Hello lovelies!
 
Not too long ago, I had the honor of doing makeup for New Classics Studios for their latest editorial shoot. For those of you who are curious, check out the link! The talented Alyssa from the Ordinary People blog and her team's got some pretty awesome stuff for you people to check out! Here are a couple of my favourite shots!
 
So for this look, the focus is on looking natural, so any eye makeup is kept to a bare minimal using nude colors only. Contour was focused at the hollows of Lauren's cheekbones and temples, and lip color was kept a natural shade. Oh and here's a makeup tip for all you lovely people out there. For natural foundation application, the trick is to use a sponge instead of a brush. Soak up a makeup sponge with water, then squeeze out the excess water. You will find that your foundation will apply much more thinner, be more blendable, adhere to your skin better, and will actually look like natural skin (instead of looking cakey).
 
Enjoy the photos, everyone! Alyssa and her crew did such a fabulous job!
Oh, and PS: Check out this link to see the videography by Eric Yun to the shoot!
 
Love,
Carmen
