Beauty Without Filter

[bwof]

Hello!

ATIQAH HO HERE!

Been roaming around with my makeup luggage for almost 5 years now!

Mostly in Production & Bridal makeup.
Facepainting and Special Effects are my hidden passion as well.

Some of past works include dramas for Mediacorp (Tanglin 2016, 2017), movies for Warner Brothers (Crazy Rich Asians,2018), TVCs for Ministry of Environment and Water Resources (MEWR), Harmoni rice and so much more.

Versatility is my strength- because I believe that everyone has different skin types, flaws they wish to hide and features they want to bring out.

As a makeup artist, I would always recommend my brides to go for a highlighted hair if they are looking for a more textured hairstyle.
Let us take a moment to appreciate the beautiful unique bouquet by @twistthewillowtwig

Here are some of my top favourite liquid eyeliner. Good things must share.

If your eyeliner still smudges, try using an eye primer first. Top it up with a translucent powder on top of your eyeliner to seal it in.

 

[bwof]

Changing a look to create a different vibe is one of my favourite things to do as a makeup artist!
Let me know if u prefer @bimbiboon in a demure Korean look or this classy bold look!

Natural bridal makeup for Theodora.
The art of making a natural makeup glow and accentuating the features.

 

[bwof]

It’s more than just what hairstyle suits your face shape but also if it matches your gown, theme and bouquet!
I always take pride in customising hair accessories for my brides to make sure that all syncs in nicely for the BIG day.

Fittest and friendliest client I had. Such a motivation. When she is a true example of keeping fit and it shows in her skin too!

 

[bwof]

This International Womans’ Day, I will be doing a GIVEAWAY for new mothers!
It is definitely tough adapting to life with a newborn and post natal blues is real.

I’d like to extend a full hair and makeup session to one lucky mother.
Hopefully this will make your day.

1) follow me
2) like my post and share a tip/hack that worked for you as a mother.
3) tag another mother who deserves a treat.

This shoot was just perfect. Perfect model, setup and crews.

Videographer: @ravetay_

[bwof]

Sometimes, having a simple dress for your ROM and radiant makeup is perfect too. Added some hair accessories for @joylst to add some bridal element to her ROM.

 

[bwof]

When it’s just a simple shoot, that leaves you with more creativity for a brighter and more colourful hair accessory.

 

[bwof]

MJ found me on @singaporebridesweddings and chose me for my natural coral makeup style.
It was such a joy dolling her up for her ROM.

@23.5nsingapore sent over these jelly mask and I love it for 3 simple reasons:
1) the ingredients are so clean and it is cruelty free
2) it minimised the appearance of my pores
3) it give me an instant brighter and radiant complexion

One of my plans for Beauty Without Filter is to focus on the hair accessories. So many of my brides and friends have encouraged me to do so.

Yay/ Nay? ‍

Are u guilty of any of this? You might be not fully reaping the benefits from your mask.

 

[bwof]

Natural, real and long lasting makeup. Just like their love.
It was a joy dolling up for @cherylangxuewen . She wanted something natural that will last throughout her shoot. And the photos turned out great @weddingauthors
