Full face on mature asian skin

                               Party makeup with soft smokey eye and nude lip

SECRET TO PERFECT SKIN LESSON DONE: Very dry and dehydrated skin. She came with her skin flaking, very dry and dehydrated. I used the whole Bobbi Extra range, Extra treatment lotion which gives so much moisture to the skin, closing pores and keeping the hydration into the skin, Extra repair serum which goes straight through the third layer in the skin and repairs it in hydration, Extra repair eye cream and Extra repair moisturising balm with SPF25, which apart from giving to a dry skin everything it needs, they're anti ageing, sunscreen and they've got the primer on them. 

At this point I like putting lip balm on, so by the time to apply the lipsticks the lips are nice and moist. After this 4 steps of skincare routine the skin appearance changes completely, looking plump, moist, bright and much younger, the feeling of the skin is obviously much nicer, and then the makeup is gonna just blend amazingly and look like your skin, no like makeup. And then obviously under eye corrector and concealer, a moisturising foundation like the Intensive skin serum foundation, which gives more moisture, energises and protect the skin with SPF40, the tiniest amount of setting powder pretty much in the centre of the face to set the makeup and take off the extra shine, her natural bronzer in all the edges of her face and on cheekbones and eye lids, and a creamy blusher, to keep the apple cheeks glowing and give a lift to the face. The skin lesson would stop here, but I wanted to finish her up defining her brows a tiny bit, just feeling in the gaps in the right places, and using a quite blue pink lipstick to complement her eyes and make her skin brighter. She walked in on counter with a serious dryness issue and left with the healthiest and more radiant skin, and the perfect shape and colouring for her complexion.

Myself by me

                                            The inspiration came from colour and texture

A GOOD MAKEUP ARTIST WILL USE A THOUSAND THINGS ON YOUR FACE AND YOU WONT SEE ANY, ALL YOU WILL SEE ITS A PERFECT BLEND OF COLOUR AND TEXTURE

First wedding I did in London

She was my client at Selfridges, she brought her friend to the counter to see how I was doing the makeup and be able to recreate it... By the time I was applying the foundation they were asking me to please come and do my makeup in the big day

Above all she wanted to be the most natural as possible, she never wears foundation and her skin is normal to dry so I decide to go for the Extra tinted balm, the glowing super hydrating tinted moisturiser with Spf 25 for dry skin, to give the coverage that is missing I set it with the Weightless powder foundation, that it'll give you a tiny bit more coverage without being powdery, face shaping with her natural bronzer and then again thinking in the glow I've used Fresh Melon pot rouge, the creamy blusher that absolutely blends in the skin and give the most healthy finish.

Eyes contoured in warm browns with a thin layer of sparkle eye shadow, and brows filled in super lightly.

The lightest nude she can go for, a beige lipstick works amazingly softening even more the whole makeup, which is finished with a bit of highlighter.

You guys can judge for her full smile,

More Halloween makeup <3

This time my friend, the artist Alex Mercurio turned up at Selfridges on the Bobbi´s counter 

to have his Halloween makeup done by me.

He was hosting a party in Soho that night so the makeup requires long wearing.

I choose all the long wearing products I could:

Long wear even finish foundation

Long wear cream shadow and cream sparkle shadow

Long wear gel liner 

Creamy matte lipstick 

Bobbi´s ART STICKS painting is so playful

(This lipstick actually last quite a lot considering how amazing it feels on the lips)

(Really so bold colours, a lot of pigment and a beautiful texture)

She was going to her graduation, it was a really important day for her, and she knew exactly what she wanted to have done, a statement contouring. Obviously she came to Bobbi so she wanted to be natural, but without being soft. I literally sculpted her whole face, and highlighted it. Filled in the gaps on brows but left them quite soft as they were strong already, did the eyeliner outside and inside, in the waterline. Contour her eyes with eye shadows first and then with highlighter, and lips are done with lip liner, lipstick and gloss.

Don't you think her skin in the pic looks like it has been retouched with photoshop? Obviously it hasn´t, the finish was that smooth.
