MY LAST POST?

OCTOBER WAS MY LAST POST??

OMG It has been quite a while and blogging really needs commitment!

I truly apologize for being quiet here as opposed to 
my Facebook pages that I often update on a daily basis.

I guess things might have been pretty crazy

towards the end of 2012 and all that END OF THE WORLD hype.

BUT NOT TO WORRY - I AM BACK PEOPLE!

Back with more positive outlook & wonderful things to share with everyone.

Starting off with this video tutorial just for YOU.

I noticed that I haven't really posted any vids on my blog 
so here's to a good start for 2013!

This is a Miss Universe 2013 inspired make-up look 
of the winning Miss USA - Olivia Culpo.

I hope you love it guys. 
Don't forget to lemme know what you think at the comment below.

Till next time,

XOXO

It's Official. My classmate is getting engaged!

I'm so excited!

It's really a great feeling when someone you've known from way back when

gets married.It kind of gives me flashbacks to to the good ol' school days.

Never in a million years did I imagine that I would be doing her makeup

on her engagement/wedding day!

 

Anyways, here is the lovely Siti Asmah before & after.

Basically she wanted a simple makeover for her intimate engagement ceremony

at home so I did a very minimal day look for her without going overboard.

She basically doesn't use so much makeup so I understand where she is coming from

- In other words, nothing too va-va-voom or unrecognisable.

 

Here are more photos of her after makeup.

To achieve this look, I did neutral tones for her eyes and cheeks.

The emphasis was more on contouring her face to give her a

 slimmer look not forgetting to give her smoother skin.

A touch of pink was added to her lips to complement her lavender outfit.

Simple Updo since she will be wearing a veil.

 

Congratulations Girl!

Looking forward to doing your wedding in December!

 

Till next time,

 

XOXO

Pricilla Verus' Wedding Story featuring Mon Amour Collection

I'm Back!

Hope everyone's doing fine at the moment.

Anyway, here's another wedding makeover that I did recently for a friend's sister.

 

Her name's Priscilla Verus who hails from Penampang 

and here is her before photo and after photos.

For her Solemnization Ceremony, I broke away from the norm

and gave her smokey bronze and gold eyeshadow to define her eyes

and balance out the uneveness of her eyelids.

Her lips and cheeks were kept minimal to not overwhelm her entire look.

 

Here's a picture of Pricilla complete with sideswept updo.

 In the afternoon,

I retouched her makeup to complement her red gown at her Reception in KDCA.

I changed her lipcolor to red, enhanced her cheeks with a little bronze

and rearranged her hair into romantic sidecurls.

The next day,
I did another makeover for Pricilla during her 'moving out' ceremony
 which is a custom of the Kadazan people for the new bride to move in to her new home.
So for her third look, I did blue eyeshadow with
a touch of pink for her blush & lipstick look to match her second outfit.
Eyebrows were lightned to match her haircolor which was loosely curled.

Her first outfit was a modernized Kazadan & Lotud

inspired evening gown from my Mon Amour Collection 

which I made for the Unduk Ngadau DBKK Gala Night in 2011.

 Congratulations Pricilla & Husband!

Hope you like this post.
Till next time,

XOXO

Oh Marilyn, why are you so gorgeous?

 

Since we're on the topic of Marilyn,

here are some of my Top 3 personal favourite

celebrity transformations as Marilyn.

 

No.3

Blake Lively as Marilyn in a Gossip Girl scene.

 No.2

Fans of hit TV series SMASH will know this one! Katherine McPhee as Marilyn on Broadway.

 No. 1

Scarlett Johansson is the perfect actor to play Marilyn. Super Gorgeous!

 

I better start saving now &

find a way to get my hands on this when it comes out!

If any of you generous lovelies want to pass some my way,

you are most welcome.

 

Till next time lovelies,

XOXO!

Introducing the next Justin Bieber!

I know my brother is SOO gonna KILL me

 when he reads this title!

But anyways, recently I had the liberty to do some

laid back test shots for my younger brother - Ace

who is only 14 years old this year.

 

For those of you who've never met him,

he currently stands at about 165cm and maybe one day

could be a model. Who knows right? *wink*

 

He absolutely needs to work on his angles and

expressions for the time being.

Till then here is a compilation of

what he looks like now :
