Cynthia’s Style
In Cynthia’s own words:
My makeup style can be very versatile, from natural to drama fashion style . But in general, I like very clean and natural Japanese makeup style and with some influence of Korean style makeup too. I like the saying that eyes are the windows to the soul. I have a slight tendency to keep eyes bright and lively. For hairstyling, I am very influenced by the western style. I like the very classic designs abit whimsically happy hairdos. I love braids, romantic messy updos and simple styles that’s simply timeless.
I feel happy to see my clients happy, the joy that I get when I see the sparkle and happiness on their faces is indescribable.
Some clients has dubbed Cynthia as an eye surgeon where she gives life back to many kinds of eyes. She has a keen interest to give back double eyelids to droppy and single eyelids clients and problematic eyes.
