Playing dress up

 

I've been making a transition into putting more thought into my outfits recently
Taking a lot of reference from my ever so stylish friend Allison- esp the scrunchie!
Just before a night out Allison said 'I'll be ready in two secs, just need to change my scrunchie..' 
she swapped her black one for a white one AHA! So cute!
Anyways, I bought mine yesterday from boots - TWO FOR £5 AT BOOTS?!?! WTF. SMH.
But to be honest, the scrunchie holds up ALL my hair at once so I guess I should not be complaining
And I've also been wearing other outfits than my usual- shirt, jumper, shorts, tights. booooooo! BORING!

Test Shoot with Emma @ Storm

 

 

 

 

 

 

Another fun test shoot with some of my favourite people
aka Saskia the photographer, Allison and Matti stylists, Ishy the great cat and shoot mascot 
We had the pleasure to meet the lovely Emma @ Storm who just had the most prettiest eyes!
I made the most of it by putting a lot of attention on the eyes (pops of greens and purples)
and highlighter was used all over the face for that dewy look I seem to be in love with atm and even the lips!
I braided the hair - in all sorts of braids possible! Loved it! But now I look back on it
and I think I could have made the look a bit messier and bigger.

Allison and Matti did a really good job by mixing the lingerie pieces they sourced
with a lot of other pieces from the highstreet stores.

Lingerie for the shoot was provided by Lingerie PR -
the FIRST and ONLY company who house lingerie brands ONLY!
an interesting fact for you right there :)

All the photos can be found on Saskia's website but here is a little taster!
One of my favourite photos from the shoot!

Bridal Makeup Booking


The beautiful bride-to-be Tenzin and I had been in contact for a while
regarding her wedding so it so lovely to finally meet her!
Tenzin wanted a very laid back, bohemian style makeup/ hair 
and I think she made the best choice because she looked absolutely beautiful on her wedding day!
Congratulations and I wish you all the best for the future   

Face Painting for Wildside Clothing

 

I do enjoy a bit of face painting!
Alex, who is the founder of wildside clothing asked me for create some skeleton/ sugar candy skull designs
Here are the two models Sam and Sonyia looking sexy with their face covered in face paint!
I really enjoyed it and I cant wait to paint some faces using face paint again
HALLOWEEN COME SOONER PLEASE!


Beauty shoot for Navyaata Magazine (Nepal Publication) [BTS]

 

Beauty shoot alongside photographer Thomas Langley for Navyaata magazine 
Spring Summer makeup on two models- Krishma and Rafeeka @ Lenis
Can't wait for the photos to come out soon in the coming month :D
Tom's done a brilliant job with the photos and the models were so fab-
Krishma is just a natural beaut and Rafeeka just had the SOFTEST SKIN EVER!
And I also had a massive help from Millie Howkins who did the nails 
she was very quick and did a fab job all at the same time!
