Fashion Senses
Wow, our first fashion and design workshop was so much fun!
On the wireless
For the past few months I have been making regular appearances on Insight Radio, talking about all things fashion and beauty related for the blind or partially sighted guy or gal.
Permanent make-up... not really something you 'try'
When it comes to doing your make-up in the morning, if you are either bind or partially sighted the process may go one of either two ways.
So tell me…
I have done a few fashion and beauty posts for the Action for Blind People website now and up to the other day, I actually thought that everything was going swimmingly. However, I was recently told by a friend of mine that she had a few issues with my posts.
Make-up safety - you’ve been warned!
My first experiences of make-up involved a number of hand-me-down or rather cast-off beauty products, found in the bottom of my mum’s old bags, my gran’s old cupboards and my aunt’s extremely organised beauty cases.
About face
When it comes to the magic that is make-up, it really is amazing what you can achieve with the right products and the right technique. After all, where would Marilyn Monroe have been without her signature beauty spot, or Sophia Loren without her winged eyeliner and would we have been so taken with Judy Garland’s perfect pout if she had not found ‘her’ shade of red lipstick?
