Halloween 2017 – Edmonton Makeup Artist

When your mom is a makeup artist, you are ready for any occasion.  Especially Halloween!! Hehehe I absolutely love Halloween because I can go all out on the makeup part.  My 5yr old daughter is always down to get her makeup done, she really is her mother’s daughter. lol This year we decided we wanted to be zombies and that we were!!  Enjoy!! Lol

My niece wanted to be a reindeer for Halloween.  Aunty Lily delivered or what!? Bambi who?!! Lol

Asian Eyes – Edmonton Asian Makeup Artist

Asian eyes can be quite challenging when it comes to makeup, especially when doing a smokey eye on mono lids.  

Most are afraid to use too much dark eyeshadow or too much eyeliner because it will make your eyes look even smaller.  

But if done right, a dark smokey eye can look super sexy & sultry and definitely enhance the shape of Asian eyes.👌

Before & After – Edmonton Boudoir Makeup & Hair Styling

Another before & after of my beautiful client!

Hair & Makeup by me.

I filled in her brows just a bit to add shape and to frame her eyes better.  She opted for no false lashes; I did a light smokey eye with lots of eyeliner to make her eyes pop.  Minimal blush because her cheeks are already naturally rosey.  Fresh faced and oh so pretty!

Finally My Turn! – Edmonton Boudoir Photo Shoot

It’s midnight and I’m sitting here packing for tomorrow’s boudoir shoot…I’m so excited!!  Colorful bras, a zillion panties, garter belts, thigh high stockings and a pair of sexy Louboutins.  #allagirlneeds

This isn’t even half the stuff!  I really don’t know what to bring so I’m gonna bring everything!  lol  I still have clothing items to pack, accessories, more shoes, jackets, etc.  Yikes.  hahah we’ll see tomorrow.

For the past 2 years I’ve done makeup and hair for so many clients for their boudoir/beauty shoots and now it’s finally my turn!  As a makeup artist I’m there for the getting ready part, and I see all the ‘behind the scenes’ stuff going on and it always looks so fun and I’ve always always wanted to do a boudoir shoot myself.  I also see most of the photos when they’re done and honestly each and every one of them are so beautiful, such a work of art.  I knew one day I’d do this but I’ve always put it off for some reason and now it’s finally time!!  I can’t wait!

I will update more next time with how I prepared for this shoot (makeup,etc) but now this girl needs all the beauty sleep she can get, good night!!

 

Mature Beauty – Edmonton Makeup Artist

Makeup for mature women can be tricky.  There’s a fine line between too much makeup and too little makeup.  Too harsh or not enough.  With age comes wrinkles, undereye circles, thinner lips, droopy eyelids, etc.  But there are tricks to diminish the not so goods and enhance the goods.  As seen here on Marlene.  She looks fabulous and I want to look like her when I’m older!!  This is beauty at it’s finest; and age ain’t nothin’ but a number!  🙂
