Filed under Lipstick Videos

*Again… the spammers won’t leave me alone. Stupid spammers!*

This is a red lipstick look that you can wear during the day. It is casual, light and fun! I wear red lipstick during the day when I need a bit of a pick-me-up or just need to feel a bit special!

I’m going to also upload a video, hopefully by the end of the week on how I wear red lipstick when I go out at night.

Thanks again for all your comments and your support. I really appreciate it!

Formal Hair Soft Curls Tutorial- Ask Me Makeup

September 21, 2007 by admin  
Filed under Makeup Videos

Hello again, everyone!

So as promised, I’m showing you how I did Summer’s hair for the Classic Bridal Makeup Video uploaded earlier this week.

I’ve decided, since I get so many questions about hairstyles I’ve done, or my own hair, that I will record whenever I do my model’s hair and upload those videos too!

Have a beautiful and fun weekend!

P.S. I forgot to mention in the video that the great thing about rollers is that it doesn’t take too long to put in, and you can go about doing other things while you wait for the hair to set. For those people who are interested in how I do my own hair, I don’t use rollers like this for everyday. I’ll still do a vid on my hairstyle.

Music Used in This Video:
* Black Coffee- Peggy Lee
* Unforgettable- Nat King Cole

Audrey Hepburn Breakfast at Tiffany’s Makeup- Ask Me Makeup

August 22, 2007 by admin  
Filed under Makeup Videos

My favourite makeup look of all time is Audrey Hepburn in Breakfast at Tiffany’s and Elizabeth Montgomery in Bewitched the TV series.

The makeup is retro, with the full false eyelashes, but the rest of the makeup is minimal and natural.

This look will also suit just about every face and eye type! Whether you’re Asian, European, Eurasian… etc

I hope you enjoy the video!

Victoria’s Secret Inspired Makeup Tutorial- Ask Me Makeup

Filed under Makeup Videos

This is a Victoria’s Secret inspired look. I particularly love the 2006 show at the Kodak Theatre…. especially Australian model, Miranda Kerr.

This is my take on the makeup for that show. I do believe the girls in the show are wearing purples, but to suit my model’s complexion I went for silver and grey.

Also meet Summer, my beautiful model! You’ll be seeing more of her soon.
