Bridal Competition

And the winner is.....ASHLEY MICHAEL BIRD

Ashley is my go to girl whenever I want my hair done, She did my Beavering Highlights and my fingerwave for Kathy's Wedding. Im so Happy for her, Her model was adorable and Ashley is so incredibly talented. When I first started school I felt overwhelmed, slighlty confused and anxious, I turned to Ashley for advice and without hesitation  she helped me and took me under her "Bird" wing and when I asked her what I could do to repay her for her guidance she said

"Pay it forward and help out others when you can"

CONGRATS Ashley!

Bridal Competition Makeup

 

Last Night, Javier from Faces by Javier hosted a Bridal Makeup Tutorial for some friends and I. I got to be the model which was fun cause I've only had my makeup done professional once before. Being the model had its benefits because I could feel how much pressure and the kinds of brush strokes he would use to apply the makeup. The session with Javier will come in very handy next week for the Carsten Aveda Bridal Competition. He gave us lots of tip and techniques to applying makeup to achieve a fresh natural glowing Bride. You can go to his Website to book him for your Special Event or for a Tutorial Session Watch his videos on Youtube to keep up with the  hottest makeup looks.

Beauty and the Beast: Jemma Kidd Makeup Master class

I picked up this book at the library the other day. Its really awesome. Jemma Kidd is a former model and now a famous makeup artist. The book is huge and filled with so much information. Jemma did a great job breaking things down and making the book very visually pleasing. And whether your new to makeup or have been applying it for decades, this book is a great investment for you. Newbies won't be overwhelmed and she list many options and encourages you to experiment. She features great tips and side notes even seasoned artists may learn a thing or two. She does day to night, Beach or boardroom, special occasion or casual looks and works with every skin tone under the sun. I definitely recommend adding Make-up Masterclass to your library.
