New Pics from December 2015 wedding

Hey there!

I thought I posted these images ages ago but alas I didn't. Just a quick update from the St. Regis of Bal Harbour wedding in Miami that we had the privilege of working on with the amazing Patty Nash Photography back in December.

The bride wanted to keep things classy and simple at the same time.  I think we managed that, what do you think?

Are you getting married or have a special event in South Florida coming up?

Stay Tuned!!

Just finished planning and setting up for my photo shoot tomorrow morning!  Stay tuned.  I will post shots of getting ready, and step by step details of what I used to get the look for the model.  Don't want to give too much away, so you will just have to stay tuned!!!  Check back again  real soon!! See you real soon and stay "be you"tiful!! 

Ciao for now,
Natasha

BOUDOIR PHOTO SHOOT - MAKEUP ARTIST & HAIR STYLIST IN SOUTH FLORIDA

Hey there guys!! Just in time for Valentine's Day I just received a few images from my client Dounia's boudoir photoshoot. I mentioned her a bit earlier here in my blog so imagine my surprise when she already received her images back from the photography studio!! I personally think we all (hair, makeup and photography) did a great job! Dounia also was a very good model because she really knew how to move that gorgeous body of hers just right. I don't know which stole the show...her curves or her eyes! She definately played up to the camera like a cheshire cat. I used mostly Motives Cosmetics and their skincare, MAC Cosmetics and Makeup Forever products on her. Next time, I think I will video record the process for you all to enjoy. To me, makeup is about enhancing your natural beauty. No one...and believe me when I say....NO ONE ... wakes up looking like this...not even Beyonce!!! Lol However, I think it is nice to know that we can achieve this look with just a bit of a swipe here and there a few curls and great lighting....well as you can see...my client Dounia worked it if you ask me!!! If you are in the Miami, Fort Lauderdale or Palm Beach areas give me a call at 954-245-7166. I will be happy to help you bloom into the beauty you can be. Hair, Makeup and Photography will be set up for you as well. In any case, I am quite pleased with Dounia's images as was she! Let me know what you think?

Motives Foundation Quad-South Florida Makeup Artist

As most of you know I am in love with the Motives Cosmetics line. I actually have been representing the line for about 2 years now and use it in my kit on every gig I go on. One of my favorite products in the line is the foundation quad. I actually love the way it lays on the skin! It is ah mah zing!!! It does not enhance lines and such but in fact diminishes them. The coverage is opaque and super creamy (this is not an easy task to do by the way). If you need light coverage it is perfect and if you need a bit more coverage you can build on it. The fact that it manages to remain creamy and not cakey is the reason it does not settle in lines and such. Anything that is going to aid me in the "stay looking young forever" fight gets an A+ in my book! I do have a bit of a confession however...I know it is a foundation but I find myself reaching for it over and over again as a concealor! A little dab will do ya! I loooove it as a concealor. I can play with the four shades provided to find the perfect color. Check it out for yourself at: www.TheBloomingBeauty.com and click on the Motives Cosmetics link. Let me know what you think about it. I think you will find you cannot live without it as well.

BOUDOIR MAKEUP FOR SOUTH FLORIDA PHOTO SHOOT

Today I worked with a very nice young lady by the name of Dounia. She is an amazing lady and very inspiring. In the last 2 years she has lost 50 pounds and has kept the LB's off fabulously. She had called me a few weeks ago because I had did her friends wedding makeup a few months back and she kept my name in her mental rolodex. She always wanted to get her makeup done for a boudoir type of shoot and decided to call me to help transform her. She looked and felt fabulous! I snapped some shots with my cellphone but I cannot wait to see the professional images! I now present to you.....the Dynamite Dounia.... Hair by Debbie from Gem Hair

For your transformation....contact me at: www.TheBloomingBeauty.com Thanks for stopping by and stay "BE YOU"tiful!!! Natasha xoxo

South Florida Weddings

Here are a few "sneak peek" images from the South Florida (Miami, Fort Lauderdale, Palm Beach) weddings I worked on in the last few weeks:

Please keep in mind that these were all taken with a cellphone. I am still awaiting the images from the photographers but that usually takes a few weeks and sometimes even months!! Looking forward to seeing them!! They were all wonderful to work with. Stay tuned.
