Hand painting - 30 Dec 2012

Last night was extremely chilly outside and I chose to stay at home and watched TV instead of going out.

However, my hands were itchy again and wanted to have some colours on while nothing really interested on TV before the Master Chef program. Lol  So I did two quick hand paintings and probably these two will be my last painting in 2012 hahaha.  I am here wishing you have amazing 2013 year coming and I am sure I will do more different makeup and painting things in the brand new year.
I am looking forward to find out my mystery future and hope I can do even better than 2012.

Once again, happy new year to you all and if any makeup/ body painting enquiries, please feel free to let me know (makeupartist.kkl@gmail.com).  xoxo

My first trial dragon paint

During Xmas night, I bet many people went out or stay with family/ lover/ friends to spend the Xmas night together.  For me, I would prefer a quiet night home coz I am not fully recover from awful stomach-ache and I am not a big fans in crowded area either.
Anyhow, I suddenly wanted to draw a dragon on my left hand so here is my first trial dragon paint for my Xmas night.  I think I can do better next time, so stay tune!!! :)

My Causal Look for going out

Recently, I like doing simple causal makeup for myself before going out instead of big smokey eyes style.  Well I guess sometimes I wanna be simple like everybody else.  Although that is causal makeup, the eyes area is one of important part I am focusing on.  I used earth tone light eye-shadow with blended black eyeliner (I used pencil version) which can blend easily also white sliver eye-shadow at front to pop out the eyes and make the eyes shaper in the total look.  Finally, I just applied a bit wing end of the eyeliner to create "cat eyes" version with a pair of natural false eyelashes.
Hope you guys like that and Merry Xmas to you all in advance!!!
If you have any questions, feel free to drop me a line "makeupartist.kkl@gmail.com".

Simple look for going out - 19 Dec 2012

Yesterday, I did a simple makeup look before I go out for outjob and dinner with a friend afterwards. It was good and nice time to meet a very sweet client but the client prefers not disclosing her photos public so I need to accept and protect my client.  Therefore, sorry about that no outjob photos here for your reference guys but I am posing the makeup I did myself for making up.  Hope you all like it.
I used very natural false eye-lashes and earth tone eye-shadow also black eye gel on the upper inner eye-line and white colour lower water line to make the eyes even shaper because the eyes makeup is the very important one apart from the base/foundation I did.

For the face, I did very light orange cheeks and a bit shading and the lips I used a sweet pink lips-glossy which close to my lips colour.  P.S. if you wanna do some similar look, remember the shading and blush should not be too intense.

Feel free to let me know if you have any makeup enquiry (makeupartist.kkl@gmail.com).

Have great day to you all and Merry Xmas in advance.

P.S. Xmas look will be coming shortly, stay stunned guys. XOXO

Makeup outjob for a wedding MC - 13 Dec 2012


Today, I did a makeup and hair for a very nice and sweet girl who will be a M.C. for a wedding tonight at InterContinental hotel.

She did not want to wear heavy makeup tonight so I used earth-tone colour for eyes with natural false eyelashes plus sweet orange colour on cheek, it is not only can pop-out the shape of face with elegant feeling also will not be too innocent sweet. For the lips, I just used pink lips-glossy to light-up the whole look.  For the hair, I did side up-do to make it very simple but still have the elegant style.

Take a look of the photos, isn’t she look generous as whole package? Hey guys, I hope you like it.

What a busy Sunday - 2 Dec 2012 - Part One

Bridesmaids makeup outjob

What a early up Sunday that I got up at 5:30am in the morning to get ready for bridesmaids makeup outjob at Mandarin Oriental Hotel, Hong Kong. Although it was very struggle getting up in such cold and wet morning, I told myself that I have to up or that gonna be late.  I don't want to be late so up and managed as my schedule.  I got to the hotel before the call-time for waiting and starting my Sunday.

Well, it was a little bit unexpected rush and I did not have time to take as much photos as I can for the bridesmaids makeup I did but herewith some for you guys. I glad I managed job done before the grooms and grooms-men.

Bridal makeup guideline


Recently, I saw quite a lot of wedding advertisings and photos from different channel that make me to write this article about bridal makeup guideline. Hopefully that can give you a little bit hints to make the best of you in your big day, I believe that probably one of the most memorable and important day of any couples’ life, especially the bride with essential appropriate makeup on the wedding day. Let’s look at some tips to help you out from stress and panic about being look better than ever.

Last week, I talked to two of my colleagues that the brides are always be the spot at any wedding which was no offence to any grooms out there. It is because the wedding dresses, accessories, beautiful makeup and hair, all those elements are so much easier to catch the audiences’ eyes and cameras on the bride. I think none of women wants to ruin such precious moment by carrying inappropriate look.  Hence, I suggest the makeup should be expressed the natural beauty of bride which can be long-lasting after years to look back those photos.
Furthermore, I am not recommended brides to change lots makeup during the big day because that will look very thick of the base and affect the skin also reduce the interaction time with audiences who want to share your happiness.  Always should be remembered “Less is More” which is absolutely right from my personal view. Therefore, don’t be too greedy and change makeup frequently that day, it should have a little bit touch up with powder once in awhile and I think 3-4 different looks are maximum.

Please do try to follow below tips to make you the most beautiful bride on the special day.
1.      Start taking care of your skin at least 3 months before the wedding day. Try your best to have facial once a week at least apart from your regular daily skin care steps (cleansing/ exfoliating/ toning and moisturizing).  For the exfoliating, that should be once or twice a week. To ensure you have enough sleep, eat healthy and regular exercises which is not only can help stimulating metabolism, also good body shape.

2.      The makeup base is very important for the day, you should choose a long-lasting foundation and apply it very lightly instead of using water base or mineral base which all wear off in couple hours or even less during summer weather.  To have a natural clean beauty look, the base is always come first so really should try to use long-lasting and oil-free matte foundation.

3.      During the day, I recommended to use natural makeup but that is not meaning not applying any colours after foundation.  What I mean is to apply light makeup and try to focus on one part of face. For example, it either focuses on eyes or cheeks or lips makeup, you can’t put same colour proportion on each area.  However, the evening look should be a little heavier than normal because of different lighting and flash lights of cameras.  The makeup colour normally has gone around 20-30%.  So go a little more liberal with blush, pick a slightly darker shade for eye shadow (might with some sliver/white/glitter if suitable but depends on the bone structure of bride) and be ever so slightly bolder with lipstick but as said, try not to focus more than one part.
