Suelyn Medeiros.... "Beauty Close Up"

I have had several people hit me up about this look I did on Suelyn in the winter issue of J'Adore Magazine. So I will go step by step on how to get this look yourself!

I sprayed her face down with MAC Fix+ Spray as I posted in an earlier blog entry. I used Smashbox Photo Finish Foundation Primer mixed with MAC Strobe Cream, to prep the skin. I concealed her eye area with Physician's Formula Light Concealer (Yes, I said Physician's Formula)..lol. I LOVE that as a highlight and base!! I used Nude eyeshadow from Smashbox to warm her eye are back up. A hint of MAC Bisque on her lid to make it pop just a little. MAC Smolder Eye Kohl in her water line, and lots of mascara from Lancome.
They wanted the girls to look clean, and simple...but we all know the "no make up" look takes more make up than normal for some reason:) I used concealer all over her entire face blended into the skin with a blush brush. High Def Liquid Concealer by Smashbox in Med/Dark. Set it all with a translucent powder, and contoured her face with a bronzer from NARS called Silvana (which they don't seem to have anymore:( A touch of Desire Blush from NARS on her apples. Her lip was just a mix of the same concealer and a lip gloss called Pixel by Smashbox.

Suelyn was a definite pleasure to work with! I will post her next shoot with me very soon!

EXTRA! EXTRA! ....read all about it!

Check out this great winter break campaign I did the make up for in the Sports Issue of J'Adore Magazine on newsstands now. The stylists for this shoot were the fabulous Maya and Ashley of M&A Styles, and a few of the bikinis they used were their own original designs. These ladies are definitely talented! The wonderful photography was done by LA's own Ken Townsend. He always brings out the natural beauty when he shoots!




Make up was very light, clean and perfectly dewy thanks to MAC Fix + Spray! Shooting in Malibu on this day was so beautiful and sunny. It's easy to enjoy yourself on a shoot like this, it looks like they did....great work team!!
