Weddings and happy couples

I have been extreemly busy the last 2 weeks.  I have been working in Newcastle and York Bobbi brown stores and also done full makeup for 2 wedding parties.  I wish both couples all the love and happiness for their futures together and I loved every minuite spent with them on their special days.



I used a wide selection of products on Claire and her bridesmaids, I have listed them below

• Bobbi Brown Hydrating eye and face cream
• Bobbi Brown corrector in Bisque and Concealer in Warm Sand
• Bobbi Brown Foundation in Luminous moisturising formular in Warm Sand with Pale yellow loose powder
• Bobbi Brown Bronzing powder in Antigua with Bobbi Brown Blush in Tawney on the apples of the cheeks
• Bobbi Brown eye shadows in Champane quartz, Bronze and Chocolate on the brows
• Bobbi Brown creamy lip colour in Rose garden

Lucy is a very naturally beautiful woman who wanted to just enhance her natural features and look like she had no makeup on, Lucy has suffered with break outs and oily skin which she wanted controlled for her big day so again listed are the products which i used to provide her with a long lasting look for the whole day.

• Bobbi Brown Oil control lotion with Hydrating eye cream and Hydrating gel cream on the cheeks
• Bobbi brown concealer in porclain peach and creamy concealer in warm sand
• Bobbi Brown foundation stick in Sand with Pale yellow Sheer finnish powder
• Bobbi Brown bronzer in Antigua all over the face and concentrated on the cheeks
• Mac eyeshadows in Crystal Avalance all over the lid, Illegal Cargo on the lid and Bronze pressed into the socket line to add contour
• Bobbi Brown Lip colour in Sandwash Pink and Sandwash Pink Lipliner

I wish both Brides and their partners all the happiness for the future and I loved having such an important role in their day

Bobbi Brown Mineral Makeup

Bobbi Brown is renowned for her amazing skin correct foundation and this is no exception.  The powder is light and easy to pick up on either a face powder puff for a full coverage or with a face brush for a lighter coverage.  I expected to need to use a powder puff as i usually prefer a fuller coverage but i tried with my face brush first and was amazed with the finished result. 

Without Skin foundation mineral Makeup


I have extremely pale skin and I usually match up to porcelain foundation but believe it or not I am wearing Medium in this picture!!  The foundation comes in the same colours as the tinted moisturizers range.  As with all Bobbi Brown foundations the Skin Foundation Mineral Makeup is yellow based to blend the most natural with the skins natural undertone.

With Skin Foundation Mineral Makeup

I used Bobbi Brown Hydrating face cream and my corrector and concealer underneath the foundation and applied the powder over the top of both.  The staying power is great for everyday.  I applied this foundation on the train at 7am and endured a 2 hour train ride, worked a full day and another 2 hour train ride and I did not feel that i needed to touch up or reapply at any point throughout my day, I have fairly normal skin although it can be slightly dry at times so I cannot answer for oily skin but i am fairly sure that with the correct primer and moisturizer underneath the foundation would still wear extremely well.

The finished look

 The foundation contains Vitamin C & E Complex helps protect against skin-ageing free radicals.  Glycerin, Soybean Extract & Ceramides help condition, soften and smooth skin. Sodium Hyaluronate helps prevent dryness and cracking.

My First Post!

Hi all and welcome to my Blog! I am new to the blogging world but spend my free time researching and reading other Make Up Artists blogs and felt I should start my own as I have so much information to share!! I hope I receive a good following and an enjoyable in site into my growing career.

About me....

I am 24 years old and I am a Mummy to 3 amazing children.  Leo is 6 years old and football crazy, Gracie my little red head is 2 and already got a growing obsession with colour and art and my new addition is Elizabeth, She was born on the 19th April 2011, She has amazing long eyelashes and lots of hair..

I am still on maternity leave but when I am not I work as an Associate freelance artist for Bobbi Brown in York, I love my job so much and i work with some incredible artists and we learn so much from each other daily.  I have found that there is no better way to learn about make up application and techniques then working with different faces each day.  Each customer no matter what their age or skin type is a challenge and I find nothing more satisfying than teaching a woman (and men) how to look and most importantly feel their absolute best.  Through my job I have been extremely lucky to work with some incredible artists from the UK and America who have all worked alongside Bobbi Brown herself and also high profile celebrities.  I attend seasonal training every 3 months and also spend time in London at Estee Lauder head office were I receive support and constant refresh training.
