Love, Bonito in Fide Fashion Week

And congratulations to Love, Bonito!!
For marking a huge milestone in their business after the collaboration with Haute Couture designer, Julien Fornie!

Feel so happy for them and of course I got my eye on some of the pieces that was launched at the Fide Fashion Week at Marina Bay Sands. :)

When the news was announced that we get entry into the show, I was super excited. I was thinking: Finally I get to be in the midst of the buzz instead of my usual backstage for work.

Although as Love, Bonito's sort of "In-house" hair and makeup artist, I didn't get to doll up the runway models.
But fortunately still, I was called by Rachel to help with her hair and makeup for the event!!
So priviledged to have this opportunity!

I absolutely loved the vibes (especially the confetti) of the whole show despite having to queue and wait for over 1hr in my sky high platform heels!!

*On a Side note:

This is Rachel for the Fide's Press Conference where I did her hair and makeup too!

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
