My Glam Photo-Shoot Experience




Hey everyone, since I started my blog I’ve had the opportunity to do two photo-shoots. This weekend I had the pleasure of working with photographer Nigel Reid of Frame photography. I am so excited; I had to share my experience. Nigel and I have been friends before he got into photography; he’s a very nice guy who manages to keep you’re shoot fun but professional.

My photo shoot was glam themed and included a few bikini shots as well. I was fortunate enough to have my hair styled by hairstylist Felicia Dos Santos (will put the link to her page below) and make-up done by the very talented Arlene Villarule (also linked below). My hair was styled without extensions as I’m wearing my hair in a short style at present. My make-up consisted of a black smokey eye with glitter and bright red lips.

This was not my first photo shoot; however it is the first one that I've had the ‘full works’ i.e. hair and make-up done. My experience was a fun one although I had the flu with fever and a runny nose, the day was a long drawn out, it left me tired at the end but I enjoyed every minute of it. I wouldn't trade the experience for the world. I can’t wait to share the shots with you guys. Above and below are some photos I took of my make-up with my phone during the the day (sneak peak).

I would like to thank everyone that was involved once more and hope that I can do this again soon. Thank you Nigel Reid, Arlene Villarule and Felicia Dos Santos and also thank you to my lovely cousin who accompanied me because I was sick.

Three must have beauty products this summer!

Garnier BB Cream & EOS Lip Balm #frontcamera #nofilter  It’s no surprise that I love makeup, so I’m always out looking for new products to experiment with. Two of these three products were introduced to me by my girlfriend and the third one is just something that’s been trending a couple years now. I came across the first product while at my girlfriends’ house, as y’all may know I’ve been doing the hair extensions thing a few months now. I love my extensions light weight & ‘flowy’ so I avoided putting oil based products in it, until I discovered KERATIN, Brazillian Tech by one ‘n only. I got it at pennywise & it was only $36.95. A coin size amount in the palm of your hands, rub it together & evenly distribute it through the hair and I instantly fell in love. It’s a treatment with pequi oil for straightened, permed or colour-treated hair so of course it can be used on your natural hair too. This literally gives my extensions life. I use it once every coup...

Mini make-up haul

Small make-up haul  Hey everyone! I've just started gathering products for my make-up kit and I went out on Saturday and picked up these little beauties *love struck smiley*. I got a chance to use everything so far so I just want to share with y'all my views. The L'oreal true match foundation in W6... umm not my favourite, it's a bit light for me which is weird since the W6 powder matches harmoniously to my skin. I'm hoping it's the tan I got from the beach last week and being out all day Saturday, will definitely give it another chance. Other than it not matching my skin tone it's perfect, it goes on smooth (with the correct brush of course, I used the MAC 188 foundation brush), it's lightweight, gives medium to full coverage and gives a nice 'glowy' finish. I love this foundation, I usually use MAC studio fix fluid but this is a nice cheaper alternative for everyday use. Milani Illuminating face powder in Hermosa Rose.. I cannot get en...

Simple Glam (Night out with the girls)

 Hey everyone, club season is back and in full swing in Trinidad and as opposed to carnival the fashion for ‘clubbing season’ as it’s fondly called is two very different things. Let me explain, carnival has a more casual fashion outlook mainly because most of the events are outdoor, the capacity of patrons at one event also the nature of a fete (live performances etc). Club fashion has more of a glamorous outlook because of its indoor nature consisting of ‘little black dresses’, skirts, blazers etc. My first after carnival outfit was this black and white, close-fitting, above mid-knee length, armhole, cotton dress. I immediately fell in love with it because I can dress it up or down. I like unique pieces but I absolutely love clothes that I can dress up or down. I paired it with black pumps (sorry I didn’t get a shot of them). I wore a pair of mid-size silver hoops, a silver ring, white & silver MK watch and a black clutch with silver lining. When going for a glam loo...
