VERSATILE MAKEUPWhat I find so incredible about makeup is how different the results can be using the same products. I love messing around with the different colour combinations and making something entirely new.

COLOUR

“Colour is a power which directly

influences the soul”- Wassily Kandinsky

I used only one palette to create this look, creating striking results

BALANCEMakeup can have both symmetrical and asymmetrical balance, depending on the desired look

Symmetrical

“Creativity is allowing yourself to make mistakes.

Art is knowing which ones to keep.”

- Scott Adams

WARM TONESReds, pinks and oranges bring a light and warm feeling to makeup, just as it would with any form of art.

COOL TONES Blues, purples and greens can bring a more mysterious cold vibe to makeup.

to an ugly world”- Jeff Goins

HOW MAKEUP HAS HELPED ME DURING THIS PANDEMICDuring this pandemic I have learned a lot about myself, one thing being that I hate being confined to one place.

Makeup has helped me because it allows me to be creative and focused in a time where we are limited.

Makeup allows me to escape the world around me and focus my energy into something creative and expressive.

It allows me to escape the craziness and focus one brush stroke at a time.
