Fretzie Bercede , Pilipinas Win Na Win Guesting, Sept. 4, 2010

Look:  Summery Natural Look

I never thought I could buy a Kryolan foundation.
I wanted to get one since the day I heard about it.
It was during the basic make up artistry class that
our professor introduced the brand to us.  I also found out
that it was a brand that many of our top local make up
artists & female celebrities use.  This really made me
want to get it more.  I checked if we have Kryolan here.
And we do have- 3/F, Unit T03, Il Terrazzo, 305 Tomas Morato
cor . Scout Madrinan Street, Quezon City Philippines.
Phone:  +63 2/332 4211.
The problem was it may be a bit pricey for me (the cheap
person that I am hehe).  But I was still able to get a palette
not so long ago when they had a promo sale.

Foundation:  Kryolan Ultrafoundation (Fair Olive & LO)

I remember the first time I did the make up of PBB Teens

3rd Big Placer,Fretzie Bercede, for the Manila Bulletin

Students & Campus Section.  She was w/ the rest of the PBB Teens

2010 Big 6.  The first ever eye shadow product I used for her

was the Revlon Skinlights Color Lighting for eyes &

cheeks (Terra).  For me, it was really flattering

on her eyes.  It appeared natural yet glam.

Eye Shadow:  Revlon Skinlights Color Lighting for eyes & cheeks (Terra)

*the Revlon Skinlights Color Lighting is a limited edition eye & cheek product which can't be bought in any local stores anymore.  You can email me if you are interested of getting a brand new one and will try to get some.

I admit that I did not buy the whole Face to Face Make Up set

that my make up school encouraged us to get for the whole

Basic Make Up Artistry Course.  But I do admit that there

are a few products that help me achieve the look I want.  Until now,

I would still use the chocolate brown foundation of Face to Face

for shading or contouring.  I'm more of a creme-type fan when it comes

to contouring products.

Contouring / Shading Creme:  Face To Face Foundation Creme Compact (CU7)

I just bought this two or three weeks ago.  I have this in color
Gold & Violet.  Why did I decide to get the black one for
Eye lining purposes?  Because a fellow make up artist
told me that it never smudged even after 3 major emotional
moments of her cousin during a debut celebration. Plus, it's cheap.

Eye Liner:  Maybelline Eye Studio 2 in 1 Impact Shadow Liner (Black)

You will always find a Maybelline waterproof mascara in my
make up kit.  It will always be one of the best brands when it
comes to mascara.

Mascara:  Maybelline Volum' Express Cat Eyes Mascara (Black)

Blush:  Revlon Matte Blush (#002)

Any stylish girl can survive the fashion world with 2 shades

of matte lipstick (dark & light) & a clear gloss.  You can either

wear it matte or glossy.  For glossy look, you just have to

put on a little clear gloss on top of the middle area of both

the upper & the lower lip.

Lipstick:  Revlon Matte Lipstick (#002)

Look:  Fresh / Natural w/ Dewy Skin Effect Look

Until now, I'm amazed w/ mascaras that make my lashes
look longer.  It was not a very long time ago that a 
friend showed me a mascara that does that magic.


For the Lashes:  Revlon Grow Luscious Mascara (#002)

If you've seen the brows of some of our top local female
celebrities like Kris Aquino, Sarah geronimo, etc., Like me, you'll
notice how full & a little light they are.  I've been in love with eye
brows like that.  This inspired me to recreate it on my clients.


For the Brows:  Revlon Brow Fantasy Brunette

Foundation:
Kryolan Ultrafoundation (Fair Olive & LO shades)

It took me awhile to decide what eye shadow shade to use for a

Hawaiian themed party.  At first, I thought I should be dealing

with bright shades because it's about Hawaii- beach & flowers.

But this made me remember that putting make up is not just

putting bright colors.  It's about correcting some facial parts

& making them look pleasant or even better.  It really depends

on the shape of the eye.  In this case, she has a not-so prominent

eye lids which made me do a bit of a subtle smokey eye look

on the upper area using dark brown.  On her eye lid, I put a bit of

color using the Olive Green (for creative effect when she closes

her eyes).And on the browbone area, i put the shimmery

beige eye shadow to highlight it.

Eye Shadow:

Revlon Colorstay 12 Hour Eye Shadow Quad (Neutral Khakis)

This day was a really hectic one.  Earlier that day, I had

a photoshoot for the new ABS-CBN TV Series, "iDol"

starring Sarah Geronimo & Sam Milby.  I did the make up 

of Sarah G.'s villain in the show, Emmanuelle Vera

(I also have the same name & nick name btw).

After that, I had to leave the set to make it to Fretzie's place &

do her make up for a 7pm call time (take note, i left the

set at 5:30pm & I still have to do Fretzie's for 45 mins to an hour).

But I was able to be there & finished her around 7-7:10pm.

And we made it at the party.

I saw this white eye liner technique from Ruffa Guttierez

when she was still in The Buzz.  At first, I thought the idea was

a bit silly.  But after seeing the technique specially from some

Hollywood celebrities, I changed my mind and decided to

recreate it once in awhile with my clients.

Lower Waterline Eye Liner:  Revlon Matte Luxurious Kohl Eye Liner (#004)

Blush:  Revlon Matte Blush (#002)

This was the first ever Revlon Colorburst Lipstick shade

I used for Fretzie.  It's turning out to be my fave shade

for her.  It looks good on her, doesn't it?

Lipstick:  Revlon Colorburst (#025)

Overall Look:

So far, this make up session with Fretzie was the most

stressful from the 4 make up sessions I've had with her.  Maybe

because I didn't have much time to do it.  There was a bit of

confusion with the call time.  Can you imagine we started

doing the make up at her place then moved to the ABS-CBN

 studio unfinished?  The good thing was when we got there,

the production team of Simply KC was still preparing for the

episode so I got to have enough time to finish the look.
