She is brilliant! I found her doing Sali Hughes' make up for her Pretty Honest book photo shoot and love watching her creating such a gorgeous look. Her In The Bathroom was a good one too, it seemed like she was pretty honest about what she actually used and what she likes. Just a fan thread!

Lisa Eldridge has a video with her also. She's fantastic! I love her no nonsense attitude.

Isn't she great? Just the right amount of eccentric thrown in.

CaptainWarbeck · 06/05/2017 09:53

Yep brilliantly posh and a little bit mad but she seems very genuine and her career is fascinating.

I've learned I should be washing all my brushes at least once a week, using brown eye shadow to line my eyes for a softer look and her brows tutorial on Sali Hughes is great. I wish she would do my make up!!

Also love how flamboyant her hands are when she's applying foundation and concealer sans brush Grin

I love Mary and want to be her when I grow up. Actually never mind the growing up, now would be just about fine Grin.

I'd happily let her slap my face about knowing how good you look by the end of it. She has quite a few videos for Get The Gloss too with Chanel (but products can easily be interchanged) that are really good. The video she did quite recently on Lisa Eldridge's channel about Princess Di is absolutely stunning. The only disappointing thing about Mary is that at some point you come to the end of the line with available videos and you're left stammering, 'Now what?' Sad

I love her , I watched an old 90's series of makeovers on Netflix , this gorgeous pale redhead won a makeover and Mary was to do the makeup. The pale redhead said she wanted a spray tan as part of the makeover which Mary politely told her was a bad idea but she would gladly make her up with bronzer , knowing it would look shit.
Girl was made up , looked horrendous ..cue Mary smugly saying ..shall I show you how to look beautiful darling ?. Girl was then made up with subtle makeup and looked great ..sheepily admitted her errors..was great.

ggirl which programme was it? Sounds like something I'd be interested in Smile

ChardonnayKnickertonSmythe · 06/05/2017 11:28

Her videos for into the gloss are brilliant.

margaritasbythesea · 06/05/2017 11:43

I would like to know that to ggirl

ggirl · 06/05/2017 18:44

God so sorry , I can't remember the name of the show , Ive trawled through netflix and 4on demand and can't find it .
It was a tabloid /magazine sort of tv show .She wasn't main part of it and I think at the time she was an unknown makeup artist .

margaritasbythesea · 07/05/2017 15:16

Not to worry. Thanks for looking.

Bishybarnybee · 07/05/2017 15:22

Surely SG has make up on at the start of that video?

Bishybarnybee · 07/05/2017 15:23

Sorry, I mean Sali Hughes has make up on at the start of her "natural look" video.

applepineapple · 07/05/2017 16:30

bishy she does have lash extensions on but I don't think she has any base makeup on

ggirl thanks for looking anyway Smile
