Hints & Tips

Glowing skin, and bright feline eyes

Prep and Prime

My Advice for helping on creating that gorgeous base for make-up, will always be a consistent skincare routine. For a maximum glow & hydration try a suitable routine that suits your skin type, to apply day & night. Try & do this four to six months before your shoot day, wedding day or just to achieve skin result. This will help you to feel confident, a glow from within your own skin look. Helping to restore, hydrate, even skin tone and create radiance.

One of my secrets in creating picture-perfect skin, is to smooth and blend foundation on the skin that will blur any imperfections. The trick is to NEVER rub it on when applying.

Top Tip

To delay early signs of aging always use an SPF 50. Protecting your skin every year around the sun, will reduce fine lines, wrinkles and minimise any dark spots. The best skincare product you could ever use to protect yourself against UVA (skin aging) and UVB (dark spots). It's never too late to start!

Brows

“Eyebrows are sisters, not twins”. Important when completing any make-up look. Groom the shape and fill and shade, extending with an eyebrow pencil to frame the eyes.

Eye Shadow

Is kept to a minimum for a feline look, with just a subtle highlighter on the brow bone, followed by gentle contouring through the socket.

Liner and Lashes

Using a gel/liquid liner in black, start on the inner corner of the eye and increase the width of liner as you extend towards the outer corner finishing with a flirty flick. To give the eyes a polished defined yet understated feel, build up lash density with mascara top and bottom.

A Perfect Pout

Is a must to finish the look. Apply lip liner to intensify the colour, filling in the entire top and bottom lip before tidying the edges at the end. Working from the middle use your desired lip shade, layering until the colour pops.
