This is what I'm talking about. wear something like this and your white dress will be the focus... hehehe...

My Hand In Action

Did I ever tell you that I've loved make-up since I was 6 years old.....????

Lipstick used here... The NEW Lady Gaga lipstick...and matching lip gloss. Not the pale pink one but the perfect beige shade... I've always wanted to get that 'jLo' nnude look. This is the one to buy!

Black Ribbon and Smokey Eyes

This is the 'before shot'....

GORGEOUS!!!

This is also a mother of two, little boy and little girl. Can you believe she just had her latest baby 5 months ago!! So yes... she deserves a great makeover too... ;)

Photographer for the day was Ak. Amir Reza. View some of his work at http:flickr.com/vivalamirez

All shots were not heavily editted. Only very minimal touches.

Oh and yes.. the hair.. again.. used my bestfriend.. The Bumpit!!! So damn easy to use... I can't get over it!!!

The Girl Grew Up

This was a fun photoshoot session... simple and straight forward.. Everyone was lovely to work with and the Photographer... wow.. quite talented... I like his style. He was very fast and extremely polite. He did not do a huge amount of editing... actually he only lightened and darkened the photos but NO major edit work goin' on here.. That should make it easier for my 'critics' to assess my work.. ;)
