PROMINENT ETHNIC MODELS SERIES: LIU WEN

I know for my prominent ethnic models series I have been mostly focusing on our black models. I will not lie.

LIP COLOUR TRENDS FOR FALL 2011

With the fall season coming a upon us for some, my makeup looks have changed slightly. I have noticed that my lip colour has changed from airy and neutral to va va voom and so bold. I have being favouring a lot of coral, ruby red, blood red, dark pink, and orange lip colours. As you can see I love anything red. I am loving the way I am able to play around with a lot of pastels. As a makeup artist, it warms my heart to play in the playground that I hold so dear to my heart. In making my face quite neutral, I allow my lips to be center stage. As well, concealer around your lips to fully shape your lips truly helps to bring your attention straight to my lips but yet making it very sophisticated and chic.

The challenge for this series are blazers.

DO I EAT OR DO I NOT EAT?????

Anorexia nervosa (AN), also known as simply Anorexia, is an eating disorder characterized by refusal to maintain a healthy body weight and an obsessive fear of gaining weight. It is often coupled with a distorted self image which may be maintained by various cognitive biases that alter how the affected individual evaluates and thinks about her or his body, food and eating.

MAKEUP TIP FOR THE DAY

Makeup tip for the day less foundation is more for this changing season. Wear a neutral lip or if you are feeling daring, wear bold red lip and you are good to go. You are a showstopper. Work it divas.

For this section I will be providing my inside look into the world of hair.

There are more hair looks, but these are the main ones I am going to highlight.
