I had the opportunity to teach basic makeup lesson to 2 fabulous gals. Actually, these 2 beautiful girls were former bridal clients of mine! Not only did we have a lot of fun, but we also had tons of laughs. I love hearing all their love stories. These girls made an impresson on my heart and I can’t wait to hear more wonderful stories as they continue the next chapter in their life!

Need to plan a wedding on a budget?  Costco is the latest news on a one-stop-shop of all your bridal needs!

Let’s face it – weddings arn’t cheap.  On average, Americans are spending anywhere between $15,000 and $30,000 for their dream wedding.  So the question is, for those who don’t have the $$ to spend:  How do you achieve this goal?  Luckily, Costco is getting into the wedding scene.  Yup, that’t right – wedding bells and bulk buying can make a happy and elegant union!  Whether you need a wedding gown, engagement ring, to invitations and book a trip to Maui, they have it all!

It’s always nice when you get to network with some interesting people in the hair and makeup industry.  That’s no difference with this years Wella Hair Fashion Show!  You always find people who are so gung-ho about the latest and greatest big things.  This years hair trend is all about revival.  Yup, that’s right…iconic styles are coming back with a twist of modern influences!!!  Bangs are in (whether you have it up, side-swept, or down) and one hair style trend that never goes out of style is volumne. 

As for the makeup application for the fashion show, I wanted to do something a little more edgy and mysterious.  Let’s just say that I had Edward Scissorhand’s look on my mind …so I mixed a bit of cool and warm tone burgundy.  I hope you like!

Beee-uuuu-tiiii-fullll (semi-permanent) eyelash extension done on Ms. E last weekend! It looks so amazingly natural on her!

Loves receiving wedding invitations from her clients!
