Makeup Bizz

Visit Site

Makeup Bizz is a site I developed for my mom’s friend, who works as a makeup artist part time. I actually created a site for her during my senior year of college (before I really knew what I was doing), and it was not good. I volunteered to redesign her site because I felt bad about how terrible it was. I am much more happy with this design; I feel like it has kind of like a classic feel to it.

There was one design element that the client wanted me to carry over: the lipstick smudge on the right hand side. I think it works pretty well on the new site because it gives the site more balance.

My role in this project was everything: the design, the slicing, the JavaScript image rotator on the homepage, and the contact form. I also used sIFR on the homepage to have the words Elegance. Style over top of the branding images. I used the Dean Edwards’ IE7 scripts and a lightbox effect for the portfolio as well.
