Sexy Nails!











As Mulain was shopping yesterday with MUs Nat and Virg at the YSL counter he noticed the delightful colour combos of their couture manicure sets....fabulous and sexy and different. YSL is such a luxury brand and the texture and consistency of their products is truly amazing! Worth every single penny, rupee, cent...truly! So go get inspired at their counter or on-line and maybe make-up your own combos.




Happy Diwali!

YSL LIPS!

Lovely YSL lips to inspire our shopping trip!



MU Nat's new lip colour Rose Culte! - actually more pink in reality..super sexy!



MU Virginia's Rouge Pur Couture - her first red lipstick! Super posey na? Wannabe Gwen Stefani ha ha!





Nat's new lippie....




Virg's new lippie....




MU-AH!!! Happy Diwali my darlings and hope you are all celebrating and relaxing / partying / being with family etc etc. I tagged along with fellow MUs Virg and Nat to help them pick out their new lipsticks. Intent on Chanel we all forgot that Shopper's Stop at Juhu no longer has Chanel under it's roof....cho chad!! Disappointed for a mili-second we then spied YSL and jumped straight in to trying on bright and bold statement lips. Virg has never been a lipstick wearer and never owned a red lipstick. Mulain was truly aghast...so made her try it on and insist she buy it. Classic and cool, never out of fashion and oh what a pick-me-up! Natasha has not been wearing lippie for a while (but usually a lipstick girl) tried a poppy, sexy pink...Wow! Looked amazing and so current and cool. So the girls left happy and pouting and posing...Mulain is telling you girls (and boys ;) ) ...go treat yourself! Lipsticks armed and ready for action...certainly puts a spring in your step. Age-less style and sophistication! Totally ready for the front lines!

Be a different bride - an original!




Alex Box putting final touches on Kate Shillingford




So it's wedding time eh? Bridal season on? Wedding Belles galore! Mulain went to one of his favourite blogs http://www.littleaugury.blogspot.com/ and found a post dedicated to AN ORIGINAL BRIDE. Go take a look at Kate Shillingford's special day! Lavender hair and a statement mouth with a unique dress and veil which I am sure will be talked about for years to come. Etched in memories. Now all brides are beautiful right? How many are original? Getting married this year? Next year? Be yourself and share the look with the traditional aspects of your culture... remember it's YOUR day...put your personality into your look in some way na?




Had an original wedding? Let me see na???? Would love to see.

GOLD LEAF FASHION!


Mulain LOVES LOVES LOVES the gold-leaf eyeshadow look for Fendi S/S 2o12! The MUs have always loved working with gold leaf and so glad to see it up on the ramps for next year. If you're in MU-mbai head to any artshop to pick some up or Hobby Craft at Kemp's Corner, any art shop should sell gold leaf (and bronze and silver too)...apply with vaseline or Pro-saide for more of a hold - always remember to have remover for this though...Pro Clean is good. Careful around the eyes with this...try the gold leafing on other parts of the face or body? Experiment and have fun my dears!

GET ARTISTIC!

FX Age-ing Stack by Ben Nye

Ben Nye's FX Age-ing Creme Stack



Check out more Ben Nye Stacks!


MU Virginia has just wrapped from her shoot in Jaipur and gave me a super product tip which saved her on her shoot. Ben Nye to the rescue again! What a brand....super dependable and wonderful selection of products, Mulain says go check out all their stacks of make-up from character to sfx to glamour...great for quick fixes on set and also for packing...stacks rock!! So MU Virginia had to do a lastminute.com age-ing on set last night and luckily had packed fat mu's FX Age-ing stack in her set bag. This stack has 5 different colours for different effects from freckles to liverspots to veins to undereyes and capillaries! So easy to manage and use under shooting pressure and gives a great look and finish. MUs Virg and Xavi back to Bombay tonight and I'm dying to catch up with them and find out what it was like working with one of the top Ad film directors in the world! Watch this space!

Quick tan!



MU Virginia told Mulain about a great product she's been using on her shoot this week. Know we've blogged about this little baby before but it's seriously good! Benefit's Talk to the Tan! Great for giving the face an instant sun-kissed colour and glow. Easy to apply and easy to blend in...what more do we need? MU Virginia has been giving her actor a slight traveller's tan...mixed in with posh sweat...Elizabeth Arden's 8 Hour Cream....goes so well together and looks so natural and realistic. Invisible tanning with an invisible glow! If you know what I mean...:).


Batch 7 of pro course are starting their bridal classes today. Wedding belles will be created in class. Mulain can't wait to see the pix.


Happy Tuesday!
