Good
morning and welcome to a super quick post this fine morning. And when
I say fine I do actually mean
it today because it is not raining. Wait for it – not only is it
not raining, it is SUNNY! For those of you waking up to a little sun
in the UK this morning you can heave a sigh of relief that at least
for one day the flood warnings wont be sounding. For those of you
that don't live in the UK we have had rain for forever and so much in
one go that it has flooded many places. Even in my small town parts
of the roads have sunk! But we are not going to think about that
today, as I say the sun is out, it is a fine day
and I thought I would share with you The Beautiful Jess.
This
photo shoot was undertaken months ago but Hubby had decided that not
a single picture from this shoot was good enough to be viewed by the
public. He had decided this without letting me see any of said
pictures so I could not have an opinion on the subject. So after some
incessant pushing and general wife wearing down Hubby gave in and
VoilĂ .
I
have to say this is not the first time that I have had no clue what
Hubby has been going on about. I personally love this picture – yes
I may be a little biased because I love Jess ;0) but I think this is
beautiful. Of course I did the make-up, otherwise why would it be on
my blog – that would make no sense lol. But this time I did a
little something extra and had a go at doing hair as well. Now I am
by no means a hair stylist, I actually get my own hair cut short
because I am so rubbish with hair! So I bit the bullet and gave it a
whirl. As you can see I only curled it with some curling tongues but
I really do like it. Jess has the most gorgeous fiery red hair anyway
so that helped a lot.
As
well as the hair and the make-up I also painted the nails. I wanted
to give the effect of leaves on the nail so I used a matt green base
and a nail art pen with a striper in gold to do the veins. I didn't
want them to look too uniform (I am a sucker for symmetry so this was really hard for me) so I
varied the thickness and position of the stripes for each nail and I
really do like the effect.
As
for the make-up I am really sorry that I don't have a run down of the
products used for this one. As I say I thought this shoot was never
going to be shown so I didn't keep a list of the products and it was
shot so long ago I cant really remember what I used. I could take a guess but I
feel that wouldn't be much help to any one, but what I can say for
definite is the super full-on, amazing lashes are from Stargazer and
they are the Feathered Eyelashes in 54. I had been dying to use these
beauties and they were everything I wanted them to be. They are
immense!
I
think as a whole doing the make-up, hair and nails has given the
photo a more rounded feel. I think this is the most complete picture
I have done so far and I think I would go as far as to say that it's
my favourite.
Big
thanks has to Jess as always, for just being plain beautiful and a big
WOOP to the Hubster for taking a stunning picture (cant believe you weren't going to show these, you should listen to me more often lol).
Hope
you have enjoyed and I will see you again soon.
