The 3rd Philippine Wedding Industry Ball



The Phillipinne Wedding Association of Planners recently held a memorable event for all the Filipino suppliers at Dusit Thani Manila on November 4,2014. All the suppliers, including I,  as make up artist were there to experience a formal gala wearing only modern designs of Filipino wear. Since I was not so prepared and it was my last minute decision to join, I just borrowed a simple black gown made for my petite height and frame.So I just made my make up look ultra-glam and flawless and had my hair down to one side to frame my face. 

So, here is my look:




I enhanced my face by using only browns, greys and blacks for my eyes for a smoky effect. I blended everything making sure there were no harsh lines. And to make my eyes pop, I wore natural but long uneven strands of false strip lashes and finished it off with a wiggle of black mascara.

How about my eyebrows? I made it actually heavier or a little dramatic by giving it a squared effect on the area where it sits on top of the nose line. Since it was an evening affair and the venue was in a hotel,where the lights are more softer and more dramatic, I decided to give it a go but I was hesitant at first because I know a change of shape in  eyebrows makes me look totally different. 

And to make my eyes look bigger, I wore contact lenses in a greyish hue. 

I love coral lips! So I used that colored instead to tame everything! And I'm right about highlight and contouring it brings out the dimensional effect in your face. 

Here are some pics with some suppliers I said "hello" to.

His outfit was so unique and so modern.

With Berlyn Yap of Blissful Events and also a member of PAWP.She looks so elegant and beautiful.

With Jervy Santiago, one of the most sought-after celebrity and wedding photographers. He came a bit late due to some work load so I'm not so sure about his clothing but I guess arriving in formal is acceptable. 

With Jason Magbanua, also a known videographer in the industry

One of the finalists in the most best dressed category.She designed this on her own.How creative! 



Hair and Make up I did for designer Sheryl Vicente. She designed her own gown ofcourse! Elegant!

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

Temptu Airbrush Make up

This make up was done a few years ago with the use of airbrush liquids specifally this brand Temptu. Check them out at  https://temptu.com/ .  I've started doing airbrush 2007 when I thought there was a need for it. I was looking for alternatives on make up brands that would actually mimic a flawless skin. My first machine and airbrush set is OCC or Obssessive Compulsive Cosmetics still from the US but I just heard the business closed down this year though.Too bad the make up was good.  Here in this look, I created a high-definition effect using all Temptu liquids. Mixing everything from eyeshadows to bronzers. The eyeliner and  lipsticks were manually done with make up brushes though as they tend to be very precise and detailed. The eyebrows were stenciled but blended well. The lashes were also attached after all the make up were done.

Imagine us, sisters who bonded on the last hours before she says "I do". We just laughed and cried!I will never forget this moment!  I chose not to do a neutral or earth-tone look as I was eyeing a look that's a little both dramatic and ethereal. I asked Jay, my trusted hairstylist and friend to do her beautiful braided hair.
