Latest cover for Gulf Connoisuer Magazine Middle-East and Russian Edition for new BMW 6 series convertible...Gosh ! i love the car! hehehe...anyways..the shoot was held at bab al shams ,super amazing 5 resort hotel in the heart of the desert..it was going summer when we had our shoot ,on going to preheat the oven weather.10 layers of foundation i used" joke" actually its other way around.the lesser foundation is best for an outdoor shoot so that thers nothing to melt and crease.An outdoor shoot has always been a great challenge for the make up artists coz u need to look forward about ur make up and equipped with knowledge ,techniques and logic basically on " how not to" let ur make up melt in heatness of the weather,well dont give ur self a chance to do a lot of hard work, as i said "WORK SMART ,than working hard."My point is that dont give ur make up a chance to melt by not putting a lot of it, thats for foundation, but for eyeshadows u can go as dark as u can as long as u prime it with waterproof base.and back to basic everyone! classic technique is to prepare the skin according to models skin type and products that holds the make up last longer....primer ,primer ,primer!!!! foundation and concealer only where its needed and avoid on laughlines and wrinkles (thats where it crease,double moisturize those areas) waterproof and bulletproof! mascaras and liner before lipstick........a bit of hardwork at first but guaranteed not too much touch-up....enjoy ur lovely juice in the sun,while theyre having photoshoot!!!hahahaah.bugger .Everything is still a challenge to me as a make up artist...and thats what keeps me going!!!! ...anyways..Enjoy watching!
