\n^{\u2191 Model: Alice Vink @ Max Models<\/sup>
\nFifteen year old starting model Alice Vink <\/em>is a new face at Dutch model management: Max Models<\/em>. (Check}Fashionmilk.com<\/a> for an exclusive interview with this stunning new face!)<\/em><\/p>\n

A couple of weeks ago I got contacted to do a stunning test-shoot with Alice, and with non other than dream team: Toeps<\/a> for photography, Suze Kuit<\/a> for our styling, and of course yours truly for makeup and hair.
\n
\nFor starting models one of the most important things for them to build is a strong portfolio. We all should know from America’s Next Top Model<\/em> by now, right?<\/p>\n

Therefore the fashion industry came up with test-shoots<\/em>: Shoots where the team that’s working that day, does as many looks as they can, so that their model goes home with lots of strong, good pictures.<\/p>\n

This is exactly what we did for Alice<\/em> on this shoot:
\n $\"\"$ <\/a> $\"\"$ <\/a>
\nWe started out very earthy and natural, to really make Alice’s true beauty pop. I gave Alice’s hair a soft wave with my medium-sized curling iron by CHI and finished with some trusty old L’oreal Elnett Hairspray.<\/p>\n

For makeup I first perfected Alice’s skin with my favorite M.A.C Face and Body Foundation<\/em>. This is the only foundation I use on my models as it works on all of them. I gave her a warm glow using my M.A.C “Nude on Board”<\/em> bronzer and “Vanilla”<\/em> pigment.<\/p>\n

I quickly defined her brows her bit. Alice didn’t need too much because she had luscious full brows of her own already. I also defined her eyes very softly. Alice’s face is makeup artist’s dream!<\/p>\n

$\"\"$ <\/a> $\"\"$ <\/a>
\nWe then went ahead and shot some beauty shots. Beauty shots have nothing to do with “beauty”<\/em> itself, they’re just photos closer the model’s face.<\/p>\n

For the beauty shots I decided to give Alice a stunning red pout. I used my holy-grail red lip product: M.A.C Lipmix in “Crimson”<\/em>, an instant winner if you ask me. It just blended in with Alice’s beauty so well, I couldn’t be happier with how good it looked on her.<\/p>\n

I kept the rest of her look clean, healthy and defined.<\/p>\n

$\"\"$ <\/a> $\"\"$ <\/a>
\nFor the last set of photos we dropped the beige background and went for white. Here is where Suze Kuit<\/a>‘s styling really came to life, I love what this woman does with clothes.<\/p>\n

As for Alice’s makeup I played up her eyes a little more by adding warm colors around her lashline. My Viseart Eyeshadow Palette <\/em>in #1<\/em> was perfect for this. And for those of you wondering what that blue nail polish is, it’s Chanel’s “Coco Blue”<\/em>.<\/p>\n
