THE PERFECT CAT EYE

Magdalena Frackowiak shot by Liz Collins for Numéro #122 I’ve done many a cat eye in my makeup career and the best tip I can give you for a precise, symmetrical and mess-free flick is… to lightly draw the shape that you want with a black eye pencil then when you’re happy and both eyes [...]

DANICA

The gorgeous and super sweet Miss Danica Smith, shot by Zanita with hair and makeup by moi. She has such a beautiful face, a perfect profile and gorgeous hair, it was very fun turning her into a classic coquette for the day.
