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.

Colour Analysis: Choosing the right make-up for you

There are a lot of factors to consider when choosing your make-up but the most important factor in my opinion is being able to choose the right colour and shade. If your base make-up such as your foundation isn’t the correct shade for your skin, it can throw off your entire look. When considering shades for yourself, knowing your undertone is crucial because as I said in my previous article “your undertone is what determines what colours and shades look best on you.” Warm toned women are women with yellow, golden or peach undertones. You look best in gold jewelry. Gold, Copper, Bronze, Earth Tones and Orange-reds are your complimentary colours. In this case your foundation should be Yellow or Peach based; therefore look for shades with a ‘W’ in the name (E.G. Buff 6W). Warm shades lipstick, blush and/or bronzer to look for are peaches, peachy pinks, oranges, corals and orange-y reds. Cool toned women are women with pink, red or blue undertones. You look best in silver jewel...

My addiction (make-up haul)

Since school is out and there’s no traffic, I've had extra time to browse around beauty supply stores before and after work (don’t ask lol). So far this week I’ve been able to pick up a few things that I’ve been meaning to get for a while now. I haven’t gotten a chance to use any of these babies yet but I promise as soon as I do I will post my reviews. NYX Mosaic Powder Blush in Café – I saw this and instantly fell in love.  I love that this is mild and not too pigmented, it’s perfect for giving me that gorgeous glowing finish that I’m obsessed with. NYX HD High Definition Eye Shadow Base – I came across a review about this particular product on youtube and decided to give it a try. I haven’t gotten the Urban Decay Primer (that everyone has been raving about) as yet so I would use this in the interim. Milani Lipstick in the colour Sweet Nectar – This a bright orange lip colour that I kept putting off getting, not too sure why though because orange is one of the ...
