NEW FACE; TEDDY

Introducing Teddy from Work Models. This cool, calm and collected fresh-face from the Northern Beaches was literally brand spanking new when I shot her, but that didn’t stop her from showing us what she is made of. I love her raw, understated, nearly androgynous look and style. It’s so effortless and refreshing. Check out what Teddy has to say in her Maxmade Questionnaire!

NEW FACE; VALENTINA RUBY SKYES

Skye’s the limit for this new face! Valentina Rose is her name and definitely a favourite here at Maxmade (and not just because she smells like coconuts)! A short time in the business, Skyes flew to Paris to walk for Galliano and later featured in a main fashion editorial for Harper’s Bazaar Australia. With a growing number of advertising campaigns under her belt, I think it’s safe to say this model is a one to watch!

If you think back over the decades, brow shapes is what defines each of these periods and not to mention some of the most beautiful women of the world.

THE ESSENTIALS #9; THE STANDOUT SERUM

There are serums, and then there are serums. The former only really preserve the skin’s current condition and prevent it from ageing, while the latter work to undo the damage by immediately lifting the complexion and preventing skin from worsening. Lancôme’s Visionnaire is the latter.
