Stories of a makeup artist...

                                                                                                                                                                 I love this lip pencil! It serves as a lip color/lipstick too!                                                   They also have a wide selection of nail polish,                                     ...

Nothing bold? Instead of gold....try this..... I thought I should share this.I got it from the internet. The highlights are not gold and it looks really good.The base is not so dark maybe it's in medium brown. Beautiful highlights for updo hairstyles!

Jessica Alba's messy updo looks good compared to a darker hue underneath which will look unkept when styled. Women who has naturally curly or wavy hair works well with this kind of style.Just be sure that you color your hair lighter than your real one! To add more dimension to your hair and more softer look, go for subtle highlights! This is a hairstyle that screams "cool" or "rockin' gorgeous"! But be sure it suites your face and overall look.As you can see, she has brown eyes and spiky lashes which also matched her creamy complexion.This kind of hairstyle only goes to those who has very soft and fine hair.A messy updo like this if not done correctly will literally be called "messy". So to be safe add highlights to it. Her hair is in a light shade of brown highlighted with a bit of gold , an inch or two from her roots which is so  flattering to her lightly tanned skin.She looks fresh and every inch a goddess.               ...

We airbrush our make up nowadays...we airbrush because it feels lighter on our skin and faster to use than regular make up. And pictures are more vivid and sharper due to hi-technology, pores are seen--- naturally. Evey pore.Every mole.Every scar.So what do we do?Of course, if we want to appear as flawless as possible,we cover them but without letting our gadgets see what is really underneath.Even our cellular phones can detect that flaw. We turn everything into an art but a form that no one else can see but you.It's our secret. And the secret lies to the artist that controls the airbrush. Sorry for the funny face! But this is the skin after it has been airbrushed! By the way, I applied a little concealer under my eyes and I just saw it just now that a part of it was not properly concealed=( Oh well...I hope it aint too obvious....haha... Still, you can see the freckles but slightly covered.You don't really cover them! They should appear naturally=)...

 The bride requested a very thin rhinestone headband with crystals but I could not find one.So I made my own version here. These are pics I took using my Nikon. Bridal Gown by Cecilio Abad

I had the chance to do make up of these models for the Magalogue January -February 2013.We wanted to achieve a look that is natural here since most of their products does not contain any harsh chemicals.Natural would mean "less is more" in the make up sense.When you buy their products, it  means you are wiser than most people and you want to help our Mother Earth,right? The chemicals you use are actually good ones that does not harm the ozone layer and most living organisms including us humans.If you look through my vanity shower, most of them are from Human Nature. I love their products and I have lesser allergies or no allergy at all when I began using them. Food is one major factor that you consider when dealing with allergies but with Human Nature, I had good, steady skin.
