Recently Alma had the opportunity to style Sonja Morgan of the “Real Housewives of New York” fame for the September issue of “Social Life” magazine!  Sonja’s classic beauty presented a perfect pallet for Alma’s artistic vision.

For the cover look, Alma created an ethereal and almost childlike look accentuating Sonja’s flawless complexion with soft pastel makeup. Her loose, natural looking waves, pulled slightly away from the face draw attention to her beautiful bone structure.  Sonja’s minimal makeup and natural hair intensifies her dreamy gaze.  The cover shot is a compelling, beautiful image that is impossible to forget.

In this photo, we see a fierce, self assured socialite.  Her “dramatically coiffed” hair, pulled into a voluminous updo emphasizes her elegant neckline, high cheekbones and sculpted jawline.  We see a slightly more defined eye in this shot, creating a feeling of confident sophistication and flawless beauty.

This is a stark contrast from the innocent and demure Sonja on the cover shot, showcasing Alma’s creative range.  Here, Alma has achieved a dramatic, sensual, sultry look with smokey eyes, framed by slightly darker brows and “bee stung”, coral lips.  Alma has straighted Sonja’s hair, allowing her face to take center stage.  Her silky blonde tresses falling loosely around her face fully complete the very sexy look.

This exquisite photo is all about the makeup.  Alma truly accentuates Sonja’s velvety skin and unique features.  A soft shadow, bolder in the crease and corner, opens the eye while a touch of white shimmer near the tear duct draws light into her beautiful green eyes.  A soft, but slightly shiny lip completes this ultra classy look.  Her hair is pulled back, off the face, revealing a perfect hairline in a very flattering, loose updo.

Alma working on Sonja Morgan!

Alma definitely enjoyed her experience with Sonja, commenting on her kindness, intelligence, quick wit and perfect skin.  Alma and Sonja are a perfect pairing of two gifted women and together they made unforgettable art for Social Life magazine.

Sonja Morgan represents the strong, confident, fierce woman that epitomizes the spirit of the Alma G Salon.
