Oscars 2013 Beauty Recap

There were SO many beautiful women last night!! Its so hard to choose just a few! But here are some of my favorite beauty looks from last night. A lot of flawless skin, more focus on the eyes with a nude or natural lip.
I had a blast doing Hair & Makeup for Laine Craft before she headed over to the Red Carpet to interview the stars!


Kerry Washington's dress at the Oscars was my favorite! So stunning. Catherine Jeta Jones looked ageless and so sexy!


I had the pleasure of assisting the amazing Makeup Artist Amy Nadine and touching up fellow New Zealander Anna Paquin.
I love this flawless look that Amy created, and the twisted crown hair style looks awesome on her!

Both the Jennifer's looks absolutely stunning!! Jennifer Aniston looks so beautiful and natural!!


Who ever Adelle's team is for Hair & Makeup they are the BOMB and always do such a flawless job on her, everytime I see her!!

New Makeup and a Braided Updo

Doing my thing, behind the scenes for a Commercial shoot recently;

I recently got given this amazingly infamous Palette called 'Naked' by Urban Decay- It has the best range of colors to create a natural look to something dark & smokey!

My sister asked me to do her hair this morning so this is what I came up with! ;)
I did a french braid from the front of her head on each side and slanted it down to the nap of her neck and braided to her ends, then I wrapped each braid around the opposite side of her head and pinned securely with bobbi pins.
A very cute & romantic look-

Look out for my upcoming interview with Caroline from FlyMyDarling ! She is doing a series of inspirational videos that she will be posting online.
In my interview I talk about;
-Beauty from within
-Accepting yourself and loving your flaws
-Success
-Creating a positive environment at work
-How you feel inside and how that effects your whole world!!

I love this quote and it is sooo true!! How we look and feel about ourselves determines others reactions of us!

Big Hair! Inspiration for the day~

Loving this editorial with this BIG hair!!!
