An outstanding Brits finale from Cee-lo Green & Paloma Faith last night! My first time working at the Brits and I was lucky enough to make up the dancers for the performance, alongside make-up artists Debbie Bates, Thom Walker, Lucy Thompson, hair by Leon Synan and super hot styling from Hayley Nunn. It's incredible to be part of such a production, a constant 10 hour buzz to create a 5-minute show and an amazing one at that!

Check out these hotties....

Thomas Tait LFW S/S 11

2010-09-22T04:13:00.000-07:00

Check out these beautifully sculpted masterpieces from Thomas Tait's debut collection for London Fashion Week.

I worked with key make-up artist Thom Ticklemouse, who created a cool, sharp, androgenous look with strong emphasis on bone structure to reflect the collection. Skin and eyes were given a cold, dark appearance to complete this chilling look.

It all looked fantastic, an amazing show and great team (pictured below) to be a part of, and well done to Thom for designing such a great make-up.

W0NDERFUL

OUTRAGEOUS

WILD

Have you ever been dazzled by a double rainbow?

Or seen hearts in the sky without tripping?

I wonder if you’ve ever seen your ‘true’ reflection in a mirror.

Or had your breath taken away by the amazing voice of the guy in the blue tutu playing guitar?

Have you ever seen a topless see-saw with so many carefree folk?

Ever been to a roller disco in the desert with 20 of your mates?

Imagine learning to tightrope with a pineapple on your head,

Not to mention trampolining covered in sequins?

Did you ever imagine you could witness a beautiful enchanted wedding as a lion with 100 other animals?

Could you see yourself waving goodbye to sadness at a burning temple?

And smiling so much it aches?

Imagine partying on a bullet-shaped car whilst applying colourful dramatic eyelashes to boys

Or dancing to the sunset on top of a 40-foot scaffold,

And could you walk down a catwalk in fancy dress, just to keep the outfit?

Have you ever made a wish at a wishing well?

And had all your wishes come true?

Did you ever think you would rejoice in having no money?

And even if you did it would have no value?

Ever embraced such a bundle of positive energy and kindness from 50,000 people?

Because life’s about giving and sharing.

Some of my truly inspiring and magical moments from Burning Man, the greatest show on earth!

Summed up right here....

Serious?

Gaga Actually!

2010-06-08T03:58:00.000-07:00

A shout out to my mate Shezza for making me this divine Lady Gaga telephone hat for a fancy dress party, amazing what this girl can do with a bit of newspaper and PVA glue! Although someone did think I was dressed as the banker from Deal Or No Deal, AHEM, obviously not down with the kids.

Andy Warhol and Marilyn Monroe were getting on down too....

Beauty made easy by Topshop

2010-06-07T09:09:00.000-07:00

I had the pleasure of working with Topshop for the launch of their new make-up brand Topshop Make-up. An array of cheap and cheerful products with easy application. My favourites were the nail polishes at just £5 a pop, 1-2 coats is enough and incredibly long lasting results. Bold shades of red to hot pink lipsticks in the form of a pencil/crayon to ensure great precision are only £7. Smokey eyes are made easy with their beautifully soft kohl pencils and crayons (£4-£6), helping create a perfect blend.

Each season Topshop introduces a new limited edition collection focusing on current fashion trends. For Spring/Summer you can team your festival get-up with metallic crayons, glitter pots and highly pigmented eyeshadow trios.

All available online at www.topshop.com/makeup where you can pick up top tips from make-up artist Hannah Murray's video tutorials or check out your local Topshop.

Glasswork Studios

2010-06-07T08:28:00.000-07:00

An exciting new set up by two friends of mine Damien Paul and Lauren Lewis,

www.glasswork-studios.com is a unique blend of boutique fashion pieces at affordable prices, as well as regular editorial features on current trends (hair and make-up by me in the 'trends' section), spotlights on their featured designers and where's hot to trot in their favourite cities across the globe, currently focusing on London and New York.

The guys are running a pop-up shop in Covent Garden until 20th June. They've styled it out with a large white bubble sofa, bistro table and chairs and fresh flowers to give the feel of a stylish, contemporary home for buyers to check out brands such as Sass & Bide, Karen Walker, Current/Elliott and Gryphon. Any purchases can be delivered to your door or taken home on the day. Get yourself down to 34 Great Queen Street, London WC2B 5AA.

Woss UUUUUPPP!

2010-04-22T16:23:00.000-07:00

An exciting Thursday aft last week in the BBC studios working with make-up artist Emma Osborne to prep Alphabeat for their big stint on The Jonathan Ross Show. I worked alongside Emma to preen the guys for their performance of their new single DJ. Stine looked amazing, wearing a beautiful dress designed by my friends at Aqua.

Such a catchy tune too, my new guilty pleasure methinks!

See their performance here...

Through The Looking Glass

2010-04-22T15:41:00.000-07:00

One of my most favourite shoots to date.... 17 year old cutesie Suki turns into bedroom seductress. I love how these model beauts transform into character when they get in front of the camera with a bit o slap on!

Thanks to Nathan Hudson Jenkins for his amazing photography skills, fantastic Love magazine stylist Carlos Nazario, Hannah Phillips again working wonders on hair and make-up by moi. A fantastic team, had so much fun and constantly inspired all day. Suki's hobby is photopgraphy, she takes random snapshots with an old point and shoot camera and has some really interesting stuff, I'll post her link up soon.

These are just a few backstage shots, re-touches will be posted soon so watch this space x

Greasepaint

2010-03-17T17:10:00.000-07:00

I've been lucky enough to use Rankin's new Kentish Town studio for a couple of test shoots now, buzzing off each and every one and they keep getting better. Bouncing off this fab team - hair stylist Hannah Phillips, stylists Nova and Natasha and last but definitely not least photographer Damien Fry, to create two great looks on Esther and Ivory, glossy eyes looking hoooot! Congrats to Esther who, thanks to these shots, was signed to Union Models following the shoot.

Oooo to be 10 years younger!

2010-03-17T16:44:00.000-07:00

Another successful test shoot with photographer Damien Fry, Hairstylist Hannah Phillips and stylists Nova Dando and Natasha. These two 19 year old lovelies James and Richie from Models 1 blossomed before our very eyes.

Wild thing I think I love you..

2010-03-17T16:33:00.000-07:00

Totally blown away by a good friend's artistic talents this evening. Oil on canvas to create this beautiful creativity from the lovely Dion...

Alice In Underland

2010-03-13T16:42:00.000-08:00

I went back to school for a skin thickening experiment! Definitely not a flawless run of events leading up to this one but happy to say made it through to the other side smelling of roses as these fine snaps from Ms Fotofillia prove! So huge thanks to her, my partner in crime Caroline Michael.

A total self-development exercise for us as we were re-invented as set designers and stylists too. Amazing clothes from 5sixteen and Rokit helped make this happen.

Also thanks to gorgeous models Saskia Hoffman and Adrien de la Motte, Debbie Bates for doing the hair, Katarina Louise jewellery and John Vagabond for the loan of this incredibly eery 1960s comprehensive secondary school location.
