Perth Makeup Artist

2021 has been the year for self-care, or at least we’ve decided it is. It’s been a wild ride of Covid and forced lockdowns that some of us have enjoyed the time at home reflecting and re-evaluating our lives. And since we have the time, reviewing out beauty routine has at the top of the list. We can’t make it to our monthly skin appointment so we’ve got creative. Done the DIY facials, check. Bought crazy looking devices, check.

So what’s the best one, does it really work and do I absolutely need it?

FOREO LUNA
If you’re looking for the most hygienic and luxurious way to cleanse your face the Foreo range is for you. It uses silicone brush touch points that massage and vibrate 8000 times per minute to get deep into your pores. Washing away dirt, oil, sweat and makeup without striping the skin or leaving it irritated. Yes it’s a win for me. Luna Original RRP $299

LED LIGHT THERAPY MASK
High tech and strange looking, yes and it might set you back a few hundred but; this amazing device is worth it. LED light of red and blue pushing deep into the low levels of the skin stimulating collagen, smoothing wrinkles, diminishing discoloration and it even helps treating acne, regulating oil production and reducing redness. No more tired looking skin and best thing is you can do it all whilst binge watching your favourite Netflix show. Winning! Dr Dennis Gross Spectralite Faceware Pro RRP $661

MICRONEEDLE ROLLERS
Want to improve the tone and texture of your skin? The micro-needling and derma pens are definitely a big contender, fast becoming one of the most successful beauty treatments at the salon. It’s amazing for improving pigmentation, scaring, fine lines and pores. Comprised of 540 titanium needles varying from 0.3mm to 0.5mm depth. This device is gently rolled onto your skin in a controlled motion to create micro-punctured causing lower levels of trauma. This then tells the skin to heal, regenerate and stimulate more collagen and elastin.
The added bonus is it makes your skincare go deeper into the skin and work harder for you. No pain no gain! Lonvitalite derma roller 0.3mm RRP $60

With the holiday season fast approaching, makeup companies are throwing
eyeshadow palettes at us. Beautiful colours, amazing pigments, various prices
and quality… So how do you pick the right one for a gift or yourself?

Narrow your search: first your budget, this is obvious but essential. Most high
end brands are pretty similar on price, ranging from $50AU-$80AU

Colour Scheme: are you after warm and cool tones, a pop of colour, matte or
simmers, metallic and glitter or all of the above.

What will suit: make sure you choose something that will actual suit you and
your complexion or the person your buying for. Does it suit your personality, the
occasion, the outfit. Can you wear it again and again or create multiple looks?

Are you creative or simple: if you’re a makeup fanatic and often buy products
you can’t use, don’t get sucked into the beauty of an eyeshadow palette these
holidays. It needs to be practical and easy to use; blendable, great
pigmentation, and offering multiple looks for daytime or a night out.

So all that being said, which are the best on the market right now?
Iv narrowed it down to affordable, easy to order/buy in Australia, wearable for
any occasion and for everyone, beginner to makeup junkie.
