Arabic Eyes - Purple & Yellow Contrast

Hey Guys,
It's Ruby, I hope you are all doing well.


I created this look after I was approached by a very talented Sydney/Australian photographer to do a photo shoot. I was asked to do a series of Arabic inspired make up looks and to model as well. The eyeshadow colours were chosen based on a series of beautiful Middle eastern materials he had hand picked himself.
If you want to see the professional photographs, I will notify you all via twitter or FB and they will be featured here on my blog.



You  can wear this look with or w/o the yellow to achieve a gorgeous exotic middle eastern eye. This look will flatter all eye colours and shapes so don't be afraid to give it a go.

ELLE Beauty Spread meets Dior Runway

Hey Guys, it's Ruby. I Hope you are all doing well.

As a model here in Sydney, Australia. I predominately do Beauty shoots. If I'm not doing my own make up for shoots, I get the opportunity to work with other skilled and talented makeup Artists around Australia who constantly inspire me everyday. Media is a big influence in today's Society and I too, am constantly inspired by the top make up Artists, hair stylists and designers the world has to offer.

In this tutorial I have combined two of my favourite looks together. A beauty spread from the infamous ELLE magazine and make up from an old Christian Dior Runway show.

Below I have included the images that have inspired me as reference, a list of products I used, and the link to my tutorial on my YouTube Channel - RubyGAustralia.

Hey Guys,
Hold on, Halloween is over. So, why am I doing a costume look?
Well my friends, I recently bough a PS3 game from EB games called 'Batman: Arkham City' and MY GOD..this game (jizz in pants).
I'm a gamer and i love the girls in Arkham city. I probably should have resisted purchasing this game and a PC game called 'Fallout 3' but, who cares! I'm trying so hard to study so hard for my final exams this semester, regardless.
