Adventures in Airbrushing Part II

Image Insight Makeup Artistry Website

It’s been an entire week of “science experiments” here at Image Insight as we work the airbrush products and techniques into our makeover systems. We have played with every combination of primers, concealers and fixing sprays to find the best “recipe” for the perfect finish! Just like traditional foundation airbrush makeup looks and lasts it’s best when the skin is prepped appropriately. We were impressed with the Temptu S/B foundations and have already ordered a backup supply in our favorite colors. We are very excited to now offer this option to our clients along with traditional color and foundation application. A special thank you to our new friends and Kara and Lea who not only subjected themselves to the learning process but offered great feedback along the way!!

Home Makeover 1

Our family has a new home that needs a makeover. It is beautiful in so many ways but could use an update and an infusion of  personality. What better way to transform a space than with color? As a makeup artist color is so important to my world I thought it would be fun to blog about the process.

I started by choosing  a palate of colors that I can use throughout my home. After much searching the Sherwin Williams collection entitled “Urban Organic” won me over. I love the options of vibrant colors mixed in with peaceful neutrals. To help with final selection we called in the expert- the Sherwin Williams decorator made the trek out to our country home  and went room to room with me choosing shades. Her expertise saved me so much time and money! This home is flooded with natural light and requires more depth of color than I could have imagined. With list and plan  in hand I was able to head to the store and purchase enough paint for 6 room makeovers- confident that all rooms would have their own character and also coexist peacefully within the home.

I can makeover a face in just 30 minutes or less…thinking this project may take a little longer. Stay tuned for the play by play!

Enhancing beauty, creating confidence and having fun with color!

Orange Lips steal the show

Orange Lips steal the show

One of my favorite makeup looks is simple defined eyes combined with an intense lip color! This is a look that is often considered vintage but can also be very modern and always fun! For Lauren this is a signature look! Check out how she uses Mary Kay’s “Firecracker” as a pop of color for her neutral outfit.
