14th January wedding
Saturday, January 14th, 2012
An early start this morning for TheMakeupGirl Team, we were at The Inn Woburn – Beds to beautify the lovely bride Sarah and her bridal party of 3 bridesmaids and mum-of-groom (MOG) The ceremony was taking place at the Abbey and then the reception at The Sculpture Gallery. A gorgeous, crisp, sunny day.
Sarah chose to wear her hair part up with loose curls. Her complexion was flawless, Sarah doesn’t usually wear any make up so didn’t want to look plastered on her wedding day! She wanted to look radiant and beautiful and still remain recognisable by here guests and most importantly by her groom (James)
Congratulations Sarah & James, we wish you a very happy future together as Mr & Mrs

Organic Make-up Photoshoot
Tuesday, December 13th, 2011
On a recent shoot I had to leave my usual make up range behind and use a
brand of products that had been chosen for the photo shoot. This was a project
for Freja Magazine due to be launched next year. The photographer Ester Keate
wanted to create flawless, organic, natural images of our model in the nude
against a nude backdrop. My job as a make up artist is to stick to brief and
create the look my client has requested.
The make up range that I used is called Une the company that make Bourjois
make up are behind this range of 99.9% organic and free from chemical range. I
can tell you that is was an interesting shoot! The model arrived full of cold,
red raw nose, quite a few pimples and of course not being able to use my usual camouflage
or corrective make up that I carry for emergencies such as this….I did have a
mild panic! But after quite a lot of foundation; liquid and cream foundation
from this range I managed to create a flawless finish. It did take a lot longer
than it would if I was using MAC or MUF foundation but this shoot was all about
looking natural using natural.
So, this makes me wonder – what goes into “regular” make up that
makes it so creamy, so blend-able and rich in pigment, texture, colour,
life….???
