FACES Makeup Competition on MBC TV – 1st Challenge

The first week’s challenge on FACES makeup competition on MBC TV “Sabah Alkheir Ya Arab” program was about the “Dreamy bride”.

As one of the 3 judges, I’ll be sharing with you my views on looks by the makeup artists. For me, the below were the top looks by Lina Hussein and Risllene.

Lina gave me a glow in the model’s face by emphasizing on the eyes and contouring the face in such a magical way. It was my favorite look by far.

Risllene seems to be the one who understood the “Dreamy Bridal” message that we were trying to get out of this competition. She had beautiful and clean complexion, and overall her makeup was very dreamy.

The rest of the contestants, such as Ange, Lina Zoghaib and Hadjira, also gave a beautiful results. Unfortunately, each week, one makeup artist will be eliminated. This week’s challenge resulted in Rasha being eliminated. Hard luck for Rasha.

This challenge also shed the light on 2 looks that I thought could have been perfect. Namariq went oriental which I didn’t mind. It was the red lipstick that killed it for me not just because red isn’t dreamy at all, but because the model’s lips were too thin and dark red lips will make them look even thinner.

As for Raffle, everything was perfect until she drew the flowers on the model’s face. It was definitely dreamy and its good for each artist to have her own identity, but she has to ask herself if a real bride will actually want drawings on her face. Apart from that it was a really beautiful makeup.

Next week’s challenge is not an easy one, its the “Mysterious Arabic” with blue being the main ingredient of the color palette.

Good luck all!

A powerful, luxurious and classy brand, these same elements are incorporated within our ‘Mirror’ collection. Months of hard work and planning was facilitated with the cutting edge technology of the Blackberry Z10. Wella Koleston crowned the models and Asma Lmnawar’s hair with trendy hair styles reflected in clean lines of perfection.

Tiffany Hines in AIISHA

As I’m working on a million things at the same time, I haven’t been able to update my blog. In fact, our Facebook Fan Page has been taking plenty of my attention and the reason why I refuse – at this stage – to hand them over to a PR, is that my style is personal. I like to personally describe to you what I liked and what I loved.

This past year, many great events have taken place. Amazing celebrities wore my dresses, beautiful lines were created such as the bridal and more is to come. For now, let me share with you some of what has happened in 2012.

Tiffany Hines attended the The Youth Rock Awards in 2012 wearing an AIISHA Couture short dress. Tiffany is an American actress best known for her role as Michelle Welton on the Fox series Bones and Jaden on The CW’s Nikita. She also stars on the 4th season of 90210, one of my favorite series!

Thank you Tiffany and all who have made this look happen

Ahed’s Look of The Day: Tres Chic!

“A girl should be two things: classy and fabulous.”

― Coco Chanel

That day Ahed was heading to the Palm Beach for a ladies lunch she felt the spirit of Coco Chanel and Karl Lagerfeld guarding her soul and found herself in this beautiful Karl Lagerfeld dress like a piece of art painted with firey red lipstick matching her red sole.

This look made her day and I LOVE it!

Its a mix of conservative, elegante & classy all worn by the wild girl to reveal a hint of her mystery through her looks yet send an entirely different message through her outfit.

For the shoes, she was loyal and went with a Christian Louboutin which reminds me of a “Picnic Day” in the rural areas!

For the jewelery, she went for no other than Chanel earrings. Keeping it simple, clean and mysteriously elegant.
