It's the small things in life! Dove Calming Night Shower
Dove discontinued this part of their line for reason beknownst only to them, because I don't know anyone who does not LOVE this product, including myself.

Dr. Renaud Azulene Calming Rich Cream
I love all things Azulene because of it's calming, non-irritating properties for the skin, and especially in the foul, cold winter weather, at some point we all are in need of a product that will just feed, soothe and repair our skin.
Azulene is derived from Chamomile, which has anti-bacterial and anti-inflammatory

Paula Begoun Exfoliating 8% Alpha Hydroxy Acid Gel
I have been a huge fan of Paula Begoun since the mid-80's when she came out with her book "Blue Eyeshadow should be Illegal" which stumbled upon in a bookstore in New York City. I found it both hilarious and VERY on point. I bought the Beauty Bible and was hooked from then on.
Nouvital Azulen Cleansing Oil
I'm going to start the new year fresh with a couple of posts on my skin care routine, because after all, the basis of every beautiful makeup is good skin.
This routine is largely identical to what I like to use on clients, specially regarding cleansing.
This jewel of a product here is one of my staples and everyone loves it.
If I (or the client) wears a lot of eyemakep

Embryolisse Lotion Micellaire
First of all, Happy New Year to all my readers and welcome to my first post of 2011!
I'm a big fan of most Embryolisse products as you all probably know by now, so I wanted to start off the new year with a post about a new product of theirs that I have more than happily added to our catalog.
As you know I try

New Publication: Eva Jinek for The Volkskrant by Stephan Vanfleteren
This shoot was to accompany an interview that Eva gave to The Volkskrant, to be published on Friday December 24th 2010, in the Christmas special that comes with the newspaper.
Renowned Belgian photographer Stephan Vanfleteren shot these pictures. It was the first time we worked together and we had a great time, even so much so that we completely lost track of time!
Stephan is not only talented in his art, but

Long time no post, and here's why
Hi everyone, it's been a long time since I've posted (end of September to be exact) so I figured with the year drawing to an end, I should take this opportunity to update you on how we've been doing.

HYGIENE on set.. is it REALLY necessary?
In a word YES it is.
I know it's a pain, but there is just no way around it, it has to be done.
With this post I aim to explain what proper hygiene is and I'll try and help you on your way to a work routine that is both safe and easy to adopt. All it takes is a little discipline, but trust me, once you are aware of the health risks that your model (and you) are exposed to, you will be happy to put in the effort. I felt the need to post this because I see a lot of mua's kits that are just beyond nasty. Not cleaned, disinfected, with dirty brushes that are used on everyone, sponges that are never even washed. If anyone were to do makeup on ME with that nasty mess, I would not

My first national newspaper mention!
It's a small step, but I'm still pretty stoked!
Het Parool, a national newspaper, did a small article on Embryolisse Lait-Creme Concentré, and mentioned my store. :) Take a look, I'm right next to Prada :D
