'In my Kit' Professional make up artist

'In my Kit' Professional make up artist - Eyebrow makeup

Although there are various eyebrow products on the market, I tend to rely on these tried and tested staples;

Kryolan Eyeshadow powder palette £26.50 - 5 colours that suit all hair shades from very light blonde to black

Tweezerman Tweezers, perfect for plucking out any stray hairs £12.50

MUA clear mascara £1.00 for taming those long, straight hairs and keeping the eyebrows in place.

NYX eyebrow pencil in light and medium brown £4.00 each, perfect for gently filling in small gaps in eyebrows

To keep pencils hygienic I sharpen with a Victoria Loves Beauty pencil sharpener £1.99 before using a new piece of the pencil on each client, this means that most pencils last up to 1 year.

Eyebrow shadow has longevity due to powders not going 'off' so to speak, powders sometimes go a bit 'hard' on the surface which can be lightly scratched off.

I use a disposable mascara wand when applying the clear mascara to eyebrows. Victoria Loves Beauty do the best selection of disposable mascara wands for just £4.79 per pack of 25

Total yearly cost on eyebrow products - £54.78

All the above products tend to last me anything from a year up to 3 years for the eyeshadow palettes and I will normally get through approx. 8 packs of disposable mascara wands.

Getting Married at Mecure Hotel, Brighton

I met Louise at her wedding trial when she said that she really didn't wear make-up that often and was a bit worried that her hair wouldn't look how she wanted due to the colour and condition. Roll forward a couple of months and Louise's hair was the colour and condition that she wanted and I was able to provide her with a hair piece from Annabelle's Wigs to lengthen the overall style for her wedding day. Louise was very lucky with the weather and her hotel room looked out over the Brighton seafront. On the day, I provided Louise and her mum with Gel Nails, Hair and Make-up - Here's my set up below. I always love getting brides ready for their wedding day in Brighton, it's lovely to have the calm sea with the sun shining. Hair and make-up by Amy Prifti - www.bridalmakeupbyamy.co.uk

British Heart Foundation Wear It Beat It Campaign

It was really great to be the hair and make-up artist for the new British Heart Foundation campaign - Wear It. Beat It 2017 - https://wearitbeatit.bhf.org.uk This was a two day photoshoot working with a wonderful team from Killer Creative marketing agency. On the first day I worked with heart survivor's, consultants and surgeons which was great as I got to listen to a lot of amazing stories that people were happy to share. In fact, this is one of the favourite parts of my work - getting to hear about other people's lives and the fact that people want share with me. On the second day, a lot of male, female and children models arrived to have their hair and make-up done so that the British Heart Foundation had a variety of photos to share for their next big advertising campaign. I really enjoyed being a member of the team that created photos for this campaign for the British Heart Foundation and look forward to

Hair & Make-up for the Costume Store's new website

It was great to work with stylist Kate Vaughn and Photographic Studio Imago Photography on this photoshoot providing updated photos for the costume store to use on their website. I was required to apply a very natural make-up with period hair so that the final look could go with all costume changes. The model adapted extremely well and thoroughly enjoyed playing 'dress up' for the day. The costume store is based just outside of Lewes and it is a place where you can visit to buy costumes to be used in TV, Film and Theatre productions.
