Hair and makeup for 插班生 Cha Ban Sheng and The New paper, Levis Feature

These are the two most genuine people I've met and known.
I love them for their cheerful, candid personalities!

Sometimes I am that thankful for the chance to meet awesome people.
This makes life a whole lot sweeter.

I present to you Cha Ban Sheng!

So, in this series of pictures that I took, Carrie mentioned she wanted to look like Kate Moss + Bed hair.
OK!.............And so the joke became that she should be 'Kate Loss' instead. HAhahahah

Carrie and Diya

As you can see, Carrie was trying hard to do a nice sexy pose. They are extremely absorbed in their roles. I was just laughing my head off behind the scenes.

(Diya ultimately showed Carrie how it's supposed to be done)

Till I see them next time!

Im Dolly-licious!!! -Perks when you dress up

Ah hell!! I did not expect myself to appear in the papers with a relatively big full shot of myself!

Lifestyle on Sunday 22nd August 2010.

I probably would have missed it because I don't read the papers often.
But well................. Maybe Not cause I have the habit of browsing the headlines on all the cover pages to check for interesting news worth reading. So, it happened that I was also conveniently on the front page of lifestyle showing a smaller picture of me.

ME!!

Lacy number with shorts and fedora hat

Although it wasnt a feature story of me, I still was quite pleased to see my face on the papers. Any publicity is probably good publicity right?????

HAHAHA

Anyway, the story was on clubs having new gimmicks for people who dress up good to have more rewards in terms of free drinks on Wednesdays, Ladies' night.

I got the Max of 5 drink coupons from Shanghai Dolly in Clarke Quay!

There's this huge guy "mascot" in Shanghai Dolly, dressed in cheongsam (practically in drag) holding up the tags: "Im Dolly-licious" (which I got) & "More effort please!" (which some others got)

A pic with the mascot:

I totally enjoyed myself, and in case you were wondering, Nope! I did not manage to hook any hunks that night!! HAHA

XOXO

ABOUT ME

I work with a team of fellow artists sometimes, which allows us to better ourselves and also work as a group to deliver the best services to you all out there.

Previously graduated with a Diploma in Optometry, I realized that being an optometrist is not what I would be happy working in for the long term. So I decided to pursue the unknown in the artistic industry, which is what I've always been fascinated in since young.

I figured: You only live once, why waste it?

So, after graduating with a hair diploma course from Kimage, I realized styling is what I love most and decided to focus more on getting experience in this sector which unfortunately was not taught in-depth during my time in hair school.

I strongly think that hair should also really go with makeup for a lady to look ‘complete' and that beauty IS the whole package!!

So, I started to read up on lots of information on makeup and went hands-on on my own face and whoever I can get for practice!

Armed with self-taught makeup skills, a hair diploma, and MOST importantly a very determined and passionate heart, I took a huge leap of faith out into a new career path to get more involved in the industry.

I proudly say my forte is my versatility in my style for (with an added speciality on asian faces) and is often engaged for brides styling, fashion and commercial shoots/print ads, corporate functions and beauty workshops, personal makeovers and collaboration with fashion designers, photographers and videographers. (Pretty much anything you can think of)

Being able to do what I love and good at, often keeps me in an uplifted, jovial and cheeky demeanor, making people feel at ease around me very easily.

Currently striving to better my skills with experience and looking to expand my expertise in related hair and makeup projects.

I am proud to declare that I am Cozycot’s 100 most inspiring women for two consecutive years 2011/2012 and want to thank all the people who have supported me so far!

If you would like to read about bits of my life in fashion and beauty or some random nonsense, scroll on down.

"It is ok to be mad, a little madder, or as mad as u can be.

Your parents would still have loved u.

But afraid of hurting them, u would have paid the price of ur dream.

Some people build exaggerated high defences against the outside world; against new people, different experiences and leave their inner world stripped bare.

And that is why, we become embittered people, lacking the will to live or die.

The Embittered, find heroes and madmen fascinating. In the end, both would die. (Heroes offer their lives in the name of a cause whereas madmen would commit suicide.)

But Because they forge ahead regardless of what other people say.

It 's only, at this moment, the embittered person would have the energy to climb up his defensive walls and peer over at the world outside, but then his hands and feet would grow tired and he would return to daily life..........

Yes I wanna be mad and as mad as I can be."

Until we meet,
Gerra
