MY MAKE UP FOR #MCBLOGAWARDS16

My #MCBlogAwards16 experience was absolutely amazing in every aspect!

And as promised in my Special Awards Post, I will make a special reference to the outfit and make-up details of my big night. For my makeup of the night, I trusted my beloved Shiseido once more.

Through the course of years, you might have noticed my huge crush on the brand's products – that is the reason why I trusted Shisheido with my Beauty Masterclass, the exclusive seminar I organise for flight attendants at my new career center, THE VIP EXCELLENCE. Shisheido's Creative Director Vangelis Thodos, shared his best beauty tips for elegant looks and you read all about it at the special beauty post right here.

On the day of the Awards, I visited the all new Shiseido Experience Center right at the heart of Athens, to do my Make Up for the night. I'll say nothing about how elegant and stylish the Shiseido Center is – I'll let the photos speak for themselves. I'm just going to say this: one visit will travel you back in time and it will be a journey with one the oldest cosmetic brands in the world. The special timeline board that welcomes the visitor, captures the greatest moments of the brand throughout history.

For the Marie Claire Blog Awards night, I chose a super sparkling The KNLs dress, a nude pair of shoes by Steve Madden, a Bottega Veneta clutch and a double wreath / lifetime piece by Angelo di Spirito Rosa which added the final touch to my late 20s look. My Make Up was exactly as I had imagined it to be: smokey eyes with intense lashes, a smooth, perfect base, strong contour and natural-looking lips. I left the details to Shisheido's Beauty Expert, Angeliki, who made sure I would get a stunning look exactly like I've imagined it.
