Having worked with Ruby and Oscar for many years now, they know they can rely on me to bring only the best tools and tricks to set to create the perfect no-makeup makeup style that they love to feature so often in their campaigns.  It's not beyond the scope to sometimes play with a little colour to mimic the tones of their stunning jewellery, but for the most part it's all about the au naturale and letting their pieces be the shining star of each photo.
