Naked Cosmetics

Whoever read up on my last few blogs knows that I have mentioned going to the Artist Summit a few weeks ago. When I went there I played and purchased some naked cosmetics. The makeup product is made of natural elements those that do not include talc, oil, or wax products that can damage your skin.

I find it super interesting that you can basically make anything out of this product. Its loose powdery shimmers can be used as eyeshadow, liner, bronzer, NAIL POLISH, LIP GLOSS, and even TEMPORARY HIGHLIGHTS. I find this extremely fascinating, because I never thought something so generic can be put in use in such fabulous ways.






Eyeshadow: you can use it wet or dry, wet for harsh shadow look. I find wetting the product looks better, then going on top with the same powder dry for a more exotic eye.

Eyeliner: wet an angle brush to a desired shadow powder color and use as eyeliner!

Lips: using a brush or your finger you can use the product by itself or with a clear gloss.

Bronzer: mix with lotion and apply it on your face as bronzer.

Nail polish: mix with clear nail polish for a fascinating color, you can even match your eye makeup to your nail polish, amazing.

Temporary hair highlights: Apply color on the root to the end of your hair and spray with hair spray to set the color.

These is just genius is all I have to say.

Skinny Intern

Most of us bloggers read other bloggers sites for amusement and inspiration. I got to work a photoshoot with one of my favorite photographers Heather Talber and got to work a shoot with Kristin Ondocsin blogger of Skinny Intern. We shot in Miami at some area with a ton of rusty tanks laying around and kept relocating. We also shot at some warehouse. It was an exciting shoot, I cant wait to see the photos. Here are some photos I quickly snapped on my phone.




The makeup look was a lightly winged eyeliner with natural false lashes, pink lips and cheeks. The look resembled a 50's angelic look. Very innocent and beautiful. The second makeup look I gave Kristin a dark raspberry lip-color and went stronger with her blush.

Busy Busy Bee

A few things!

I worked Funkshion Fashion Week, it was super exciting to work. I worked Richie Rich's show, the Red Dress Fashion Show, Rio Soul, and Fragolina Pompadour. I was backstage for Nicole Millers show, but didn't work it. I got to meet Richie Rich, hes fun and fabulous! Also, I got to work on a familiar face ;) for those who watch Americas Next Top Model, I worked on model Onchel's face from Cycle 7 of ANTM.

Luckily, I am good friends with photographer Rich Jackson; he snapped away some photos backstage.
It seems like I am always waiting for my cds to arrive. Speaking of late arriving cds, I just got mine from photographer Edward Le Poulin. We worked a shoot out in NYC a while ago.. this cd has been going around in circles in the post-office.

As for today, I will be heading off to Miami, and will be working with fabulous blogger Skinny Intern and photographer Heather Talbert.

I promise I will have all my photos of all the shoots and shows I've recently worked on my website soon! SO KEEP POSTED <3

Nicole Miller and myself.
