One Day Makeup Workshops

The workshops were absolutely fabulous. Thanking everyone who made this possible. Look out for the pictures and Mandeville look out for Pretty Faces. below is a message from one the participants.

"I enjoyed the workshop, it was informative and very enlightening. I tried some of the steps you guys taught me, the transformation was 'Very evident" , I highlighted my eyes (the brow bone), used my colours properly and improved on the application of my foundation (wet the sponge). P.G., I got rave reviews on the overall look! Who knew"

All Day Makeup, long lasting makeup tips

Long Lasting Foundation Tips

• Apply foundation 10 min. after moisturizer. If you don't allow the moisturizer to absorb into the skin, your foundation will wear off in a matter of hours

• ALWAYS use a powder to set the foundation. Take your powder compact with you to do touch ups throughout the day.

• For lasting foundation, blot your makeup with a paper towel throughout the day to remove excess oil. You can also use makeup blotting sheets.

• If you're not sure what shade foundation you are, go with one shade lighter than you think. Use a powder to darken and contour the face. Powder will wear off, foundation shouldn't. By using a lighter foundation and a darker powder, you'll avoid the blotchy look when the makeup starts to wear off.

· Use a makeup primer. Foundation Primers extend your makeup application by hours

Smudge Proof Eye makeup

· You need to give a base coat of foundation and powder for the eye makeup to adhere to. This will double the staying power of your eyeshadow.

· Use a an eye makeup primer. Eye Primers extend your makeup application by hours

· Use water proof eye make up

· Liquid eye liner has 4 times the staying power than pencil eye liners.

Lipstick Tips

· By applying foundation before lip liner and lipstick, you will achieve a longer, lasting coverage

· Use a lip liner to keep your lipstick in place.

· After applying foundation and liner to lips, dust with loose powder, then apply lipstick.

This my airbrush makeup system. I use this whenever i am doing a makeup application for someone especially weddings.



These are some of my absolute favourite products the mary kay mascara and liquid foundations.

These are mark lip gloss key rings, these are really cute and convenient. I usually give these away to brides as a little token. :-)


This is the costal scents mineral foundation primer absolutely perfect.

This is one of my eyeshadow palette the costal scents 88 palette, its really great if you are just starting out as a makeup artist. Its a good palette to own.


These work miracles Mary Kay time wise cleanser and moisturizer. The eye makeup remover in the middle is the best.

Queen of Blending

I got an email from a friend with a video this girl Lauren who calls herself the Queen of Blending! the video was really funny, her doing a makeup tutorial for april fools Well, I must say even though she purposely did try to make it up a horrible makeup it turned out good to me. She has a myspace page and a youtube page with 98 TUTORIAL videos! I just got done watching some of her videos and what I like best is that there are A LOT of videos where she only uses like 2 shadows, but she's able to create a look that looks like she used about 5 different shadows!

Her collection is completly out of this world she has literally got a bigger variety of make-up then any MAC store has at one given time! She has EVERY brand from Wet n Wild to MAC to Nars! She's been collecting make-up since 1999! above are some of her work. Below is link for the funny video.

Ladies this is my new favorite product the Mac Mineralize skin finish powder it is used for setting foundation with powder can look so powdered doughnut-like. That's why this baked, slightly luminescent, light-coverage powder is a keeper. It's matte enough to take away shine, but the bit of sheen makes it look more skin-like -- and no, it's not shimmery enough to highlight imperfections (I know that's what you were thinking).

Hi everyone, i have been wanting to write like forever and just got around to do so, i have been so busy with work and all so here we go I wanted to share with you my new favorite lipstick. Yes I said LIPSTICK! I rarely wear lipstick because I rather have glossy sexy lips but I found out lately how a matte bright lip can look so glamorous! I have been wearing all kind of matte lipstick with chestnut, nightmoth or currant lipliners but my favorite of all is the bright red MAC Ruby Woo! I wear it with nightmoth liner by drawing a very thick line around my lips and then blending the line with lipstick. I usually do not wear a lot of color on my eyes This lipstick looks good on any complexion, if you are light skin, you can use it without any lipliners or with MAC Vino liner. Other nice matte lipstick to try from MAC are:

• Spirit (beige)

• Velvet Teddy

• So Chaud

• Kinda sexy

Remember these lipsticks look better worn matte…so no need to add a gloss…
