How To: Grunge Style Make Up
How To: Grunge Style Make Up
So yesterday I did a shoot and the brief was a bit rock/grunge for the make up. I can't post the pic's yet but I have attached an image of grunge make up taken from previous fashion weeks.Beauty in Colour
I recently shot a beauty story with very talented Ulrich Knoblauch based in Cape Town. Even though these looks are not looks you would wear out every day there are definite colours in the make up that can be translated into a more wearable look. We saw a lot of pops of colour all over the spring/summer 2013 fashion weeks. We just took the colours that much further.

For me one of the most important things when you step out your door is making sure you have beautiful hydrated highlighted skin. Even for those women that don't like wearing much make up this look is perfect.Essie Nail Stickers

Its seems that more and more companies are jumping on the nail sticker craze that is taking the beauty world by storm. Essie have now introduced their nail stickers.Nails inc
So as I live in Cape Town I thought I would share that Nails Inc are coming to South Africa exclusively to Edgars. If you are not aware of the brand its an English brand big in london. Not all the stores in South Africa will stock the brand straight away but happy that a new brand is being launched here.
Mac Cosmetic Trends for Spring/Summer 2013
Mac Cosmetic Trends for Spring/Summer 2013
So I have spent the last few days researching trends and what new make up products are coming out. This is a big reason why I love Mac Cosmetics because they are constantly bring out new products that are alsways so on trend and are amazing quality. For me Mac is great for achieving beautiful skin. One of the new trends for spring/summer 2013 is beautiful skin ans Mac have nailed this look. Here are some looks from the shows using Mac Cosmetics and I will definitely do a make up tutorial on one of the looks. What I also love about Mac is they tell you what they used to create the look for the shows. I am looking forward to trying out the Mineralize Moisture Fluid foundation, the cream shadows, blushes and lip palettes.To Prime or not to Prime
Since starting my blog I have been asking friend's what do they use on their face and what their beauty routines are and dop they use a primer under their foundation.
My favourite looks so far from Paris Couture Fashion Week 2013
The Paris Couture Fashion Week took place beginning of this week. Of course the clothes were amazing but I want to focus on the hair and make up from the shows.

I recently shot a cover for a local South African brand Ackerman's of the beautiful Manoela from Full Circle models shot by the talented Romi Stern. I wanted to share how I created the look.
