Earlier this year, I had the pleasure of working with one of Kenya’s finest Entertainers Avril. The experience was amazing, she was an absolute joy to work with. Here are some photos from that photoshoot. Her hair was styled by the amazing Ronnie. Photography by Gabriel.

You can read up a little about their backstory here. I recently did a St Patrick’s Day inspired tutorial for instagram. View this … More Zaron Cosmetics
The day of this shoot was the first time I ever met Sheila Kanini. She’s a model, and the first runner-up Miss World Kenya 2017. I noticed immediately that she’s a makeup Enthusiast, she let me go all out, no micro-management (MUAs in the house say Alleluia!). I didn’t plan on this becoming a blog post, … More Silver glitter x Neon pink Lips
Last week, I got a chance to try out some matte lipsticks from Joy official. I even had a collaboration with the brand for a Mothers Day giveaway.

This second part is focused on my most requested bridal looks for white weddings. Although most of my clients prefer matte nudes, I added … More Bridal Makeup Inspiration. Pt. 2.
It’s wedding season! Yay!. Since bridal makeup is what I do mostly, I tried to time these posts (it’s going to be in two parts) for the start of one of the two busiest wedding months (the other being December) in Kenya. Muslim weddings are usually an explosion of colour and style. The wedding attires, beautiful … More Bridal Makeup Inspiration. Pt. 1
OMG! This was the dream team right here! When I see what we were able to do in 2 hours, I’m just happy. I mean, this photoshoot almost didn’t happen because of a disastrous appointment I had right before. I was soooo mad, that I felt physically ill, But we’d been planning this shoot for … More Sunshine x Sheila Ndinda x Lyra Aoko
