Private Parties and Make-Up Lessons

This weekend was officially makeover weekend! I had two group waxing and make-up parties and two private one on one make-up lessons. The make-up lessons are probably one of the most rewarding things I do. I have the clients show me their make-up and their usual routine. I re-vamp and clean house and teach them how to use what they have and recommend what they should be using. Simple changes, simple steps and they have a new fresh daily look and they feel so great about themselves and how they present themselves to the world. We have so much fun and I absolutely love it!

Happy Halloween!!!

I had so much fun transforming Monica and her two daughters into spooky Halloween characters. Her youngest daughter, Liv, wanted to be Sally from The Nightmare Before Christmas. I was so excited to find these great spider eyelashes that totally made the look! For her sister, Gina, she wanted to be a pretty pirate. So I used a touch of vaseline on her cheekbones and under her eyes to give her a bit of a sweaty, sultry look. I also used bronzer, blush and a gold lip to make it look like she'd been in the sun a lot. For Monica, the Little Red Riding Hood, I kept her make-up clean and simple so that her red lips would pop next to the red blood from the wolf marks. Transformations complete! Happy Halloween!!!

Kristin's Big Day!

This is Kristin. She's been my friend for over 15 years and I was so happy when she asked me to do her make up for her wedding. Kristin has such beautiful, big blue eyes so I really wanted to bring them out. We used a strip lash that was a bit more natural, cut them in half and curled them twice. I also did a few coats of mascara to really enhance them. Her hair was done by Melissa Smith. To see more of Melissa's work click on her link to the right. Thank you, Kristin, for letting me be a part of your special day. You make a gorgeous bride!

Nikki's Wedding

This weekend I was honored to be a part of Nikki Koopman's wedding. I not only was able to do the bride and the mother of the bride's make-up, but four of her bridesmaids as well. We had such a great time and the girls all looked so beautiful. Enjoy looking at all the fun pictures and check out the girls before and afters in the previous post!

Teen Skin Care & Make-Up Class

Soft and Sweet

Yesterday I was able to meet some great ladies. Emily, Holly, Karen and Shannon were going to be a part of wedding and wanted me to come and help them look their best. Since it was for a wedding and they wanted to look classically beautiful, we kept it simple. Each of these girls had such beautiful, bright eyes so we were able to do great pops of purples and plums on the eyes that enhanced their eye colors. It just worked perfect that their bridesmaid dresses were this beautiful magenta! Thank-you ladies for letting me be a part of this special day!
