Pra Wedding Make up : The Shabby Chic White Vintage Rafi & Chintia

So, I'll tell you about this story

Firstly, my ex was introducing me to his friend who was in his photography community, Rafi. 

We talk a lot and we tell each other as a big brother and little sister. I had a boyfriend but didn't for him. 

Then he asked me to make me introduced himself into my friend. 

I tried for several times, but It didn't work out. Rafi is a good guy but also a free man. 

He tried to find a feminine and sweet girl but all the things he need was only a lifetime partner. 

But during his time, Rafi and I just go with the flow, we worked as a team and I was still in finding the truly girl for him, he just like my brother, because I had no brother in my family.

Then, my partner in crime, Chintia. She was my junior class at my campus. 

Sometimes she was being my model, my videographer, my partner, and my best friend. 

She was also a free girl, she's young, energic talented and had an amaaaazzziiing body shape. She was so thin and I really love her! We play, we create a project, and yap, one time, I had a video project and I invited Rafi and Chintia as a team. At the first time, they had no feelings each other and just like that. 

Times goes by, at the next month, in my photoshoot project for my new collection, I decided to make them in a team, Chintia as the model and Rafi as a photographer. After that, they were getting closer, Chinta told me that she liked Rafi very much, and I said : just go on, catch him but try to be tamed hahaha

and for the next month, they were officially  dating then Rafi asked her to marry. I never been happier to know that they are an item now. I made Chintia's make up for their pra wedding photoshoot.

I made a korean girl - look because they were stil so young and fresh. She's still 20 y-o and Rafi is 25 or 26 now. Good for them, I love them !

I give her a whiteliner eyeliner pencil for the inner and under eyes to make her fresh look, a fresh pinky lipstick and a short thick false eyelashes. 

For the foundation, i used Ultima II wonderwear make up.

The glorious beauty

This is the 2nd part of my photoshoot product, I'd like to share the make up tips and my hijab styling that I just did to the model. Here we go! 

She is Nourma, she is so talented of being a model. 

I made a difference look from nadia, as I told you, i got the flawless and fresh look for nadia

but now I'm gonna show you the glamor side of Nourma. 

because she has a sclented eyes, I gave her a sharp eye liner and a smoky eyes look. 

But to make her look still fresh, I gave the white liner for the bottom of her eyes then put a little bit black eye shadow as an eyeliner downside. For the lisptick, I give her Red lipstick from eternally ( I just bought it and I love it. It looks semi matte and so smooth, easy to applied whether you use the lipbrush or just put it by the lipstick on your lips)

here the make up I used for Nourma : 

- Ultima II Foundation number 02

- Max Factor compact powder 

- Shading : Make Over shade and highlight 

- Eye shadow : all mac and I blended the colors

- Lipstick : eternally red colors

- Eyeliner : aubeau Black eyeliner

- Whiteliner : Kryolan white liner pencil (if you hard to search it, 

just use the NYX jumbo eye pencil milky)

and here the look : 

 Blouse : Laguna Blouse by Heviliana 

Inner dress : blue navy basic dress by NODE

 I took the black satin shalw to make the turban, just rope it from the backside of the head, pull the shawl to the front of the head, pin it, rope it, and bundle it. To made a volume bundle and to make it wave-looking, I used some pin to hold the satin shawl. Then I add some swan white fur (synthetic, don't worry) to counterpoise the dark color. Because laguna blouse was just plain and had no pattern , i put a white necklace so it would be more fabulous .

You love it? yeah, me too haha

a Make Up Artist or a stylist ? Both love !

Hola Guys, this is my late post 

a few months ago I was doing photoshoot for my products. yapp all of them are my designs

the first brand is NODE 

I was build this company since two years ago, it's a grow up company, i do all the things by myself. Design what the way it's lookit, design the pattern making, sometimes I even choose the color combination, the shape of the pattern, marketing, branding it, and all the things inside. At the beginning, I even bought the materials in the traditional market by myself, by the public transportation such train, bus, then sew it by myself. 

epic but fun, now i love my job as a designer. 

But i'm not an only fashion designer. I'm a leader of my company. I made the system, I learn about my niche market, and branding It by myself. I choose every font, design, color, place, and all of the people who I worked with. When I design my collection, I also wondering about how do It looks in internet, website, instagram and other social media we had. 

So, you can call me a CEO and an RnD (Research and Development) fo now. 

So every photo session that we held, I always became the stylist. And fortunately, I am a make up Artist, soooo I did the make up and Hijab Style. Hehe. 

well. I also worked with one of the brand called "Heviliana"

It was my friend, she was my customer bought a blazer set about a year ago. And she asked me to manage her brand. Start from design, choosing the materials, until the marketing, branding, graphic design for it's every campaign, photoshoot, public relation, and bla bla bla. All of them by myself. Sorry but I only have a poor quality photo so I can't upload the logo.

it was not for long, just for few months, and you know I had another things to do, my brand is my priority

so, here we go!!!!

there were two models, two of them was not a professional model, but i think they killed it! I LOOOVE them!!!

this is her first shot in front of camera believe it or not, but i think she really lovable, she killed it!

Head : I put the cerutti shawl and put some down earrings on a side to show up her feminine side. For the other look, I put the black vintage sunglasses to make her rock out and stand out, not to use but only for the property. 

MAKE UP : 

I put her Kryolan liquid foundation number 02, some shimmer, false eyelashes, eyeliner, L'oreal semi matte lipstick (i forgot the number) and I put a little natural color of eyeshadow from Shu Uemura. 

For the brow, I really like her natural brow, a truly asian brow, so I only put a oh my brow eyebrow from etude with orange-brown color. And for shading, I used LT Pro shading brown, and some mix color blush on from Revlon. I didn't put the below eyeliner because I need some fresh and natural look from her. oh, the eyeliner was Aubeau eyeliner liquid black. 

Fuala! Got this flawless look!

It's not my first time, but let's begin a new world

Hola people! 

it's not my first time of blogging, even this is my first posting in this blog, i had some blog that i build since three years ago. but yeah, for some reasons, i decide to move on this new life! hehehe

My name is Julia Astuti, people call me Juli, Julia, or Yuli, maybe Yulia sometimes. 

Only my family calls me Lia. yeah, it's my chillhood name actually. 

I was born at 7th of July 1993, that's why my name is July, and really like the 7 number, 7th, and aeverything about SEVEN! hahaha 

I was born and grew up at Palembang, South Sumatera, Indonesia. I really love this city even until now. I start everything in that city, that was awesome. I became an artist, i started my debute, facing cameras, doing art things, crazy things, and so many. All of them i started from zero. all from zero. 

you know, i came from not a very lucky family, we have no car, and our house was only a wooden - traditional house, but we lived happily at that time. Who can imagine, my daddy was become a rich business man, a lecture, a very rich daddy, and he became a taxi driver, a farmer, and then a truck driver. My mom was just an high school teacher and she had three daughter that she need to grow. Not only feed, facility, and happiness. but because of them, my sisters and i can got the education until bachelor degree, all of us at one of the best university in Indonesia, me and my second sister in Institut Pertanian Bogor (Bogor Agriciltural University), and my other sister was at Universitas Komputer Indonesia Bandung. Yap, no scholarship or charity helps from anyone including the government. yeah i know that was terrible, but we could passing through it. i'm not shy and i'm proud of them. i love them very much. It's getting better now since i was at second and three year in university. for them, my duty and my job are really helpful. Now we got better. 

me and my family, too bad my first sister couln't join the family photo,
i miss her so much. I have three sisters and love them all. 

Now i am a 21 y-o girl. i'm in progress of finishing my final paper, my thesis. 

I am also a business girl. I have a clothing line ; NODE , i make the design, i build this since couple years ago. i also a presenter for any kind of events, programs or show. And yes, I am a make up artist too. Maybe it semms like i'm not focus with who i am, but i think it's okay for me, i love my duty, i love of being an artist, i love art. I sing and dancing too, just for fun. FYI, i'll share anything about my artwork, my life, my happiness and my thoughts in this blog. 

Welcome to July, all months are July for me Xoxo :P
