2011 is rocking!

I ended off the year last year with my makeup work at an awesome little spot doing makeup for 2 girls and 1 guy which was to be shot by the awesome Mo from SAMOKA Photography. We had a seriously grunge feel to what we shot, so it was hectic makeup for both the girls and boy - which was an experience for this guy... Never having worn makeup before!
I laugh so hard everytime I steal a guys makeup virginity... Its the most amusing thing putting brushes to their faces, when that doesn't phase the girls much at all, it really bothers and tickles their faces. Very cute, but very sadistic of me in a sick way, but it is amusing to watch... Look out for it next time, the faces they pull are rather hilarious!
I then hung up my brushes for a small break, as I did work my butt off with my makeup and photography last year - amongst all the other things I have on my plate. I had a small 10 day break in Cape Town with my gorgeous boyfriend and one of our friends George. Was an absolutely fabulous holiday... We arrived back in Johannesburg at about 5:30pm after leaving Cape Town at 3am in the morning and having, as Jamiroquai would call it... a white knuckle ride. We dodged a few bullets because my Brett's car is a little bit sick - actually its in need of triple bypass but she did us well to get us back home safely.
Cape Town was absolutely beautiful weather, we were super spoilt! If I could pack Brett up with me, I would move down there in a heartbeat... I mean I've even got my accomodation and work sorted down there!
Back to business now though, lots of great and exciting projects lined up. And I am pretty fully booked until March with makeup jobs as well the odd photography job/ model portfolio in the studio here.
So stoked for all the possibilites that are lined up my way this year, not to even mention how excited I get whenever I think about doing the makeup for Jozi's Next Top Model - starting sometime in February.

Gotta get back to this workload, as soon as I figure it out I need to spam my own blog with some updated images of EVERYTHING I've been busy with - but since upgrading to IE9 I have no idea how to!
Peace, love & cupcakes
