"A picture A week" : Weekly Makeup & Hair Inspiration

I really love this styling in terms of Makeup & Hair! It's not groundbreaking, the single elements are relatively simple, yet all together Hair & makeup are really powerful and well thought-through.

I love the lips, which have been painted with foundation whilst the model kept her mouth in a position as though she was blowing a kiss to someone. This creates these awesome fine lines (the same technique was used in the photo on the below).

I also adore the blusher which has been pulled far into the face and over the nose to create this frosty look which you get when you have been outside in the cold fresh air for too long.

The lioness hair weave draped around the face is just wonderful and gives this photo an outerworldly ancient ethnic feel.

Beautiful work!

German Supermodel Hana N is back in town ... Jan 14th

German supermodel Hana N is most definitely one of my favorite models.

Flying in from New York City, where she has been modeling the past months, she has just arrived in Dubai.

Make sure you get your bookings in before it's too late, the gorgeous Hana is only here for a month and her calendar is filling up quickly.

She can be booked via Bareface.

"A picture A week" : Weekly Makeup & Hair Inspiration

Like most creatives I am a collector of inspirational "things".

Things I love, admire or that have simply awed me. They range from crafts, fabrics to anything that somehow makes me think "Aww that would be so cool to incorporate into a shoot" or "can you imagine to have that glued to the lips".

So, this week's "A picture A week" I found while researching architectural and geometric hair styles in preparation for a upcoming shoot. Every hair stylist knows how incredibly much effort goes into creating something like this. I love it and will definitely spend a couple of hours one day trying to figure it all out in order to make such crazy geometric hair in the future. You too?
