Looking forward to getting back to @_edwardsandco in Melbourne late next week! I’m considering going straight into work after landing from LAX - am I crazy or will it help my jet lag if I push through?! 🤔🤷🏼‍♀️ can’t wait to see everyone ❤️ Here’s a dose of @georgiagibbs_ from our shoot last week to help you through the rest of your day 😛 x

SUPER proud to announce that today I signed with Photogenics LA! ✨✨✨✨it’s a dream come true to be represented by such an amazing agency and its something I’ve worked incredibly hard for, so I’m so excited to start creating beautiful work with their name behind me. For all work enquiries please contact Photogenics Media with the link in my bio 🙌🏼✨✨✨✨ This beautiful image above of @isabeldurant was shot by creative genius @mendozaweiss back in the first week that I arrived here in LA ☺️ ✨

My new gymspo for life - Sports Illustrated babe @georgiagibbs_🔥 Soft natural waves into a cute low pony on the nape was the go-to for our shoot with @megbatphoto 👏🏼 Here’s a trick to getting perfect 2nd day waves : start with something a little bit ‘more’ than what you want so that you create a memory in the hair, then mist over the top with a lightweight prep spray while you rake it through from the top with your hands. 🤲🏼 (I love the Foundation Mist by Oribe) G’s MU is by @jey_ventura 🍒

PSA 📡 I’ve found my new favorite texture spray - Wax Poetic by @oribe - anyone else tried it? I was on set recently with my girl @denaamy and it was an easy way to switch up the look from soft and natural to a more defined texture with separation and second-day-hair vibes. It has a soft sheen to it so it works really nicely on hair that’s dry on the ends (🙋🏼‍♀️) It’s unlike any other product I’ve tried. So into it!

I mean.... 🏹 @georgiagibbs_ Girl time today with the sweetest crew @megbatphoto @jey_ventura ... kinda felt more like a slumber party than work but I ain’t mad about it ❤️
