First Day of Class

Allison has always loved the mod look so for our “Inspirations Class” she chose to do this style of makeup on Jessica. She was very focused on doing the lines perfectly and succeeded in creating a really great makeup.

Testing

Thalita has been doing some great makeup lately on clients so we decided to do a test photo shoot this week to push ourselves a bit more, and for me to get back into the swing of things for the classes beginning on the 6th.

Art of Beauty on a Saturday Afternoon

It’s really great to do such a variety of different things and what I enjoy the most are the diversity of people that I meet through this. Here is the group that I did the latest Art of Beauty video with and hopefully will be working with a lot more. Thank you Chris Hannan for introducing me to my new creative director, David Dumas (see center). Video to come soon.

On QVC again

Well for all of you late night owls I will be on another QVC show. This time  at 3am on Tuesday 24th. I hope that you will clock in and see if I have any new hints about applying eyeliner that may be of help to you for any fabulous events you have coming up. In the mean time for those of you who already have the fabulous “Kingfisher” color you could try this with it.

A True Leo

The talented Social Media PR and founder of Izzi Bag, Anne Agoren came by and we had a great time playing with makeup. I used the Earth 2 liquid Base with a paler  earth concealer around her eyes and touches of Thumbelina cream base  for extra coverage on certain parts of the face and finished the complexion with  my great “OOM” translucent powder. She is a true Leo , vivacious, glamorous and fiery. So I stuck to the Leo Melody of colors. I blended a matte light shadow over the eyelids and  grey storm from the base of the upper lashes outwards towards the end of the brows. Because of Annes heavier lid I opted for my new Graffitigel liner in Moire, it won’t budge once it is applied and with this eye shape you have to be wary of smudging. Almost the most important point, I gave Anne eyebrows, delicately shaping them with a soft brow color Blondi.
For the lips in the softer look I  used Lipwand “Pop” and for the warmer makeup “Look”  the red hot lipcolor in the kit and warmed up the complexion with “OOM” bronzer.
Both these photos were taken in Daylight but as you can clearly see the one with the red lips was taken later in the day when the light was warmer.

Easter

I was asked by my Church, St Luke in the Fields , to do a painting depicting the scene of John 21 1:14 when the resurrected Jesus appeared to 7 of his disciples on the shore of the sea of Galilee . I did 4 pieces so I thought that I would share this one with you for Easter. Have a wonderful day

The Best Matte Red Lipstick

Sophia is such an elegant lip color. I named this lipstick after Sophia Loren. It’s a sensuous, glamorous, and earthy brown-red. It looks great on all skin types. It’s the type of red you can throw on when you’re going out to garden, but beware if the neighbor sees you- he might jump over the fence. If you are the timid type it’s best to wear in the evening. You can find this Lipstix on our website www.lindamason.com.
