Face Chart and Look for Fashion Shoot

Hi, I'm showing case of what I've done for a fashion shoot this coming Saturday. It is with the Grace again, they're doing outdoor shoots for Christmas!

Christmas definitely reminds me of GOLD color. So that is what I did with my face chart, gold... Then I added a very dark navy blue on the outer corners Purple lips, purple cheeks.
Yes! I did that face chart and yes, the brown marks around = my coffee stain D:

I tried that face chart I did on myself later. I went a little crazy on the gold color because I really love gold color and I'm just too excited I guess. =X

This is definitely not going to be the final look on our Grace! :) There will be changes here and there for sure, else no surprise right? :P

Stay tuned for more face charts like this! :D I'd also upload the photo of Grace wearing this when we're done with the shoot next week.
XOXO
(Please credit me when using my face chart though! Coffee stains shall not go to waste X= )

Photoshoot - Model's Look

Hello, I'm showing case of the makeup I've done on my beautiful models last week! :)

As mentioned, I did their makeup in the dark, so I really wasn't able to see well. D: Luckily their looks don't sway too far away from what I pictured!! :D

This is Grace, a very cheery, pretty girl. She already had a full face makeup on already that day. However, when I see her, she did not have much contouring done on her face. Neither did she had much blusher and eyeshadow color on. Well that means she might appear washed out/'flat' on photos. Which is not what we want because they're shooting for a blogshop collection! :)

What I did was to really just add on the bronzer and a little bit of blusher. I also darkened her eyeshadow. Since Grace doesn't have much double eyelid space, I tried to add on definition through creating a 'fake' crease, which is what you could see on her in the photo above.

Products used:
Eyes: Wet&wild eyeshadow palette - Comfort zone + Urban decay naked palette - Sin
Face: Canmake bronzer; can't remember the blush, I just grabbed a random one that day! Sorry!!
Lips: Revlon soft nude

Debby is a extremely kind looking lady! And I she really is alright! :D She had half face makeup done when I met her. Revlon colorstay foundation and some eyeshadow on.

Now I want her to look slightly fiercer, so I tried to create a little more arch on her eyebrow. Didn't do a super obvious change on her this time though because I didn't have the proper tool then. All I had was a brown powder and a very light brow pencil. (I went to this shoot last minute! So I only had a few items with me to work with!)

Also, Debby has a very slim face which makes her look really kind especially that she also have slightly droopy eyes. (Now don't get me wrong, Debby is extremely beautiful with no makeup on too!) So instead of contouring to make her face even skinnier, what I did was to contour upwards, that is to say, we make her face appear shorter/rounder.

As for her eyes, what I did was to really just bring the liner upwards so she'd look more confident. I also blend the eyeshadow upwards so she have a rounder eye shape.

Products:
Eyes: Wet&wild palette- Comfort zone
Cheeks: Canmake bronzer, her own blush, ELF studio blush - Twinkle pink
Lips: OCC liptar - Femme topped with Revlon colorstay lipgloss - Hotpink

Bernice is the only one who appeared with totally no makeup on. She is gorgeous! However, her skin is really pale when I see her in the dark. So the first thing I did was to find a foundation that is much darker than her, with a slightly orange undertone. I apply that on her jawline, and blended upwards. Also applied it beside her brows to create shadow. But the most important thing here is that I'm giving her a slightly sunkissed look. I also contoured her nose with that darker shade.

Bernice looks so sweet! And I really want to keep it. What I did was to thicken her brows slightly, giving it a little more arch. As for her eyeshadow, I tried to elongate her eye shape because her eyes is pretty big already! :D

As for her lips, Bernice told me she was afraid of bright colors. So I gave her one of the brightest colors I could find in my kit that day. :P And I told her she looked great with bright colors!

Products:
Eyes: Wet&wild palette - Blue Had Me At Hello
Cheeks: I mixed different shades of foundation for contouring; topped with a little bit of ELF studio blush - twinkle pink
Lips: L'Oreal Color Riche lipcolor - Volcanic, Sally Hansen Laqouer Shine lipgloss - Ginger

Another shoot with them coming next week! I'm definitely spending quite some time thinking of face charts/ louder look for them. Stay tuned okay! :D
XOXO

Makeup Ideas: Dark smokey/vampy eyes + Review: Ichikami shampoo

Showing case some of the looks I've done on my models recently!! :D

This is one of my favorite looks of all time! However, definitely not the most wearable look here. You'd scare people off literally! :P

Special thanks to my model, Bianche, and Jaiver as my photographer!

I love how Bianche looked in this photo. Very sexy, sensual, yet feminine.
BTW, guess whats up with the black background? :P Its me with my black blazer!!! Haha we were having this shoot outdoors actually. But I demanded for a black background. So I went behind Bianche with my black blazer, made Javier shoot it. Extremely happy with the effeect! :)

Products used:
Eyes: Maybelline Gel Eyeliner - Black; Any black eyeshadow, I can't remember which black I used; Foundation for the brow bone
Cheeks: Jemma Kid Show Stopper Water Resistant Bronzer; Milani Blush - Sunset Beach; The body shop luminizer
Lips: NYX Honey mixed with a little bit of concealer.

I hope you like this look as much as I do!

Next up, a short review on Ichikami Shampoo I got in thesamplestore order:
What I got was a 12g sachet; and it lasted me around 3 washes since my hair is pretty short. I love how this product smells! Really smells like Sakura home fragrance sold in Jupiter Fragrance store. Love love love it! Apart from the nice smell, it made me hair really clean as well. I didn't experience any itchiness or any more dandruff than what I'd get when I use anti dandruff shampoo! My hair felt soft and smooth as well.

Conclusion: Definitely getting this when if I'm going to Watsons! I am so happy I found this shampoo. X)

Anyway, stay tuned for tmr's post! Will be uploading the photos of the beautiful models I met during my last wk's photoshoot! :D :D
XOXO
