• Arabic Inspired Make-up Look!

  I love to challenge myself. When those voices inside tell me I can’t, I practically shout back at them and say I can. Creating this look was one of those times. I tend to shy away from doing bold eye looks on myself as I never really feel they come out right. I have hooded…

• Holding back the years…beauty that can age you!

  I remember at 16 wanting to look 18 or maybe even 21. I was clueless about make-up back then but had some friends who with the swipe of a make-up brush or lipstick managed to achieve the coveted ‘grown and sexy’ look. You only have to look around nowadays to see young girls wearing a…

  I have a lot of make-up brushes! A lot! I also have a lot of big hoop earrings and handbags! My make-up brushes are slowly starting to take over those collections. My excuse? I need them for work. You build quite a brush collection as a Make-up artist. This is because you lose them (I…
