UNVARNISHED

Received an email the other day:

“Hej Helena! Du nämnde i ditt inlägg om Swedish Beauty & Cosmetics Awards 2016 att Annika var helt osminkad på galan. Kan du inte visa en bild på hennes egna tatueringar i ansiktet så att man får se hur det ser ut? Är så sugen på att tatuera både bryn, ögon och läpparna, bleka tänderna och färga och permanenta ögonfransarna hos er innan sommaren och vara DÖSNYGG på stranden och sen aldrig behöva sminka mig mer. Men är lite osäker på hur det ser ut egentligen, dina tatueringar är jättefina men ganska diskreta, jag vill ändå se sminkad och fixad ut hela tiden. Tack för en bra blogg! Kram, L”

As I said, we are planning signage for our large windows in the salon, and I play photographer full time almost;) The other day I took a picture of beautiful Annika who started Creative Make Up, and is THE Annika who does all the nice eyebrow tattoos I have put on published in the blog now and then for several years now. So incredibly fascinated by this still!

Annika herself never puts on make-up anymore, and by never does I really mean never. She is a skin care nerd and has products in her fridge at home instead of food, and is a diligent user of lip balm, but she does not use makeup at all!

Look how beautiful she is:

Annika has tattooed:
Eyebrows
Smoky eyeliner up and down, on the top it is smoky with both black and brown
Light aligns along the waterline and highlights in the corner of the eye
Freckles
Lips + highlighter in the middle and around. Her lips are about an inch wider than her natural lips!

French:
Annika colors and permanents her eyelashes regularly so that it looks like she has mascara constantly. She also uses Beautylash to lengthen their lashes.

Cool huh? And so nice! Had I not blogged about makeup, I would have tattooed in as much right away, no doubt about it :) She wakes up like this, bathes like this, trains like this, completely crazy!

Blir ni sugna? :)
