baby-skin lady

I got this copy from our print producer anthony (thank you for being so thoughtul and sending this!)...

Johnson's Body Care

Her name is Karen Lima, I remember Francis Abraham (who is ever so hyper by the way...)our photographer, calling her boom boom girl because the whole time she had to keep on moving for the shoot, it was only BOOM BOOM POW by Black eyed peas that made her move exactly how the art director wanted her to. haha. talk about LSS!

 here's how the team looked like:

                

  me, francis, anthony, karen, mario, jake, tynna, ana k

*************************************************************************************************

 Regarding her look, i made sure her skin all over the body appeared flawless. Of course, i order to achieve that, i had to use my powers = TSZ AIRBRUSH FOUNDATION in #5 Bubble Tea.  haha

 

So we sprayed away... And when the foundation dried up, what could be more perfect than... tada: BENEFIT's BATHINA.

new beauty

I got to work with this beautiful face yesterday... I can't wait for the story to come out on april...

I was really lazy the whole day so i didn't even bother to bring my camera...
which, i regret. 

This Up and Coming model has the kind of beauty that I'm really fond of... great skin,

amazing bone structure... I just love her face. I'm looking forward to see more of Diana...
She has this character that i'm so sure will really make her stand out among most new faces around....

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.

101 ideas

sometime last year about this time and month(feb/mar 07), i was shooting for a fashion ed for MARIE CLAIRE philippines. the reason why i remembered is because i was browsing through my old photos in my hard drive i came across these outtakes. Her name's julianna(our brazilian model)... i had so much fun bronzing her away. like i said yesterday, i miss doing these kinds of shoots and working with Giselle Go who by the way is now in Singapore starting her new challenge as the EDITOR IN CHIEF of Harper's Bazaar(Congrats Giselle!!! Break a leg!) Oh and of course working with Paolo Pineda is always fun! :)


 
these are the ones i took from my cam...

 
for that marie claire shoot, i used this adorable love of mine... BRONZE GODDESS... boy, i'd kill to be one... another genius invention from tarte... My friend shayne sarte bought this for me in sephora when she went to the U.S. november '06. I've had this baby for more than a year now. Can't believe how economical it can be... it takes a gazillion years to finish! I just love how it smells like tanning oil being applied on your skin while basking under the sun, lying on the sand... on the beach... hmmmmm... i love how it's so easy to apply and it really does last long on the skin... no need for much touch ups... the longer it stays on the skin, the more natural it looks... i just love it. i think i'll wear it tomorrow, that way, i'd get more excited about the coming summer ;) yahu!
