On July 13, 2024, the talented and professional makeup artist and beauty expert Liubov Trif hosted a personal exhibition, showcasing a collection of photo portraits that had previously graced the covers and pages of some of the most prestigious fashion and beauty magazines. The event was held at 8311 N Idaho, Newman Lake, Spokane, Washington State, USA, and turned into a true celebration of beauty and artistry.
The exhibition provided guests with an unforgettable experience, filled with positive energy and valuable insights into the latest trends in daytime makeup. Liubov Trif’s works, which were displayed at the event, ranged from soft, delicate looks to bold and creative expressions. Each piece was a testament to the unique beauty of women and the depth of their inner world.
One of the standout pieces at the exhibition was the photo portrait titled «Shy Bride.» In this work, Liubov Trif aimed to convey that every bride is unique and beautiful in her own way, whether or not she adheres to traditional bridal elements like a veil or a lavish gown. The makeup look she created for this portrait was versatile, suitable for both understated and festive occasions. By making slight adjustments to the hairstyle, the overall look could be transformed completely. The artist skillfully employed the baking technique to achieve a flawless matte complexion and used varying lash lengths to create a soft, winged effect without overwhelming the look with heavy eyeliner. A subtle touch of lavender on the lower eyelid and the use of lavender eyeliner on the waterline added a delicate, airy quality to the overall appearance.
Another notable piece in the exhibition was the photo portrait «Spring,» which drew inspiration from the resilience and beauty of nature. Liubov Trif was struck by the sight of fresh wildflowers being sold by an elderly woman on the street during her commute. The flowers, with their delicate fragrance and vibrant colors, sparked an idea that quickly took shape into a stunning masterpiece. The image of the girl in «Spring» is a celebration of nature’s ability to inspire creativity and evoke a sense of renewal and freshness. The makeup expert who assessed this work commented on how the small, colorful flowers in the portrait resembled butterflies, adding a whimsical and inspiring touch to the piece.
In addition to presenting her work, Liubov Trif also conducted a master class on trendy daytime makeup, a style that is in high demand in 2024. The makeup artist chose this look for its timeless appeal, as it’s a technique that many women are eager to master. During the master class, Liubov Trif shared her knowledge of applying makeup, focusing on universal sculpting techniques that enhance facial features. She also demonstrated how to create a light and stylish bob hairstyle using 25 mm curling irons and hair styling products, offering practical tips that attendees could easily incorporate into their beauty routines.
The exhibition was a resounding success, with a lively and welcoming atmosphere that drew many visitors. Guests were able to see firsthand how expertly applied makeup and a well-chosen hairstyle can transform a person’s appearance, allowing them to express their individuality. The event also featured a buffet with drinks, providing a perfect setting for guests to socialize and exchange impressions.
For Liubov Trif, this exhibition was more than just a showcase of her work; it was a significant step forward in her professional journey. The positive reception of her art and the connections made during the event have given her a boost that will undoubtedly help her expand her client base. With her skills and creativity, Liubov Trif is well on her way to achieving her dream of opening her own beauty salon in the United States. As Eleanor Roosevelt once said, «The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams,» and Liubov Trif’s future looks bright indeed.
