Not A Tutorial On Makeup Brushes: You Have Them, You Just Don't Know What They Are For?

Dilemma # 1: I have these many brushes (umm..got them as a gift), I use that one brush, the bushy one for blusher, and that flat, thin, one for eyeshadow. The rest, I just play with them or use them to clean my keyboard. Urgh.

Do you happen to have the same problem? You have all these brushes but don't know what's it called and what they are used for?

Read on.

Note: This is not a tutorial on make-up brushes. I know you have them already, maybe 12, 16, 24 or 30 pcs of them--but you don't know where and when to use them. So I'm here to remind you what those bushy, angled, flat, brushes are for :)

I am no PETITE woman--that, is one thing that I am not ashamed about. But there are times I wished I was, especially seeing all these Lipsy Dresses. Lipsy what?!

For those who aren't that much fashion-savvy...Lipsy is a young fashion brand famed for statement party dresses as seen on countless celebrities. It's kind of like more affordable than the Herve Leger.

Last Friday, we were very happy that our photoshoot was graced with the presence of Yahala Fashion's very own Ms. Karen and her husband, Ibrahim :)

Read on to know more and see photos of what we came up with!

A beautiful smile makes the day brighter is a highly used phrase that explains the importance of having beautiful teeth. And because I do believe in this adage, I've happily strutted my happy feet to a photoshoot for one of Dubai's newest and state-of-the-art dental care clinic.

Glad to have been part of this project as HMUA, and worked with one of the prettiest faces in Dubai, Olga Oslina.

Stay tuned for the photos and for the official banner and posters that will be all over Dubai :)


Bonne Nuit Ladies!

Show 'em your killer smile :)


XOXO,
