Dewy skin – My How To Guide

Dewy skin is super sexy and fresh… Love it or hate it – this look is everywhere. From catwalks to bridal inspiration – there is no escaping the dewy skin look right now and personally I am a massive fan… infact I am a little obsessed if truth be known. There is a fine line when creating this look between looking effortlessly fresh (like you have just been out on brisk walk) to just looking greasy. It’s my go-to look… It is my own go-to look these days and I am always getting compliments on my skin during my online...

Introducing Makeup Artist and Beauty Editor Gemma Clark

An introduction to Award Winning Makeup Artist and Beauty Editor Gemma Clark Just another “MUA”? No – and I hate that term… I was recently asked to write an article all about my brand. The Editor wanted me to share my story of how I became an award winning Makeup Artist and my career highlights. Have you ever tried to write about yourself? It’s so hard! You want to tell everyone all of the amazing things you get up to but without sounding like a brag-fest. It is a difficult task and one which took me a little while. Beautiful...

Hannah’s stunning autumnal bridal makeup

Back in October 2019… I first met Hannah for her bridal trial back in the summer of 2019. Hannah had great skin and really pretty eyes – she liked to wear makeup and was keen to make her eyes her feature for her bridal makeup. After discussing styles and tones, we decided on going with some beautiful autumnal inspired tones for her October big day. The look… Hannah already had really good skin so I really wanted to emphasise this with my signature glowing base. I prefer to get the radiance in the makeup from the skin prep...

Beautiful bronze bridal makeup

Bride Sophie’s brief When I met Sophie at her wedding trial, chatted about the kind of look she wanted – which like most of my brides – she wanted to look like an enhanced version of her natural self. As a new mum, Sophie wasn’t used to wearing a lot of makeup due and tended to stick to mineral makeup in her own personal makeup kit (which tends to be a common with makeup wearers who prefer the more natural look). Colouring and complexion Sophie’s complexion was naturally pale with beautiful freckles and she had great skin so I...

Get the look – nude cut crease glam

Do you love the cut-crease look? Some of the cut-crease looks you see on social media can very dramatic and bold but might not necessarily feel wearable for “most” people but the beauty of makeup is that it’s all about personal preference. If we all looked the same or liked the same things the world would be a very dull place. I prefer to create beautiful looks that “feel” wearable as well as looking beautiful too. So, this is my version of the natural cut-crease look as modelled by stunning Min Cai (represented by TTM Model Management). Preparation… Min’s skin...
