The last few months have been very exciting for me. I won a competition with collection 2000 and LOOK magazine which makes me part of the FABSET for Collection 2000. I had to design make-up, hair and style a model. My inspirations come from designer catwalk shows including Dior, Alexander McQueen and Prada. Make-up artists that inspire me include Pat McGrath, Charlotte Tilbury and Bobbi Brown. I collected research I liked from the catwalk and from make-up artist that inspired me and designed a make-up and hair look. I styled the look using Topshop clothing. I love Topshop I can always find something I can spend my money on in there. Here are the photos, thank you to my lovely model friend Sarah Palmer who helped me out.
I was so excited when I found out I had won and even more so when I got to go to London fashion week!!! We all had an amazing day, here are some photos.
We took inspiration from London fashion week and went down to London again to style a shoot for LOOK Magazine!! My favourite Magazine so it was great getting to work on a magazine I read every week. We went to Zen studios (http://www.zenproductions.co.uk/) it was one of the nicest studios I have ever been in. We all got to riffle through the suitcases full of clothes and pick an outfit for our model. My model was Anna and I wanted the style to stay along the same lines as the theme from my winning entry. So I picked a leather jacket which has this seasons big shoulder look and I teamed this with some studded leggings to give that rock theme. For the make-up it was nice to carry through the strong lips I had on my winning entry and collection 2000 ‘Red Red’ volume boosting lipstick was used, the face and eyes where kept fairly plain so the focus was on the lips.
On the shoot we were given lots of lovely Collection 2000 make-up, we also got to look at the new products that Collection 2000 are bringing out which includes a fabulous eyeshadow pallet with strong colour pigments, which I love and the new Collection 2000 Collagen Curl mascara it curls my lashes and builds just enough volume it hasn’t left my make-up bag since!
Here the photos from LOOK magazine (this came out on the 27th November) and some photos from behind the scene at the shoot.
