My friend and fellow blogger, who happens to be a closet
poet decided to add to her extensive list of skills by becoming a makeup artist!
Mpho first started this as a hobby, then she became so good at it, varsity
students started paying her to do their make up! I decided to be the camera,
recording the process of turning an Ugly Duckling to a Beautiful Swan.
Now, as you may notice, the model used here (Reitumetse Russell)
is not an ugly duckling! So the expression best used would be: turning a Golden
to Platinum. This metaphor was inspired Mpho Tshabalala, yep, she is good with
words too! Lol! I have decided to take a before pic, and an after pic, and all
the nit and grits in between! “This make up look is?” I asked Mpho, and she
stared blankly at me with no answer! And that, ladies and gentlemen, is what
happens when you haven’t really been schooled! *those are her words, not mine*.
Seriously, it is a simple, natural look with light smokey
eyes and a tint of pink gloss! Since this is not a magazine, I am not obliged
to give you a tutorial on how to have this look! If you want it.....GOOGLE it!
(The magic of the internet)!
This post just goes to prove that with a lot of practise,
one can become an expert in anything!!!!!!
So, time for the fun part: I will be adding a gadget that
will be showing the before and after pics of every make up experiment Mpho
tries! Check it out on the right, it is called “aimeras ton visage” which is “love
your face” in French!
Enjoy!
