Familiar Faces: Aaron Smith Henrikson take 3

The Gucci Satin Matte Foundation is finally out in stores and celebrity makeup artist Aaron Smith Henrikson was in Dubai again for a 3-day event held by the brand at both Mall of the Emirates and The Dubai Mall. After an initial confusion and mix-up with appointments on the first day that left me very frustrated, I was lucky I was given another appointment on the third day for a chance to get my makeup done by him.

For me though, the experience always transcends his profound makeup skills. Meeting with Aaron has become more of a habitual train of discussions that always leave me feeling very giddy and invigorated. It’s not everyday that I get to meet with someone who literally travels the world and has a penchant and unquenchable thirst for people, languages, cultures and most importantly, fashion! Needless to say, I left Sephora walking on clouds…
