Last November I was doing makeup for one of my amazing clients in London, whom I have worked with for over 10 years.
Her daughter is the incredibly successful vlogger Amelia Liana, who has a fantastic social media following. Her photos are so gorgeous and she gives fab advice on everything style, beauty, travel etc. I remember Amelia as a young girl so it’s been so incredible to see her become this huge vlogger, so much work and dedication goes into it! I coudn’t help and share this video from last year, where you can see me in action around 9.11 minutes into the video (up til 9.57 minutes) quite fun to see me very concentrated, blending shadows and doing a very glamorous makeup for a charity event my lovely client is attending later that day. How beautiful is she by the way!
Ablusher is the most effective product at enhancing your face quickly.
As well as delivering a healthy flush in an instant, it adds subtle definition to the face and gives your skin a youthful appearance.
Picking the right Blusher:
When it comes to picking a blusher, you need to select the right texture for your skin.
Generally, cream and gel texture blushers work best for drier skin tones, as powders tend to settle into lines which can look older.
For normal or dry skins, cream blush gives a dewy healthy glow to the skin.
If you go for powder, sweep blusher onto the apples of the cheeks with a brush and blend out towards the top of the ears with small circular movements.
With cream textures, apply a small amount using your middle finger from apples of the cheeks blending outwards with gentle strokes.
Blusher should give a fresh healthy colour to the skin and face, so it’s best to apply small amounts and add if necessary.
Finding the right tone for your skin is important, and the poster above gives you a good idea of the different tones to pick for your colouring.

Over the year I have seen hundreds of ladies in their 50’s or 60’s (and beyond), who felt suck with their makeup looks. Sometimes still doing the same look from 20 years ago (sometimes longer!). Or overwhelmed by the choice of products available at the makeup counters. Often not being sure how to adapt to their hair colour changing and skin tone. Or knowing how to do your eye makeup, as the eyeliner may now look too harsh or the eye shape may not be suitable anymore for that product etc.. I love helping women regaining their confidence through using products that enhance their beauty and showing them how to simply achieve it with the right application technique or tool. I have seen so many women transform in front of my eyes, looking instantly radiant again, even ‘younger looking’ by just changing a couple of things in their makeup routine.

Last month I had the immense honour to do Makeup for Valentina Tereshkova, The first woman to ever go into space!!
Valentina recently celebrated her 80th Birthday and was on a visit to London from Moscow to attend various events. She was an absolute pleasure to work with and I did an elegant makeup to suit her style.
It was so exciting to work with such a legend.. I was flying high 🙂 for a few days from this meeting.
I’m super excited to have moved to Brighton, and more specifically to Hove. Brighton is a very popular destination for weddings so I am really looking forward to offer my Makeup services here in Sussex as well as London. Brighton has it all.. the sea, the Downs, the shops, the atmosphere.. I don’t miss London at all!
Looking forward to the Bridal Season! I still have a few week-ends available for bookings but it is booking fast!
