Studio 277 make up looks for Raw Orlando
Working with one of my favorite designers Hadascha for Raw Orlando Studio 277 Cosmetics sponsored the models for her nomination award show.
Our look was one of a subtle highlight under bronzed cheeks, strong contour and strong brows.
We used Studio 277 Cosmetics Matte goddess bronzer 24.50 along with matte blush mocha 10.50 for the contour and brows. On the lids we used a pinkish bronze with a strong crease of corduroy and on the lips for two of the models we used amore red liner 6.50 and berry rock gloss 9.50. For our nude lip we used creamy lipstick russet..one of my favorites 9.50 with a sweet expressions lip liner 6.50and topped it off with our lipgloss Whisper 9.50.

REPOST How Do I find hair and make up for my wedding
Brides: How do you find
hair and make up for your wedding Part:1
So you’re going to the chapel and you’re going to get married…but who’s doing your makeup and hair for that special day!!!
.So many times brides run into the dilemma that their regular hairstylist does not come on location and they feel their only options for makeup is the local mall cosmetic counter.
When you identify a mobile bridal salon what do you do next?
It’s important to make sure that the company and individual is a good fit for you. Determine what your style and vision is for your special day. Collect pictures and information and schedule a consultation. A consultation is generally complimentary; it is a time to sit with the artist and get a feel for them. To take a look at their portfolio and get feedback on the vision that you have verses the reality of what you are working with.
If you are not comfortable during your consultation then don’t feel pressured to book or purse services with the individual or company. This is the most important day of your life; its imperative that you have a vibe and comfort level with your artist or stylist.
For destination brides consultations can be done over the phone or by email.
After you have completed your consultation and you feel comfortable; you may want to have a trial run. A trial run typically cost but that fee is nominal in comparison the peace of mind you will get after you have nailed down your bridal hair and make up look.
What should you expect from your trial?? That is our next blog…stay tuned.
Until next time Lena G

Five Funky Trends for 2013
http://www.glamour.com/fashion/2012/09/spring-2013-most-wearable-fashion-trends#slide=1
Bold Stripes
Bold Stripes are in.
Did you know that the patterns stripes where originally
made for soldiers just in case they went overboard...so that they could be
seen...interesting!!!
Ladies when attempting to wear stripes:
Match your body size. Keep the size of the stripe in line with
the size of your body If you’re tall or full-figured, then you can wear bigger,
wider stripes. Petite women should stick to small stripes that are closer
together and women with a medium build should wear—you guessed it—medium
stripes. Stripes can create balance..... Fuller-figured women can look for a
chevron (v-shaped) stripe to call attention to the center line of your body
Layer your look. Use stripes as an element of your outfit
instead of the entire look. Try a striped t-shirt under a solid-color blazer or
cardigan, which “helps break up the impact of the stripes.”

Bermuda Shorts
They are back...don't get them confused with
capris or cargo pants...Bermuda shorts are well tailored shorts that fall to
the knees...You can Dress them Up and Dress them Down.
Did you know
that they where invented for British soldiers as they ventured into
more tropical weather?
Black and White
Black and white
ironically is a hit for spring...you can color block, wear patterns,
stripes...whatever your little heart desires but you can't go wrong!!!
Short Suites
Dressing up shorts
with a jacket is another trend for the fall......add a well tailored blazer.... whaaa laaa...you have a winner
Statement
Sunglasses
Need I say
more.......
