We are not prefect

Flaws

We all have flaws. Let it be on our face or body or in our character as a person. We are not perfect. But on our part, we deal with facial imperfections.  

Since I have become a makeup artist, we are trained to get familiarize with facial imperfection.  As a result, I have developed a bad habit. Whenever I’m with friends or meeting new people, I tend to look and study their face. Usually, it will take me one or two minutes to point out a few flaws. I just can`t help it. Isn’t it terrible?

Scientifically, a prefect face is defined as having symmetrical face. Which means one side of your face should be the same as the other. Unfortunately, most Asians generally have asymmetric face. For example, one most common flaw is, one eye is smaller than the other. You might be laughing at it when you`re reading this, but in our dictionary, it’s a big deal. We will be obsessively trying our very best to correct it with optical illusions by using eyeliner, eye shadow, eyelid tape or eyelashes. Exactly how we do it, it’s a trade secret…. :)

what to expect when you`re in the hands of a professional

 

 

Throughout the years as makeup artist, i realised there`s a recipe for satisfied clients. The key to it is Chatting.

Through the chats that we had, i can more or less gauge my clients` preference. But sometimes most clients have the misconception of since we are the professionals "whatever we do, it will be lovely la". well, ya, its true :) but there`s more to it.

Everybody has preferences.e.g. i might like oranges, you might not. I love to snack on donut (mmmm...donuts), but you choose bananas.

You get what i mean?

So dear future clients, the best way is to think of us as your hands that materialize your idea of beauty. Obviously, if your idea stray too far away from "beauty", we`ll put you on a leash :)

For example, "i wanna eat donuts, but i`m afraid of getting fat". I`ll suggest you to order an organic, less sugar less fat donuts with hazelnut flake as topping instead of jam (if there`s such a thing)

See, you`ll still able to have your braided fringe but i`ll use it to cover your high forehead.

flower power

 

 

 I`ve always love using real flowers as hair accessory on my bride`s wedding. For this shoot, i`ve used

"Triple Rose".

It exudes a sense of elegance and playful-ness at the same time. Not to mention the scent! it was soothing during the shoot,talk bout aromatherapy :)

If you guys wanna use real flower on your wedding day, but not the "overly used" ROSE, eustoma is another ideal option. It has different colours on the same stalk! another thing about eustoma is each stalk has around6-7 bulbs plus it is very affordable!

Talk to your makeup artist about using real flowers on your special day. Bcuz some flowers aren`t really suitable for weddings.
