Aha, my first post... ever!

I've started this blog, primarily, to share my love of make up and document my training from novice to pro via the course i'm super excited to be starting in mid October at London Muse school of make up.

I'll regularly update the blog with images from the course - the good, the bad and the (hopefully not too) ugly and in the meantime i'll share some projects i've worked on in the past along with other inspirational images (i have many) and product reviews.

First up, here is a pic of my gorgeous sister Clio.  She had an oscars style party this past weekend and was wearing a full length teal coloured dress from Reiss.  I immediately pictured either a smokey or gold eye so trawled the internet and my wealth of magazines (i have too many) and books for inspiration.  I chose to base the look on an image i found in the Rae Morris Make Up 'The Ultimate Guide' and we were both really happy with the result.  Or at least Clio said she was, i am still waiting for an image of her with her hair up and dress on so maybe she scraped it off as soon as she left my house.

There is definitely plenty of room for improvement but i love it and can't wait for my next assignment!
