Halloween is a crazy time...

Being the only makeup artist in my house, I do get the responsibility of turning my house mates into dead cheerleaders, animals and the rest... Not Gunna lie it is fun.

Not for the faint hearted...

Makeup doesn't always have to be pretty... Some of the more exciting makeup I have created have been cuts and bruises. Things that's look like they should hurt, when really u don't even know they are there... This is something I created while I was bored sat waiting for a friend... She defo got a shock when she came in... Oops

Power in makeup...

Mac is a world wide known product that doesn't waist time with advertisements, it's celebrity endorsements gets them enough attention... With a range or colours and brushes this is the perfect brand to have in any makeup kit.. All to be found in stores and via www.maccosmetics.com
These are just a few of their amazing images that truly caught my eye...

Makeup for your alter ego...

Illamasqua is one of the top makeup brands about today with a range of colours it's perfect for any makeup look... These are a few images that inspire me. You can find all these and more by going to www.illamasqua.com

Let's all go to the circus

Circus themed makeup is usually so simple, so for this themed party I thought I'd jazz my friend up a lil will a re-invention of a mime...

We all remember PAC-MAN right??

So why not have it on your nails... Love a bit of creativity when it comes to nails. After all they are slightly boring, so why not jazz them up abit??

Feeling fruity... Watermelon nails will do nicely

Yes your seeing right... Watermelon nails, I know it's not spring yet but thought I'd start early with the warm summer feeling...

Poison Ivy..

This is a shoot i created for a friend who was creating a poison ivy theme... using real leaves helped a massive amount with this look as fake ones just kept falling off the face.. the red wig used also gave the image real depth...



Forest Frenzy...illamasqua inspired

This illamasqua inspired shoot was created for a project i was given in my 2nd year at uni. i decided to go for a autumn theme, which gave me the idea of forests and the colour scheme i feel works well with the chosen theme...



 As you can see some of the images do have the illamasqua logo on the image...

Broken Ballerina...

This image was for a dance portfolio for one of my friends, she wanted a range of different images showing the different sides she can express through dance but project them through makeup to create her portfolio... This one is the Broken Ballerina.

Simply paint clothes on...

This image i created was for a body art image... yes it may look like the model is wearing clothes, however, she is naked.. yes i said naked.

Having clothes painted on women have become popular within some magazines. for example Joanna Gair is famous for this body painting image.. and it doesn't take a genius to see why... amazing work.

The Human Zebra

This shoot was just for a bit of fun, styling from the zebra print and using lace on the face helped me create an almost 3D look.
Although making my model squeeze into that cat suit was the most fun I've ever had on a shoot...


Burlesque in all its glory...

These images were created in my first and second year at uni. Showing different sides to a burlesque look, i wanted to capture the true meaning of a burlesque makeup.
