Ivory Ezpeleta Trial Hair and Makeup




My lovely bride from Singapore, Ivory, who resembles Hilary Swank...


The look I did for Ivory is something that would suit her personality. Well, we've only just met but my first impression of her was that she was very sweet and soft spoken, kind and really smiley. So my look for her was something sweet as well.

I used colors such as "blushing bride", "bashful" and "spring fling". Just like Hilary's features, she has such strong features that make her look mataray so I lightened her eyebrows to brighten up her face to soften her lovely features.

I was planning to put gloss on her, but after my first coat of lipstick on her, she already loved it so we skipped the gloss which turned out just right for her too because she had such lovely full lips.

Kristine's Trial Hair and Makeup




The lovely Kristine had her trial hair and makeup session today with me... I just love her, she's so pleasant and bubbly!

She was to have her prenup pictorial today with her fiance at Fernwood Gardens. The look I did for her is fresh and clean. I wanted her to look as if she didn't have a lot of makeup on her face so we opted for airbrush makeup.

Bea did her hair in loose curls, but she pinned them up first so that it could set before the pictorial. The style is a half-ponytail.

April's Gig

April had another gig and she had her hair and makeup done again by me. I love how her features already are strong and very beautiful that she didn't need a whole lot! April is the girl in the middle:

Ashley and Mom

One of my dear dear friends Ashley and her mom had their hair and makeup done with me and Tony. Airbrush makeup for the both of them. They are attending an outdoor wedding at Villa Escudero! So a fresh and radiant look would look best.

Lana's makeup






My friend Lana is attending a wedding today so she had her makeup done by me.

Her dress is green so I did her eyes on the warm side (in this picture it kinda looks grey but it's actually bronze-y/copper-ish). A nice shade of apricot and a bit of bronzer complemented her skin tone very well.

Some lashes and a nude glossy lips to complete the look.


Her daughter Kayla is a flower girl so I gave her a bit of blush and eye shadow as well. It's not really seen because of the harsh lights, but she looked so adorable.

Tina Caranto Trial Hair and Makeup




My July 25 bride Tina had her trial session today, my bride who looks a bit like Zhang Ziyi (thanks to my cousin for making that observation). Hehehe...

I emphasized her eyes without using a whole lot of eye shadow on her eyes. I wanted to use something dramatic but staying on the neutral side.

I used a bit of bronzer on the temples of her cheeks to give her fair skin a bit of color and warmth. A peach blush to complement her warm skin tone too, but blended her apples with a soft rose shade as well.








Here are some more pictures of Tina from her trial session:



This is the up-style that Tony did for Tina:

The cover of Lifestyle Asia for July 2009 is Mercy Tuason. Her old photograph is actually the cover so I did the cover story. We recreated the pictures taken of her from before. Check them out! These are just scans so sorry for them being blurry.

Before having a dip in the pool...


FYI! Effects of Chlorine on hair and skin:

The chemical chlorine, when exposed to hair particularly on the arms and legs, has the ability to burn the tips of your hair off, resulting in a strand of hair having a blunt end. When the hair grows back an illusion of thicker and darker hair is given. Furthermore, hair loss on the head will be significant, however this hair, if exposed to chlorine on a regular basis, will dry out, resulting in an increase in split ended hair strands and bleached ends.

Chlorine damages the oil and mineral balance of cells, destroying the fluid balance, resulting in dried out, dead cells. This in turn leads to dry, peeling skin, which makes the surface of the skin appear shiny.

So make sure that after taking a dip, wash that chlorine off well! Shampoo your hair and condition your hair ends to repair the damage. Use products that doesn't cause hair fall. Use a loofa to exfoliate your skin and rinse very very well! After your shower, use a moisturizing lotion to re-hydrate your skin!

Donna Lim Hair and Makeup Trial





Donna has clear, fair skin. I still did airbrush on her because she told me she wasn't used to wearing makeup at al, so airbrush really is the way to go since it feels like second skin. Airbrush is for girls who are not used to having anything on their face.

For Donna's eyes, I used matte shadows and a light gold shimmer shadow for her brow bones. I kept the blush really fresh and light so it would blend well with her light lip color as well.

I posted pics here so you can see different angles of Donna so that you can see her makeup. I also posted pictures of Tony's hairstyles.
