New Client Alert!

My client was going to a few events today and wanted a nice face that would last all day. I primed her face with UD setting spray, Garnier gel moisturizer, and hourglass primer. For her foundation I used Matchmaster by MAC. Her under eye highlight is Mac concealer palette and her lips are lined in BBQ and half n' half l/s all by Mac with a peach revlon gloss over top. I was in love with this look. 

Engagement photoshoot

Before & After

Meet my beautiful client Desiree! I was so happy to work with her for her engagement photos. She expressed that she liked pinks and her dress was a lime green so I used some purple and pink hues. Her foundation is match master by MAC. I love this foundation because the skin just absorbs it and it looks very natural all while giving great coverage.

Mommy-to-be

Love working with this mommy-to-be! I had the pleasure of doing her makeup for her baby shower.

I didn't use any foundation on her, instead I used concealer and powder. She has a bronzy eye with a natural lash by Creme'. Her shadows are all MAC: embark, brown down, coppering, redbrick.

She is wearing MAC studio finish concealer and MAC MSF in Dark. Her cheeks are by Milani the shade is Rose'Dioro. I used blunt blush by MAC to contour her nose and cheeks. Her lips are a mixture of MAC lipsticks.
