Bareface, Grazia Middle East, Inglot, Burjuman Center

FACE OF BEAUTY COMPETITION 2011

This past week I attended a  Grazia, Bareface and Inglot affair at Burjuman Center. Beauty week from the 22nd to the 28th of Sept, was a fun filled week, with lots of events through out Burjuman Center. 

Here are the Meet and Greet ladies, welcoming everyone to the event, and handing out giftbags, full of goodies. 

The last evening, of the seven day event, was to take the 6 semi finalists and find the one face that would be the face of Grazia Beauty 2011. Some of the girls were spotted shopping in Burjuman Center, while others were spotted around town. 

The make up sponsor for the event was Inglot

What a fun night, full of glitz and glam! 

For all my photo friends, I took most of these photos with my 70-200 lens, Nilon D3. A fairly slow shutter speed, as I was trying to capture the ambient lighting. I did use a bit of fill light with my SB800 flash when needed. There where hot lights around the stage which gave me enough light to hand hold the camera and not use the tripod, my ISO was at 400 for most of the evening.
If you have any questions, never hesitate to ask!
