HELP-PORTRAIT PROJECT


Over the weekend I joined the HELP-PORTRAIT project, it’s a movement among photographers and industry professionals doing portraits of people that aren’t able to afford traditional family portraiture.  I volunteered to do makeup for the families at the El Puente center in Brooklyn, New York.  We were fortunate to work with sixty families!!!  I enjoyed laughing with the kids and giving the moms makeup tips that they’ll be able to add to their daily routines!!  Here are some of the photos from the event taken by Monika.

MUGSHOT MONDAY

 

Order in the court, it’s MUGSHOT MONDAY, the day that beauty violators are brought to justice!! My good friend Roxanne recently got a sassy low maintenance haircut!!!  Hubba Hubba!!!   We wanted to compliment her new cut with an equally snazzy makeup look that is quick and simple to achieve.

Check out Roxanne’s rap sheet:

  • Roxanne has great skin so we only used a dab of foundation
  • Liquid liner was used on the upper lid
  • Shimmering blush was added to the apples of the checks
  • Two coats of mascara were used on lashes
  • Chocolate shadow was used in the crease of the lid




 

She’s a ROXXSTAR!!!!
