Makeup Transformation

This week at work I had the pleasure of doing some of my co workers makeup to practice for some clients that came into the salon on Saturday for a wedding... Below is a photo of my friend Leah. I used the products our salon carries which is Jane Iredale... as you can see she has some redness so I used an under eye concealer and something that had a more matte finish because she likes heavy coverage. I did a nice simple fall look on her eyes as well.

This second photo is a bridesmaid that came in to get her makeup done... She wanted a dramatic smokey eye with some falsies... She had a darker completion so I did some grays and some purples to make her brown eyes stand out. They were really happy with how it looked. Her skin looked flawless as well. I am pretty bummed I didnt get a pic of the second brides maid though. 

Fire Ball and Fairy Makeup!

Halloween was crazy... So many people came to me for makeup.. I only had time for a few. These are some photos of what I did. My sister ( who is pictured first) was "FIREBALL" for Halloween she wanted a look that was pretty intense.. something that she had never done before. I had so much fun with this look. I was really really happy with the way that it came out. It wad not hard at all. I used a reference picture but of course I made it my own. For this look I used Ben Nye "Clown White" as the primer, only because its more of a heavy base makeup and it makes the color stick way more proficiently and makes the color more intense.  We added gems for a more creative look. She even had the hair extensions to match! 

Below is my friend Aimee. She was the tooth fairy for Halloween. I wanted to do something super girly and cute because thats what I think of when I think tooth fairy. Lots of glitter and glitz! I wa happy with how this cam out. Aimee does not really ever wear tons of makeup so I wanted to do something creative but not too crazy intense. I used some glitter, pretty purples and I decided to do a cute elegant design on one side of the face with liquid liner.. I thought this was a nice touch.  

Joker Makeup! Halloween LOOKS!

-Joker Makeup-

So this look literally creeped me out for a little while... This took me about an hr and a half;. It was a little bit complicated just because of the placement of the teeth. I used only a few different products for this look it was not too complicated. I am really happy with how it turned out. Once again I doubted myself with this look,.. I did not think I would be able to do it but I think Ipulled it off... I added a little touch of green under my eyes just to add that "Joker" vibe to it.. 

for this look I used Ben Nye "Clown White" all over my face. 

For all the wrinkles I traced my real wrinkles while scrunching my face and just traced them with gray and black shadow with a skinny thin makeup brush. For the darker black and the black on the teeth is all liquid liner! 

Hope you enjoy! More to come! Happy Halloween! 

Lady Gaga look #2

This is another Lady Gaga look that I did the other day it was really simple. I just used liquid liner for the lightning bolt. I loved this look from her Poker Face video.. I got this wig and thats exactly what it reminded me of... this look I feel is also very David Bowie which I dont mind either. 

Lips-I used a nude color that I had and added a pink shimmer on top. 

For the highlight I used Hard Candys "Glamoflauge" which is great stuff 

Eyes- I used a color similar to MACS "Woodstock" and a bit of "Passionate" and "Girlie" by Mac.

Nice Simple Fall look

This is a look I did the other day that I loved...It was really simple I did a nice subtle smokey eye, with this really pretty new lip stick i bought it is wet and wild and Its called black orchid. I love it for fall. On top of it all its matte and it stayed all day at work. I got this idea from a photo I saw on pinterest. I love using browns and golds for fall. I love how it looks. Hope you enjoy. I used smashbox and elf and urban decay for this look.

this is the photo I got my idea from... of course i am not this beautifullll....

Sooo.... I am trying to take more time dedicated to makeup recently.. I finally have a clear mind and I can get the ball rolling again.... I am really going to try to post as much as I can on here and  my twitter and on tumblr and FB. Today I decided to do some costume makeup on myself since Halloween is right around the corner.. I figured my blog would be better if I just post the photos and do less typing so... I will just be doing that from now on and if you are interested in how it is done you can contact me on my new professional Facebook page. 

This look was really easy and didnt take me long at all! I am really happy with the way that it came out! I used Ben Nye and for the cracks I used liquid liner of course! I hope you like! 

Feel free to share... there will be more photos to come later.These are just quickes.
