A few things to remember...



If you find yourself debating whether you will be bring a make up artist to retouch your make up (or your hair) the whole day or just have a DIY retouch on yourself for a photo shoot so you could save on fees or add-ons, here are a few things to remember.

If  you are shooting some photos especially some outdoor photos, you may have to bring a kit containing the following:

Compact mirror
Blotting papers-to remove excess shine before anything else!
Pressed powder with powder puff or sponge-after removing excess shine
Lipstick or lip gloss with color
Hair comb
Facial tissue and small face towel- wipe off any perspiration from your face with a facial tissue but be sure to just pat areas on face (not swiping motions). Small towel for neck and back.

If you are extremely oily, make up does not guarantee it will last for hours. An airbrush application of make up will make it last but normally when you are under a cool environment or air-conditioning with moderate light set-up.Otherwise, you need to have yourself retouched a few times to remove shine.This is when the make up artist should always be present especially on your big day never mind that you have to spend extra...just a thought though...=) You will never have to worry about your shiny shimmering splendid face!

New powder foundation discovery!

I have been searching for my new powder foundation as Kate Tokyo discontinued my fave😞(see the black case) Sorry for the ugly dirty case as it was stuck inside my drawer for a long time.Anyway, a friend told me about SilkyGirl make up! She told me it's really making her look flawless! Which I think it is! I bought my own powder foundation at Robinson's Galleria and oh,wow, my friend was right! I don't even need to use concealer. I know some people prefer to use liquid but I tend to use matte powder foundation because it gives me that polish and clean look.  I chose the cute Magic BB Oil-Control Pure Fresh Powder All-In-One because I don't have to use any concealer.  Comes in a small cute plastic case that fits perfectly in my palm. It has SPF 45 which says:  Shine-free Matte finish Long wearing Fragrance-free Formulated for Asia Skin I got the number  01- Fair because of the yellowish and light tone. Will post pics when my skin adjusted to my natural color... I'm s...

New packaging! New formulation?

This is again an update of the pressed powder I'm using! I just couldn't believe why I switched from a luxurious brand I was using before into this! I mean, it's nothing negative as this is still an Asian brand as it says "Made in Thailand" . This is actually good. The pressed powder is medium coverage for me like a foundation and I like that it covers my imperfections without using any concealer. Even my dark undereyes were magically covered!  I will post the before and after pics soon😊 Anyway, the new packaging is very handy and cute with a mirror inside! However, the scent is kind of "off" for me.I can't quite place it. The old version doesn't have that smell and is actually quite "unscented" (I have to do the  sniffing again once more just to be sure). I tried the powder again this time and I think it's just like before! My face looks flawless and blends into my skin after a few minutes! It's just the smell that's bothe...

It's been a long time...

 Oh my, it's been a long time since I have last posted something about work... and I think it has been a year already to be exact!  Anyway, I won't make any promises but I will really try my very best to post works more often and perhaps share more about what ladies often want to learn more. Even the men can join too.  And to share some more today, I almost gave up being a make up artist! Probably one of the reasons why is because, most people nowadays are becoming more and more of a critic and doesn't know what real art is. I had a lot of experiences, really bad ones, that I almost lost myself but I just prayed to God. Then, it happened...I still get blessings from Him. They just kept pouring in. I couldn't even believe it myself but I always thought God was the one who is telling me to slow down. To enjoy. To do my best.  Now, I'm grateful.This is me, still working and surviving....  after 13 years. Thank you God. I am grateful.
