Fashion Fridays with Ruth Tarvydas


In November of last year I was accepted to help out with the makeup for Fashion Fridays featuring Tarvydas’ new Sea Mermaid SS14 collection. The collection is based on an under water theme and included a lot of lace, beading and West Australian pearls. The event is held monthly at the Parmelia Hilton in Perth and for many years Ruth has showcased at the events November luncheon.

It was such an honour to be working alongside such beautiful dresses and models. I even met Ruth!

The makeup was to be simple with a bold red lip. We included a thin black winged liner and lots of bronzer. Initially I thought we were going to be running on a strict deadline so kept things simple however looking back I would have had time to add a little more creativity into the makeup. They all looked stunning so it’s just me being a little OCD!

I used different products on each of the models depending on their skin tone / type however the main ones used were:

Chanel Perfection Luminere 30 and 40
Mac Mineralize skin finish natural- Medium
Mac face and body (you cant go past this foundation for models with perfect skin!)
Mac lipstick- Lady Danger and Red lip liner
Mac prep and prime high lighter
Calvin Kline brow pencils in blonde and dark blonde
Ardell brow gel
Nars bronzing powder in Laguna
Mac Mineralize skin finish in Soft and Gentle
Mac Fix +
Mac Black track gel liner
An assortment of bronze and golden eye shadows
