My sister was nice enough to let me do a before and after when I did her makeup over the weekend. I love doing before and afters, I think it’s my new obsession. It’s amazing what makeup can do! Of course Carly, you are beautiful with or without makeup

I just did an editorial photoshoot and had the pleasure of working with model, Jaquelyn Collazo and photographer Sergio Vazquez. She was gracious enough to let me do a before and after! For the first look we did, I focused on Jaquelyn’s gorgeous eyes and accentuated them with some dramatic liner, gold shimmer and glam faux lashes. Also shown is another look where I pumped it up a little bit and had a little bit of fun. She was transformed from sweet to sassy on the same day 
More photos from the shoot will be posted on the blog soon!!!
I hear all sorts of things when people hear about airbrush makeup, some are totally ridiculous and some things I hear were true at one point but not anymore. So, let me clear up the air…
Airbrush Makeup Is Cakey
This one is the complete opposite of the truth. I can see where people would think this since the makeup is essentially being put on by a power tool. Truth is that the foundation is sprayed on so lightly that it looks like your real skin and is the ultimate tool in replicating skin texture….let alone the mere advantages of the silicone and waterproof capabilities.
Airbrush Foundation Is Not Good For Mature Skin
Once upon a time, this was true. The makeup would settle into fine lines and wrinkles. Now with the advancements that have been made with the foundations, this is no longer an issue. It also takes a trained artist to know how to apply to mature skin but Maris and I are trained how to do it so no more worries!
Airbrush Foundation Looks Light In Pictures
This is the most absurd myth I have heard yet. Obviously the person who started this had a bad artist who didn’t match her skin properly and then blamed it on airbrush makeup. SO not true!
You Can Powder Over Airbrush Foundation As Much As You Want
Absolutely Not! You have to powder after the application to set it but that should be done by a MUA who has special finely milled powder. Always use blotting papers instead of powder – if you have to powder, you can, but maybe only 1x.
Let me know if there are any other myths you have heard about airbrush and I will be happy to answer them! Airbrush makeup is perfect for any event including weddings!
Perhaps when you turned 18 and you were feeling rebellious; or when you were in college you decided to experiment and turned to the ink and needle. That’s right we are talking about that tattoo – you know the one that looks great when you’re at the beach or a night club. However, consider looking back years from now at your wedding photos with your children or grandchildren and all they see is your tattoo! Tattoos can be distracting – from you and your special day and while you are mulling this over think about all the pictures with you, your husband and your tattoo.
Do you need to compromise on your wedding gown or your photos in order to hide your tattoo?
Not anymore! With our airbrush artistry, we can cover your tattoo so it does not distract from your natural beauty and your special day. You can wear that elegant strapless dress and still have beautiful pictures without the ink!
Now if you have tattoos and they are a part of who you are, wear them proudly. But it is something you need to think about and consider before your big day!
