This is a recent venture which was founded with my good friend and business partner, Alison Preuss who owns 'The Frockery' - a small online boutique based in Angus, Scotland, specialising in vintage, retro and recycled fashion that doesn't cost a fortune and, literally, won't cost the earth! Alison is very experienced and has fantastic outfits. http://www.frockery.co.uk/ http://www.twitter.com/frockery

Samantha McEwen is a young, talented fashion designer who as well as taking the fashion world by storm is also a fellow Dundonian. Her label is'Isolated Heroes' and her work is unique, colourful and bold and therefore my hair and makeup had to reflect this. Sam's work sells on ASOS and with photographer Emma Alexander, models Sula Powell (Superior) Ciara Howie (Colours) and Josh Liandrou and Stefania Ottelli Zoletti  (Superior) we created some striking looks for the 2 shoots. Hair assistance:Anna Pillans and Nikki Rice.

 Samantha and Dundee's other amazing fashion designer Hayley Scanlan are both nominated for The Scottish Fashion Awards 'Young Designer' and Philip Stanley Dickson who I've worked with a few times on magazine shoots is nominated in the Scottish Photographer category-good luck to you all, I'll be there cheering you on.

Hello everyone -it's great to be back blogging about all things in my hair and makeup world! I can't believe I haven't updated since Nov '11-it's been so busy, however I want to keep you all updated about what's going on in all things SC Makeup Artistry. Since then I have had the pure joy of being involved in many weddings all over Scotland and also Brides flying in from all over the world to be married at our wonderful Scottish Venues and Castles. I still have some bookings left for some dates this year and am steadily booking up for 2013, I have had requests for 2014 but am afraid I don't reserve for so far ahead (no Diary!) I hate to disappoint and have had up to 3-4 requests for same date weddings so please book early for your Special Day. Here's some images of some of my beautiful Brides...and also special thanks to Anna Pillans and Laura Baird for hair assistance at my larger weddings.  Read on for further updates...

Roxburgh House/Macmillan Day Care

I am now providing monthly makeup sessions and tips in a therapeutic setting for patients receiving specialist palliative care. The first session was very enjoyable and rewarding for me and from the feedback the patients enjoyed it also-looking forward to the next session in a couple of weeks time. The staff do an amazing job and it really is such an uplifting and happy place. They are also collecting for the Romanian Shoe Box appeal so if anyone would like to donate toys, toothbrushes, pencil, paints etc o anything a child would like that would fit in a shoe box you can hand in to :

LONDON FASHION WEEK (AUTUMN '011)

I'm delighted and very honoured to have been chosen to be part of Lan Ngyuen's team at LFW and will be heading the middle of September. It is going to be amazing and is my 2nd time at LFW -it is one of the most amazing things for a hair/makeup artist to experience and can only be described as very organised chaos and drama! It's fantastic to be one very small cog in a large wheel and to see the designer's collections and work with other artists and Toni & Guy etc is wonderful. I will be updating on this very soon. Another great thing is I get to see my hair/makeup artist buddy Serena Locatelli who is based in London.  http://www.serenalocatelli.com/
