Make up essential

One of the first tricks I ever learned when I started out modeling was the trick of the white shimmery eye shadow.
Till this day, no matter what make-up trend has passed I still always swear by my shimmery white. This is also a trick I have taught all my girl friends and they too have stuck by it.
Its the easiest thing to do; Simply apply white shimmery eye shadow at the inner V corner of your eyes. This should be the last shadow you put on. Oh and use a brush, its so much easier and give a more subtle and controlled result.
This will make your eyes pop and it will enhance your eyes so much more.
I will show you 3 different pictures from random days where I wear my white nylon in my inner corner, I have always sworn by my mac eyeshadow in nylon.

I think showing you guys random pics are better than modeling pics. I want to give tips on the everyday make up things. I always hate it when I look in magazines and see really glammed make-up and hair pics knowing it takes hours to get such results which we normally dont have. OK so they are party pics but still, it took me like 3o minutes.

You might not notice much, but thats the point its suppose to be subtle and just make your eyes look bigger and and dooey like.


Here I blended well with the eyeshadow and my whole eye socket area under my eye, still making sure shimmer spots in the inner area.

Sometimes I will drag the line further like an eyeliner but underliner to enhance the effect, play around with it.
Here I just dabbed it in the corners of my eyes and because of the shimmer, the flash from the camera will pick it up and enhance your eye. My best friend, Nikki, has done the under line technique.

my beauty bag: saltwater spritz



This is on my must have list when it comes to my beauty bag. Saltwater spritz gives you nice beach hair and is perfcet for frizzy, wavy or limp hair. Get the hair damp and use salt water in a spray to bring out the wavy curls. Salt spray will do amazing things to your hair. It adds life to your hair giving you natural beach curls. So try spritzing or spraying a little salt water on already damp hair, scrunch it and then let it air dry. Scrunching it while it is wet will give it volume and randomness. Since most hair has some sort of natural wave, the salt spray will bring it out. There are many good brands out there but my fave is the one from Toni and guy, it smells
heavenly.

I have wavy hair, thanks to my spritz I can make it look more fun
