Welcome again!
A photoshoot I wanted to do for a while, mainly because I wanted to try my skills in classic Arabic Makeup. My stunning friend Davina agreed to be my model and make her up Asian style for the first time ever :) I was very excited to be able to work with such a beautiful face, I have planned the makeup and hair before, as I've seen the outfit about a week before we did the shoot.
I wanted to do a classic Arabic makeup - dramatic, with colours on eyes matching the dress (lengha, actually!). I am extremaly happy with the results, it came out stunning with a bit of a vintage twist - this is what I like :)
I will pop in makeup list tomorrow if you would like more details, it's always a very creative process, which means, basically, a mess (makeup everywhere), so I need to go back to studio with pen and paper and note what I have used (lack of time, sorry) :)
You have those stunning pictures for now guys - enjoy!
Ask questions, if you have any, I will be writing a short article on Arabic ~Makeup soon for those who would like to know the main principles (sticky tape shabang and all that :p).
