What are the major beauty trends for Summer 2017?
Fresh, soft and light! Your skin should glow, not be overdone or over powdered.
What do you love most about makeup?
It gives you confidence and makes you look beautiful. It can hide your flaws and enhance your features all if done in the right way.
Biggest Summer makeup mistakes women make?
Most women use over the top shiny highlighters on their face. It’s hot and humid, so avoid that at all costs.
How do we avoid our concealer being exposed when we take flash camera photos?
This will happen when you use a wrong selection of concealer. Always match your skin and don’t go a shade lighter.
What lip and cheek colours should we opt for during warmer months?
Choose soft colours for sure. From MM makeup you can pick up beige or shell colour, which gives a very nice peachy finish.
What is your signature style and how does it set you apart from other makeup artists?
Defined eyebrows definitely not black, and a soft look is my signature style. I also use my MM makeup, which is of course different.
Easiest way to turn a day look into something that works for night?
You can try making lips dark and using a brush to make the eye socket a bit dramatic.
