Dinner & Dance Makeup for Yesica

Yesica wanted to attend her best friend wedding. She wanted to look fashionable, stylist & modern. She has typical asian eyes, in which I need to open her eyes by creating moderate smoky eyes. Without changing much her look, Yesica need not to much makeup, but proper technique to soften her strong asian character to look modern & fashionable.

Before

After

Previously I did another makeup when she engaged me last year when she wanted to attend her company Dinner & Dance, the theme was classic Shanghai.

 

Day Make up for Angela

Angela in her 50s, wanted to attend her Indian niece wedding at the temple. She wanted to have Nude makeup look, as she wants to look fresh & clean & also at the same time, being her self. She portray her self as simple house wife who never put makeup.
I use MAC Studio Sculpt NC 30 for her sensitive skin.
There was not much makeover for her hair as time constraint. I did straighten a little bit & then teased her top to give her soft hair volume & body.

Makeup for Female Magazine April 2012

The Taste Maker

5 ladies, all are in their 30s who works successfully in food business, show their passion and glamorous taste about fashion.

I started my makeup at 9am at the home of Tan Su Lyn, a food consultant. Her home is stylist 2 story house with perfect design. Personally, I admire her house house style & design. She looks simple, chic, smart & down to earth home maker. I was using MAC studio sculpt NC 25 for her foundation.

Another glamorous house wife who really passionate in cooking is Foo Mei Zee. She is wearing a louis VUitton Spring 2012 dress and has created a cake which inspired by LV 2012 collection. I admire her cooking.

The SPH magazine team whom I work with, had managed to feast a little from her specialities raging from simple Otak sandwich, fried chicken Dumpling. Oh yeah.. Her dumpling is really tasty, with stuffing crunchy water chestnut. she also made-blend her own cocktail which was really refreshing. We were all wondering, how Mei Zee able to maintain her beauty despite her cinder passion. Mei Zee has a wonderful skin. Her complexion & skin tone are plus factor on the process of doing make up for her photo shoots. I was using ShuUe mura skin Architect for her foundation.

I did not managed to take the other 3 ladies pictures. They are Ayako Suwa, a Japanese food artist based in Hongkong who
was invited to come to singapore to create a food art for Gucci's 90th anniversary.

Bridal Morning at 20th November 2011 at Conrad Centenial

I managed to take a snap shoot, before the ceremony started. Unfortunately, the lighting wasn't balance for my Canon Ixus (pocket camera) in capturing image. It is still look a little bit yellowish (lack of white balance) because of the reflection the desk lamp behind.  The morning sun light from the window made her look slightly over exposed although It was only 6.50 am. So from distance sculpting effect on the makeup wasn't visible. Over all  I am glad that the job done excellent,  my client was happy with my natural makeup ( and still got this picture taken by her mother)

Regarding the makeup,  I remember, her skin was a bit of combination. Her undertone is yellow as most of Asian skin, but there is slight light pink on the surface. So, to match her skin tone, and make it look natural, I have to mix the foundation colours.

JERICHO ACTIVE SERUM DEAD SEA MINERALS REVIEW

I've been using the product for 2 months. Its a great product, although price is  a bit steep. It is 25 ml and last me only 2 and a half month.

The Usage is applied at least 2 times a day, morning & night after the toner, before moisturiser. For me, one pump is only enough applied for one side of my face, so I need 2 pumps for my whole face each time I applied.

 The Pro :

When I applied it has a layer of something like wax (although it claim to be paraben free), but it has very good effect on face instantly, by re-activate those other ingredients effectively so my skin become subtle, smoothe , look brighter, healthy & radiant. It also makes my pore looks finer, perhaps by filling into my pores on the spot.
In makeup, definitely has the effect of plumping my skin as seems as I am putting an ampules before I start on my makeup.

The Con :

Price is steep & not standard, means you must ready to bargain this product. Usually the seller will offer discount & the price really can be discounted up to 40% if you are expert on bargaining. I got this stuff of 25 ml for $140 somewhere in October 2011.

There is no counter in the department store, sellers usually put up small counter in the mall. So far I only know it available at Tampines Century Square, some where in Suntec City Mall and a spa shop at Harbour Front.  I am still not sure in term of credibility of the product in the future.

Bottle/ Container is long, taller comparing to the amount of content. I felt like the packaging of this product is really cheating. The tube is about 15 cm tall, but the part that has content is only 5 cm in the center.

Over-all  Verdict :

Good product 4.5 (out of 5), definitely will buy again.
Price  2 (out of 5)
Packaging  2 (out of 5)
