*YASMIN*

I had the pleaser of working with a stunning photographer Brooke Shaw I was amazed by the way she worked as she had a clear view of what she was hoping of getting and it showed in the photos they turned out amazing. Yasmin Harnell is a up and coming model and these photos where for her portfolio and I was just in aww when I saw her she has the most stunning colour skin and she has a sweetness to her appearance that I loved.

Natural Beauty


One thing I love is when a model brings abit of herself to shoots Yasmin made this white feather skirt she is wearing in this photo so amazing.

Dark Side

The concept for this photo was link makeup so starting off natural and adding to the look each change and making it more edgy each time. I was so happy with the changes I did they are small but u can tell in each photo something is different.

I had an amazing shoot with the very talented photographer Fabliha Reza in the Brisbane city and was amazed by her styling and passion for what she does and cant believe she is only 17yrs old she has a bright future in front of her that I am sure of. Oriwa Williams was a stunning model and great to work with and strives to achieve a perfect shot every time.


A few quick edits from Fabliha Reza shoot x
Behind the scenes shots


The makeup concept for this shoot was very strong brows, eyes and lips wanting to keep it all very high fashion and clean.

Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics
LIP TARS

Product review

I watched alot of youtube videos on these lip tars and saw all the colours and got excited. So I knew Id love them so I got a few colours and tried them out and LOVED them. The great thing about lip tars is there is a black and white so u can mix them with the other colours and create your own. Plus there is also a clear tar that allows you to turn any loose shadow into a gloss or new lip colour. Some colours will seem weird like the blue or green but remember these are for mixing and creating your own shade of lip tar.


Here is a photo of what the lip tars look like and colours

Here are some swatches of the colours available

NSFW: PRIMARY, BLUE-BASED RED
ANIME: VIVID, NEON PINK
KATRICIA: RICH, CREAMY VIOLET
SAFETY ORANGE: TRUE, VIVID ORANGE
TARRED: TRUE BLACK-A MIXING MUST
MEMENTO: COQUETTISH PINK/PLUM

Here colours have been mixed with Feathered which is the white.

GRANDMA + FEATHERED: CORAL AND WHITE
KATRICIA + FEATHERED: PURPLE AND WHITE
RX + FEATHERED: BLUE AND WHITE
Overall I must admit I would hands down rather buy lip tars over lipsticks as you can create your own colours and you only need to use the smallest amount of product to get a colour pay off. I would buy theses again and again.

Modern day pin-up

Barry M
GLITTER DUST

Product Review

So I saw someone use the Barry M glitter dust and fell in love with them so I decided to buy 3 colours. So I used them in the look below but were very unsatisfied with the pay off. The dust colours I got were #21, #22, #23 all are black based with colour glitters in them. I found the only way to get a good pay off was to use the dust wet and pack them on even then the glitters don't show up like u would like them. Glitter dust also come in just colours and I wonder if they work better then having a black base one but I'm not sure Ill be buying anymore.



Here are the colours I used in this review
