I have been so busy since last wedding season (Spring) that I have been neglecting my Makeup By Jana Blog! and haven't added very many new photos. I have been busy with 2012 trials, weddings in Jan, Feb and March still waiting on some photos and can't wait to share.
Well March is the start of our second wedding season (Autumn) here in Noosa, Sunshine Coast. I have just finished off heaps of trials for March weddings. With 2 from last minute brides who had cancelled their first makeup art... Continue reading ...

Connecting the Dots
"You can't connect the dots looking forward you can only connect them looking backwards. So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future. You have to trust in something, your gut. destiny. life. karma."
"Because believing that the dots will connect down the road, will give you the confidence to follow your heart, even when it leads you off the well worn path."
"You got to find what you love. and that is as true for your work as it is with love. Your work i... Continue reading ...

I'm in love, love, love with Rachael Taylor's Emmy's makeup look.
I think this photo is a great example of how photography washes makeup out, in the left photo close up the makeup can be seen in all it's intensity and on the right you can see on camera how it just looks perfect... Obviously this is a glam look for Emmy's so it is intense.... But the colours and the bronze/gold/brown smokey eye with peachy/pink lips and cheeks is divine.
Sunshine Coast Work At Home Mum's Mum's Our fan of the week is... Makeup By Jana!

This gorgeous new mummy had her makeup done professionally for her baby/family photoshoot. I think it's such a good idea, sleepless nights and limited time mean that makeup or any sort of beauty routine is non-existent sometimes. So I'm hoping that this beautiful natural bronze makeup helped make her feel extra special.
I have been trialling a product called 'Burt's Bees Soap Bark & Chamomile Deep Cleansing Cream.... after seeing some amazing reviews on it on YouTube. I have to say I am in LOVE!! This product has amazing ingredients, that you can seriously feel working, you can feel the methol tingling and cleaning and you can feel the chamoile soothing. Now my skin is definitely not amazing at all and i've been waiting for it to break me out (like what usually happens when I test a new product)..... Continue reading ...
To all my brides, here is a great tool I use to keep myself organised and manage my time between the zillion computer tasks I have to get done. This times how long I have spent on a task and makes it easy to shift back to a task after you have been distracted i.e. had to answer an urgent email or phone call.
Before I get back to studying here is another 'beauty' my best friend had her makeup done by mwah for a family photoshoot! If you are having a photoshoot, call or email me for a quote... P.S I did her makeup at 8am in the morning and the photoshoot was at 3pm! I think that's pretty good staying power!!!

It's been since March 2011 (the start of Autumn wedding season) that I have posted. Now that March, April & May wedding season is over you'd think I'd have a moment, but no a big wedding last weekend, a massive wedding this weekend with a trial to follow and heaps of bookings to organise and file and only 1 wedding-less weekend for Winter!
I have met so many beautiful brides this season and it has been a pleasure to do each and every one of them. You may notice I have updated my blog which... Continue reading ...
Some more photos from the 'beauty' session we did today. I love this makeup. I am in love with the navy eyes and pale pink lips :-) So romantic but sassy at the same time! Have a beautiful day...
I have just been advised by ABIA http://www.abia.com.au/ that I have the 2nd highest rating out of all QLD makeup artists as the Star rated supplier by brides (the brides favourite service provider out of the whole wedding). Yay... wish I could've attended the QLD awards night!

Alot of people ask me what is in my kit and what brand do I use? Well I am not loyal to one brand, I use a variety of good quality products that I love, are great for bridal, good for photography makeup, suit all skin types, colours and shades and that actually work! Sometimes they are super expensive, sometimes they are bargains, but only one thing matters to me... Not price, but performance. So here is a list of things I love to use... Obviously the post would never end if I listed ever...

I really wanted to share with you a very humble product I accidently started trying 3 months ago... I initially LOVED IT as a moisturiser but wanted to make sure after 3months I still loved it and wanted to recommend it.
Pure Organic Hemp Seed Oil
Yes! That's right this humble little pure oil has been what I have been looking for my skin for years.
These are the benefits I have seen: Rehydration, wrinkles, dryness, acne reduction to 0! and general skin health!

Acne
Being prone to breakouts/blemishes I understand how frustrating it can be. Having tried many products on the market like many acne/breakout sufferers. This is a regimen that has proved great results and it's inexpensive. Benzac is quite strong and not recommended for sensitive skin. If this doesn't work for you I have special techniques for concealing acne with makeup so not to worry if this regimen doesn't work for you prior to your big day. This regimen is important to use all t...

Off to get some more supplies. And thought I would share with you my fave products.
1. The Body Shop Natures Minerals; this leaves a beautiful coverage and is what I use for clients/brides requesting a natural look. As this makeup gives you that natural look but looks completely flawless, I have found it works for youthfull and mature skin just as well and because it is pure mineral makeup it does not irritate brides that have highly sensitive skin.
