What a crazy few months it has been! As always, I am keeping myself busy and preoccupied. Sorry it’s been so long in between posts but I just haven’t had the time to sit on the computer longer than 5 minutes! I have some exciting projects in the works and to start with I did the make-up for Ruby Rose who will be gracing the cover of the November issue of Australian Ink Magazine. I jetted to Sydney back in late August for the shoot, and while there I also got to meet and rub lotion into the lovely Didier Cohen (clothing label ‘Industrie’s main man). I jumped at the chance to work with both Ruby and the amazing Photographer Jason Ierace, who has shot everyone from Dave Grohl to Helena Christensen. Talk about hyper-excitement on my part! Brent came along for the ride and took some behind the scenes pics for me on location at the Ivy. A big thank you to Editor Vanessa Morgan for the opportunity! If you’re in Australia, keep an eye out for Issue 3 of Australian Ink Magazine, out in all newsagents on November 20th! Until then, here are some pictures to tide you over…

We did a few different looks, including a smokey eye with a bold lip, and a natural look with neutral lips and eyes.

The crew – Photographer Jason Ierace, Creative Director Rob Loughridge, Stylist Marina Didovich.

Love the colours and styling. The dresses and accessories were to die for, I was pretty much drooling!

I have seen a few of the finished shots and they look super hot but I’m going to hold out on posting until the mag is released!

It’s so nice to see you back, I was afraid you’d disappeared permanently. ;) Will definitely pick up the mag and have a flick through in Borders. Congratulations!
