Hi Guys,

I have been super busy on a whole host of different TV shows the last couple of weeks. One of these TV Shows is called the Savage Eye which is a Comedy Sketch Show that will be broadcast on RTE in January.

I had the great privilege of assisting a wonderfully talented Make-Up Artist, Siobhan Harper Ryan. She has had an inspiring career, past work includes Titty Bang Bang and Bo Selecta. You can check out some images of her work here. I learnt so much from her, in particular about applying facial hair and lace wigs, which in the past I did not have that much experience with.

There are so many funny characters in the show, it is definitely going to be hilarious. Keep your eyes peeled for when it will be airing around January some time as it is definitely not to be missed!

Here are some images from behind the scenes:

Crew

The Irish Film and Television Awards were on recently and the ladies were out in style! I know that this is a bit of a delayed article, but I have been mad busy…better late than never.

Amy Huberman

I think the style award for the night definitely goes to Amy Huberman. She radiates an effortless glamour and style. She is primped and preened, however she knows the exact measure needed for red carpet perfection. Her fringe sweeps gently across her warm lightly bronzed face, framing it so that your attention is drawn to her dark lined eyes and beaming smile. This look really compliments the gorgeous green dress.

Saoirse Ronan

The leading lady of the night was off course Saoirse Ronan. Not much to say makeupwise, but I do REALLY like her nude shoes, they make her look tall and long legged.

Colette Fitzpatrick

Colette and Amy must have looked at the same hymn sheet because their Make Up is very similar. Again this is a very pretty fail safe look which enhances your natural beauty. The upstyle makes a real feature of her statement jewellery which are so pretty I am extremely envious!

Aisling O’Neill

I always like to see a bit of red lippy on the red carpet and Aisling did not disappoint! She teamed this with a well defined black eyeliner and tons of mascara which ads an extra hint of drama.

A very special person came into the Make-Up Room! I think most of you will know who it is

Chris Eubank and I

I did the Make-Up for Chris Eubank recently, he was really please with the Make-Up and said “you are really good at this you know”. Nice to get some positive feedback. However when he went on the show he said: “I don’t know what the Make-Up Artist has done, but she has made me look bald”. He is such a funny guy! I didn’t do anything to his hair…he doesn’t have any!

He was really impressed with the finish that an airbrush gives and is thinking about getting one. I use the Graftobian walk around system.

It is a water based make-up that gives the skin a flawless naturally matte finish. It is particularly good for television as a lot of the cameras are HD and pick up every detail!
