Task 2 - Makeup Artist

One makeup artist I found interesting is Gucci Westman.

Westman has been known for her makeup work with celebrities such as Drew Barrymore, Natalie Portman, Gwyneth Paltrow and Cameron Diaz. She has also served as a makeup artist or makeup supervisor for several Hollywood movies including Being John Malkovich, Buffalo 66 and French Exit.




She has styled the cosmetic looks of cover models like Taylor Swift, Jennifer Aniston and Kim Kardashian. She even modeled herself for an article in Vogue's January 2011 issue.


 
 
 
 
Westman even did the makeup of runway models for New York and London fashion week.




Little fact - Westman had a cameo in the Sex and the City Movie!



App

My group found a nice little app called Trusper, where you can search for tips on pretty much anything including makeup and beauty!

With Trusper, you can view what's new and popular, what's featured, save tips that you find most helpful and add friends and even view their tips!

Task 1 - NASMAH

I was asked to find out what the NASMAH (National Association of Screen Make-up Artists and Hairdressers) is.

One of the many links found on the NASMAH webpage I found most interesting was www.crimsoncatz.com, a company created by a couple of experts specialising in health, beauty, fitness, fashion, make-up artistry and marketing. Crimson Catz also provide glitter tattoos for childrens' birthday parties and adult special occasions including hen nights and even divorce parties!




Short courses for advanced make-up is available too through the company. Materials will be provided for you to work with!
