Against my better judgement at 1 in the morning I feel like I must contribute. It's been too long and since the standards have risen tremendously. I hope I shall live up to them now. Just a little something photographed by Tobias Zarius (copywrited of course) Make-up artist was not credited, so if anyone knows, please inform.

amazing pictures, I wonder what its used in picture 3 or what can be used to make the skin shine like that :)

As disturbing as that may sound, I believe Vaseline would do the trick. Just layering over shimmery shadow, blush or watever would add a different dimention. It's hell to remove.

I think Chanel has some white foundation...if they do no longer have it, try Stargazer!

Shall research. Thank you.

Great pics.
What I use for a white base is from MAC. They have a white face and body foundation as well as the paint stick if you want a heavier coverage. I follow with white Studio Fix.

Oooh... I remember one picture where you got a very even white base. Now I know a secret. Thanks a bunch. I thought MAC discontinued white foundation, but I guess I have more work to do. [beams]

LOL thnks. I can't believe you remember that =)
I do believe that all the white foundations are Pro.

The "money shots"? I'm glad you liked them. I'm a sucker for high polish glamour. I'm sure there is a couple in this community too. :p

for what's done in pic #8 you should use a water based foundation like ben nye's cake foundations. (you can use them wet as a base or dry as a powder) anything else is going to be way too thick for you to deal with. if you ever want something that is heavier then go with the cream and powder it, but don't EVER use grease paint. i promise it's not what you're going for.

Thank you for the info. And since you've mentioned 'cream' would you happen to suggest a brand or two. I wouldn't mind trying my luck with Kabuki make-up but it might require a lot more intensity.

sure thing. i highly recommend ben nye for anything actually. i wear the watebased foundtion everyday. it takes a bit of skill to get a good strong white base on that isn't streaky, but it can even be done with water based. kryolan makes aquacolor that is stronger for that sort of thing. and actually for the shows i've done with kabuki we've used that. if you try it and are having problems with streakyness you don't have enough makeup on your sponge/brush

You're the sweetest thing. Thank you so much for the information. [bounces] Very helpful indeed for there is a reason I don't post pictures of myself here. I will try to do to exactly what you've suggested as soon as I figure out who carries Ben Nye in Canada.
