We are so proud of ourselves and pray that God keeps us on the path to greatness.  It was incredible working with such a diverse and open minded group of true professionals that trusted us to do what we do, without restrictions and drama. The artist was JRandall with Poe Boy records, a total cutie and a certified star so ladies prepare yourself for a new heartthrob. Sensational director Wus Good’s vision was so clear and he turned out what I am sure will be an amazing video. We learned so much! like… who knew all of the work that goes in to the production of these things until you are on the set?!  Can I tell you Safia Michelle showed out on JRandall’s makeup?… child BOO!! Airbrush formula and some powder had his skin perfectly perfect =)  And I beat the models makeup into the ground, you hear me?! We couldn’t photograph everything for obvious reasons so Stay tuned for the video that we will post when it airs and more pic as they come! =)

“High Society” a Smartride fundraiser. We will be doing makeup for  still life models styled by the amazing Jamesson Beane of Dechos clothing.

The look will be 50’s classic with a 2010 spin. It’s going  be hott!

With 6 different designers I came up with looks that would be beautiful and effortless. I was happy to have Harriet Medrozo  assisting  she did an amazing job and kept her work area clean (10 pts) lol. The looks  needed to transition from soft, bronze, beach girl, into going out with my boyfriend i need to add a lil bit of  color  beautiful girl. We used some amazing products sent to me by Cover Girl, a skin primer, lipstains and these really smooth colorful eyeliners they worked amazing.

For the models with the darker lip, I wanted to make the look  a bit more daring/sultry the clothing was darker, yet colorful I thought a pop of deep burgundy plum on the lips( Cyber lipstick by MAC to be exact) would bring out the eyes, so not much  eye makeup would not be needed.  I used beautiful black,black liquid eyeliner, soft skintone shadows and matte cheeks,   the best mascara I’ve  ever ed used by Kiko cosmetics, perfect choices.

For hair these guys banged it out we had Abby from Alchemy hair salon ,  Sarah and Danielle of Renew Hair Salon Jesse Yager of Shag  Hair Studios… YOU BETTA WORK! I really loved the styles they did and they even threw in scarfs  and layered braids to give the looks more sophistication!

This was great fun and an amazing team of people to work with. hope to work with you all again.
