New Faces

photo-on-2010-06-07-at-1712

Crappers. I swear the new laptop and camera is bringing out the vanity in me. Taken with Photobooth earlier this the evening after a shoot for Sisters magazine.

Anyway, today’s shoot was great. It was at the homiest studio – Blink Studio. I also learnt a couple of things from the people i worked with today. It’s amazing how much we can learn from the people we meet. Oh and not to mention, we wrapped the set up pretty quickly. Everyone worked very well with each other :)

So the products used for the shoot are from Clio, a Korean cosmetics brand. I haven’t heard of this brand before, but their products are pretty good.

That’s their mineral blush. It comes with a very pretty packaging too. The floral design is drawn by a Korean artist. They also have this thing called the camouflage cream.

Apparently a lot of celebrities are using it and it’s very popular in Korea too. It looks super natural when applied on and best of all, it’s water-proof. Leslie the make up artist said celebrities use this a lot, and they can even go swimming and come out still looking perfect. In fact, better! Cause the camouflage cream will look more natural after perspiring.

This is Leslie.

It was so nice talking to him. Leslie travels to a lot of places like USA, Russia, Korea, Japan and whatnots for work. His wife is from Japan, and she and the kids are living at Japan.

Since Leslie was such an experienced person, i took the opportunity to ask him about the foreign culture and the places he visited. Well, he said that Russians are very beautiful people because they have very good skin and prominent bone structures. He even said that if they could speak English fluently, they would be like super maju haha!

As for the country Korea, the in thing now seems to be cat-eye look. So we included the smokey cat-eye look for the shoot. It’s very popular in Korea, all the girls are walking around with the cat-eye look! Koreans looove make up, but they don’t overdo it. They like it natural.

And as for Japan.. i guess it’s pretty obvious. The girls there are exactly like what you see in Japanese magazines. They’re super fashionable, inside out.

Leslie told me about a whole bunch of other stuff too, but it’s just too much to say it here!

Leslie and Wesley*

Apparently, they’re not associated. I know cause i asked, hahaha!

Wesley* is such a genius when it comes to hair. His name has a * cause i’m not too sure on how to spell his name. He forgot to give me his name card :(

Anyway, i totally loved the way he curled my hair and i really want to learn how he does it! I observed him as he was doing my hair, trying to pick up his technique. I tried replicating it when i got home but my result was kinda meh.

Korean?

HAHAHA damn thick skin! Super perasan i know, was just messing. Ignore me please.

Next, pictures from my previous shoot! It was a couple of weeks ago; for iFeel magazine :)

It was good to see them again. I was so excited when Jet told me we were gonna do a spread about false lashes! Jet’s the beauty writer for iFeel and i’ve known her for.. about 3 years now.

The make up artist was another super efficient one. He did layers and layers of falsies on me and i was like O_O

    every photo in this post gives you a very different look. 5th is best.

    koreans go for plastic and silicone, as hot as they are, i always have my doubts. japanese too extreme and unpredictable, i dun like. i personally like the way hongkies dress… simple yet elegant. malaysia’s fashion options are limited by its weather…too bad.

    July iFeel?…ok. set!!
