  A fun outtake from our recent Bobbi Brown collaboration! Model Shae Butters (who literally has skin like butter!) looked so great in this natural look that I couldn’t resist snapping a few extra shots before adding the more dramatic makeup. Click here to see the official post!

Happy Halloween!

Take it off… Sophie Koella

  Taking it off is sometimes even more fun than putting it on… these were snapped after a L’oreal Paris shoot last year with the gorgeous Sophie Koella.  Sophie is brilliant on both sides of the lens, check her Instagram for a sample of her photography work.  Hair by Bobby Eliot, hoodie by Calvin Klein.

Staz in Pink

I’m re-organizing the Beauty Is Boring studio this week and finding tons of old Polaroids, including this makeup test on Staz Lindes – musician, model and muse.  Can’t remember exactly when we shot this but it’s a really 80’s look… so 80’s that evidently I didn’t even blend the blush. Ha!

In the yard… Ella Flood

    When you snap a photo after the shoot with your iPhone and realize that Ella Flood is giving young Kim Basinger vibes plus LemonheadLA Spacepaste is glittery chartreuse goodness in the late afternoon sunlight…

IN the studio with Brooke Candy…

Celebrating Brooke Candy’s birthday today in the Beauty Is Boring studio!  It was the perfect opportunity to play with yet another new shade of the NARS Powermatte Lip Pigment – a bright fuchsia color called Give It Up.
