Covers

This month, i've done some cover shoots for Candy and Seventeen Magazines.
I think it helps to keep me feeling young, working with these celebrities...
I focused on doing light, and natural makeup... which is a good thing. The editors and stylists for both mags asked for that look. Maybe that way, we get to remind the "PROMMERS" and other teen agers that the best way to look pretty is by not covering the face with TONS of cosmetics.







Candy: Nicole Uysiuseng














Candy Prom Special: Lauren Young





















Seventeen: Shaina Magdayao















Here are some of the products I used to achieve these looks...

Benefit Blush in Georgia



Mac Blush in Fleur Power



Benefit Lipgloss in Corsage




Benefit creaseless in birthday suit



Benefit Lipgloss in Kiss me

project Teresa

today, i did teresa's herrera's makeup(who by the way really got me so interested in yoga trance, im thinking of joining her classes one of these days. it looks fun! but hard :p ). it was for the cover story of a magazine focused on sports... i think it's for free though. it's a pretty cool magazine. i'll post more pix + the scanned copy when the issue comes out...... i'm actually getting a lot of ideas about freemags and stuff... don't wanna tackle them yet... soon maybe.

anyways, it was a relaxed shoot. working with teresa and edsel, the photog was light and breezy. music was awesome... and very few people involved, which made working feel so much like just hangin out... By the way, i got to use the lipgloss that i had bought the other day, and again... i sooooo love it. ;-)

i'm thinking, i really wanna do more editorials and fashion shoots. I know they don't make as much moolah than advertising but i really miss the "GLOSS" in glossies... its where i started loving my kind of job... up to this day, i realized, it's what i really, really l-o-v-e.

meg girl of the month

yey!!! just grabbed this teaser from the meg website. haven't seen the actual mag yet but im pretty excited to see it...Yes, Heart Evangelista is Meg's MARCH '08 covergirl.
hearty heart... pretty girl. i always enjoy doing this girls make-up. she has turned 23 last feb 14. Can say she has bloomed to be a very bee-yoo-ti-ful lady. And has matured a lot, i can see. when i think of the first few times i did her makeup 5 or 6 years ago, there's been a big positive change in her... physically, mentally, emotionally. All for the better. I'm really happy for her and echo.


Few days after our shoot, she had her birthday special in ASAP, and again did her make. ;) i was backstage when they did the number so i didn't really see how it looked like on tv(our monitor backstage was soooo tiny :-s. It's all good though, baby D texted me that Heart looked so radiant. hehehe. Love your own baby's work, huh? Well, a lot of other people saw it and heard Heart thank me on TV for her makeup (you're welcome love marie!). a lot of people texted in... All positive feedbacks so far... soooo... good! =p
