Tina is proud to announce she was shortlisted for “Make-up specialist of the year” category for the Professional Beauty Awards 2011. Tina went to London on the 24th of November after designing a “red carpet event” look and then demonstrated this on a model. She was then interviewed by a panel of Make-up pros and beauty editors, including Eve Oxberry who is the Professional Beauty editor. Tina was not lucky enough to win, however, she was very happy to have taken part and be a finalist.

In 2009 Tina received a lovely e-mail from top celebrity make-up artist Mary Greenwell! : “Wow! Your pics are beautiful! I am sure you are doing really well. You deserve to.” High praise indeed from someone who I respect very much. How nice of Mary to take the time out of her busy schedule.

Tina met with Paul Herrington in August 2009. He is Bobbi Brown’s head of Artistry in the U.K. She picked up lots of new tips and make-up ideas to show to her clients! Paul’s celebrity clients include Kim Cattrall and Amanda Holden. Contact Tina for a one-to-one make-up lesson. She can show you how to look your best in ten easy steps!

Tina is looking forward to working with the legendary Maggie Hunt soon. “Maggie has been a huge inspiration to me since before I even started my career as a Make-up artist, and I am over the moon to be assisting her soon in London.” Watch this space!!

Tina has also been updating her kit to include the beautiful Japonesque make-up artist palettes from Guru Make-up Emporium, London – www.gurumakeupemporium.com plus Make-up Forever’s Smokey lash mascara which is beautiful, it curls, defines, lengthens and is waterproof! Tina also loves using Shu Uemura false lashes.
Tina enjoys watching Sam and Nic Chapman on Youtube, they are fantastic make-up artists and have a great website – www.pixiewoo.com (incidentally Maggie Hunt is their Aunt!)
