This beautiful girl came and visited the studio recently for a Makeup Lesson and Photoshoot.

I absolutely loved her Mums feedback – “Thank you so much, such a beautiful thing you offer young girls. Such a confidence boost. So very grateful.”

The soft, dewy, glowy, bronzed beach skin is all the go at the moment. I took this opportunity to step right out of my comfort zone and try something new. I’ve always used powder products; blush, contour, highlight, etc, as that is what I was trained with, it’s what I know, I’m comfortable with it, confident with it, I know how it works and I know it looks good. I was nervous to give the creams a go, being a perfectionist there aint no room for f’ing it up. Errrmmmmagawd, I LOVE IT! This is essentially why I ask these beautiful creatures out to my studio, try new products, test my skills, grow, evolve. Poor Lara is very used to my colourful language #whoisnt and seeing that crease in between my brow as I reach for the makeup remover… We get there in the end, and I think you’ll agree, this was a win.

What look would you like me to demonstrate next?

This gorgeous girl popped in for a makeup lesson and photoshoot last month. Bree is an aspiring actress and wanted to learn how to do her makeup properly for auditions and was also requiring headshots for her StarNow profile. I absolutely LOVE this transformation, probably one of my favourite yet. Go get em Bree! And don’t forget to mention me in your Oscar speech x
