THE SECOND MUSLIM BEAUTY

As I promised, my second beauty of a muslim bride is Farah and her final pic is here.

Her makeup was of course airbrush based along with some conventional selections.  If there is ever a time that the makeup must stay put is whenever I come into contact with muslim brides and their beautiful hijabs.  The amount of movement that will occur to put them on, with conventional makeup will ultimately streak and leave 'footprints' on the garments.

That's why, to me, its even more imperative to ensure that the makeup is resistant to movement and the airbrush will always be the best choice.

BELOW LISTS WHAT WAS USED:

FACE:

• OCC Cosmetics in the Y Collection - Y3 and Y2 as the higlight shade
• OCC Cosmetics Blush in Hush
• Eyebrows by MAC in Spiked and clear gel

EYES:

• Gold & Bronze Eyeshadows from Coastal Scents on entire eyelid and crease
• Warm Brown Eyeshadow under the lower lashes
• MAC Paint Pot in Indianwood
• Revlon Liquid Eyeliner in Black
• Black Loreal Mascara

LIPS:

• Lauren Hutton Lip Pencil (as I write this I can't remember the shade name but it was definitely a rose tinted color)
• Lip Sealer by Mehron

As I mentioned before, I reduced any use of powder so there wouldn't be any mishaps, hope you guys like it!

MAKEUP PIC MISHAP

Hi!

I did promise (especially myself!) to come back and update the blog with the other look of the Muslim Bride - Farah however my camera malfunctioned and I lost the pic :-( sigh....

So, I have a bridesmaid and friend to apply makeup tomorrow and I intend to do airbrush eyeshadow and lashes as well on them both.  I will list out the products during the Easter Holidays.

I am waiting on my products that include eyeshadow and airbrush eyebrows from Dinair & TemptuPro.  As soon as I get them I will take out some pics and post a review.  So exciting!

I also mentioned that I will be taking pics of the stuff I do carry and I will review which ones are better.  I wish I had a camera to do this so ppl could see, but bit by bit right?!  I do enjoy blogging though when I actually could get off my ass to do it lol.

Anyway, I will be back during the week so bye bye....

TEMPORARY TATTOO APPLICATION & MAKEUP APPLICATION

I have another hectic day today starting with applying 2 temporary tattoos via airbrush and the persons want it to last for the entire Carnival Monday & Tuesday.  So I am walking with an arsenal of stuff to ensure it stays.

In addition, I have to do Renee Cummings' makeup for her hosting gig today as part of the hosting team for Carnival 2K10 Dimache Gras competition.  So of course its definite glam stage makeup today.

I will have some pics put up and explain some of the stuff used.  I realise I should start doing that :-) to make it even easier for ppl to understand.

JAYCEES CARNIVAL QUEEN SHOW 2K10 - THE LADIES!

As from my previous post, I indicated that I would be the Makeup Artist for this event and this wouldn't mean anything unless I show some pics right?!

Well I will upload them tomorrow if I am not too tired just to show off my new camera and that I used a water based version of the airbrush makeup - TEMPTUPRO.

Time to sleep now!
