THE LOOK

I love doing a smokey eye.  It was the perfect look for this bombshell!  LORI NUIC was the perfect palette for this look.  A sexy smoky eye, defined cheek bones and a soft nude lip.  Classic.

She's not just a lovely face, she's a voice.  And as I discovered during our photo shoot, she's also a pleasant and funny personality.  LORI NUIC is so far the first artist featured on Beauty and the Arts, that I had never personally met before.  My only encounter with her, was when I saw her on stage as the opening act for a friend's showcase.  She performed with her brother and was a lot of what I really love about live music and discovering new talent, and I immediately added her to my mental list of artists to use for the blog.  Not that LORI is "new talent"!  Actually she's world wide.  I was taken a bit aback when reading her resume!


LORI is definitely making a name for herself, and if you think you've never heard her before, you will soon.  Her debut CD 'Red Book Chronicles', has taken her to stages in South America, the UK and the Dubai Jazz Festival.  She has also opened for Simply Red and Arrested Development (just to name two).  LORI NUIC is currently working on her soon to be completed second album.  Be sure to check her out at lorinuic.com
