Testimonial


Hi Sarah! Just wanted to say a MASSIVE thank you for my wedding make up. I absolutely loved it, and EVERYBODY (all 140 guests!!) commented on how nice it was. Not only were you a professional in every way, but your friendliness really put me at ease. Even your brew making skills were fab! Ha ha. On a more serious note, from the bottom of my heart, thank you so much. I'm looking forward to attending another event so you can do my make up again! :-) Xx

Jane B4.  Likes more Goth/dark makeup and pale face

Jane after. Very much a bridal look.  She loved her eyebrows, very different from a black liner.

Helen E Beauty Cubes


I am now selling Helen E Beauty Cubes. These have in them, the eye shadows, liners etc., needed to create a certain eye.  For example, one for a Smokey eye, one for a natural eye, and one for a great foundation base and so on... i also sell all sorts of other Helen E products separately and FM cosmetics. FM are good for really dark Caribbean skin tones.  I can also give comparisons to more expensive products such as MAC Cosmetics and all the pros and cons.  Let me know if you are interested.

College Comp!

What an AMAZING day at college doing practical yesterday!  We experimented with colours, cremes, eye shadows, allsorts.  I worked on Luke who is a makeup legend and then he worked on me.  Luke's look was inspired by Boy George, mine just something i had seen on google images.
I cannot wait to more of these, i love them because they are soo different from my business which is every day makeup, night out, prom and weddings etc.
This was my work on Luke using Ben Nye eye shadows (dark plum, light purple, pink) and a cheapy bright pink blusher.  THAT WAS IT!!

Luke's Boy George look on me.  Used mainly Ben Nye eye shadows, black gel liner and red Mac lip from viva glam range with dark eye shadow mixed in.

We had sooooo much fun! <3 Luke muchly

Our fellow college geek Sophie who was worked on by Jessey.  Wish i had got the full face it was amazing.


Me having blow dried Luke's hair.  Only ever dried mine and my daughters and his hair is soooo long!  Not TOO bad though I don't think.

I will hopefully get better pictures as we are recreating these looks on Wed for an in house competition.  The winner gets to go to an exhibition :D.
Have you ever created 'out there' looks.  Please feel free to send them sarahberrymakeup@gmail.com or tag me on facebook and twitter (links above).

Baby lotion alert

NEVER use this on your face.  It strips your skin.  I was shocked also when I found out.  It is a NO NO!
DONT DO IT

So between preparing for this birthday, they freshers fair and college I have been non stop.
what have YOU been up to...?????


Freshers Fair

Hi guys

OK so last week I attended the freshers fair at Blackpool & The Fylde College.  It was a fun day out.  We had a makeup stall where we offered free makeovers and generally just messed about with some eyeshadow techniques.
As it was for new students there was lots of info on student discounts including dominoes pizza, gym memberships, cheaper swimming, 30% off a cookie shop.....all sorts.

If you are a student buy your NUS card for £12 there are hundreds of offers and discounts.  I know you get discount from New Look and Matalan to name just a few.  INVEST

Here is a cheaky peek at our makeup stand.
 This girl is gorgeous.  I used Cranberry and Embark MAC eyeshadows.  The rest of the face was from the L3 media makeup college kit.

 Makeovers all round, getting used to working on others......

 This girl is beauts.  I think she looks like a proper model.  What dya think?

 Luke transforming Ciara (he is a legend)

Just look at all those eyeshadows.

Even my car has lashes yeahhh

These are absolutely amazing.  what you cannot see is that it also has pink diamante eyeliner.  LOVE!!!!!

Dodgy laptop

Hi guys. Laptop is playing up a bit at the moment but as soon as I have sorted it I will post picks and more informative blogs. Thanks for being so patient!

Photography

Part one nearly complete. Just some homework to do. :D

Always...........!

Going to bed with your makeup on........we have all done this at some point BUT remember it ages your skin by 8 days each time you do. Always cleanse and tone after a hard day! My favourite is MAC Cosmetics cleanse off oil. Great for my dry skin. What's yours?

9 year old Bday / good mood / cheaper tans

Crikey, I now have one!!!!!!!!!
Great day and spoilt rotten was my little monkey.
Put me in a good mood.  Spray tans on offer for September only, take advantage......

Photography course

Right......I've started it properly. Just on the rule of thirds to see how a good picture can make your eyes flow naturally around the picture and draw your attention to certain objects.

Very good indeed.  I'll keep you all posted.......

Retail

As most of you know I usually use MAC Cosmetics. I have now been approached to sell FM Cosmetics and Ezespa / Helen E.
I have used bits and pieces of each product and am happy to answer any questions about the products honestly.
Obviously there is a big price difference between these products and brands such as MAC so there will be pros and cons to both. 
If interested at all please feel free to message me!!

Testimonial from Carol Briggs

AMAZING to read these, makes my job worth while :D - Thank you so much for your feedback!

"Sarah, I would just like to say how good you have made me feel.You came highly recommended to me and I was very wary as I don't  wear a lot of make up and I have never been sure wot to actually do and what really suits me.Straight away you put me at ease with your nice,friendly approach whilst looking very professional.You had the patience and the time to spend talking with me and learning how I want to look.you just knew what colours would suit me and I felt amazing when you had finished.You even got me to try your lashes(and you had small ones so I didn't look over the top) and I loved them.Your prices were well within my reach,very reasonable indeed.i have recommended you to all my friends and I know some have already used you,especially my younger friends for your tanning. Thankyou so much sarah xx"
