Im in oman now been here for a few days.
Style is a key focal point. The women here have time or make time to take care of themselves.
We just went to an omani house. Beautiful smells and ornaments everywhere.
The ladies all look elegant and have glowy skin with quite white foundation.
I had sips of qahwa(coffee) and arabic chai(tea)..
They paid alot for their childrens henna but the outcome was not great!
Hence i was called in to rescue the situation!
I will be applying henna here in oman for the next 3 days in preparation of the islamic festival-eid!

Pictures coming soon!

Halimah in Oman

I am in Oman until the 2nd sept..just after Eid.
If anyone knows of anyone out here do put them in contact with me regarding styudying at tibatraining or just generally henna etc for eid!

Shoot for a middle eastern abaya company

We did this shoot at earl's court-velvet gardens(matt;s flower shop) besides the tiba training studio.
I wanted to give her an arabic look, quite bright and colourful to pick up the colours of the flowers around her aswell as pick up on the amazing bling of the abayas.
It is a look i teach,so come and learn girls!

These abayas are not normal ones, they are so beautiful i would wear them around!
I have worn one myself for the britasia tv interview and was proud to do so!

silky tips-is the company

Aziz my friend at airaphotography was kind enough to do the shoot for me and as always gave out the best results as well as vaishali the sweet stunning model who suited this look perfectly!

Hoepfully these pics will be on banners and adverts around the middle east..watch this space!

Guess who tibatraining teacher spotted in town this week!

Ranbir kapoor! He is here with shah rukh khan and anoushka sharma(told me himself!)
bumped into him outside the MACcosmetics shop!

Open pores

ok here is the dilemna, iv hit 33...and my pores are opening, i can see them!
Especially when i put foundation on..so what do i do? i don't want to become like those ladies...you know those old ladies!

I have religiously(am i allowed to say that?) started using estee lauder's idealist pore minimiser

estee lauder's heating exfoliating scrub.

and most importantly, using DECLEOR toner every day...

i am using kiehl's midnight recovery  oil and hoping for the best!

I have noticed if i don't use these for more than 2 days,my skin goes back again, so i guess this it for life!

if you want to know where to get these message me on contact@tibatraining.com!
