Think Spring!

I know it is not even snow on the ground but “let’s think spring” in makeup trends it’s right around the corner and once December is over it is all about what’s new!  You will find trends to be anywhere from Neon Orange and pink lips to iridescent smoky eyes!!  I’m loving it…

Matte Bright Lips this look should be worn with clean eyes loads of mascara and just let the lips speak for themselves!

I am so appreciative to Stela Zaharieva the photographer I work with this shoot on http://www.stelazaharieva.com/ along with Meatta Berry (hair), Diamond and Kiera (models) without them the shoot would have never happen!  Thanks everyone!


Don't be afraid of Color

Ok ladies I have never been one to shy away from color and I don't want any of my clients to feel that way.  This winter looks range from clean with full brows (sorry Boring!) to smoky with red lips!  I prefer RED lips I love then there is a red for every complexion!  For Fare there is the blue red for the tan it is the orange red and for the beautiful deep sisters there are the berry red's.


Weddings!



There was a time when I would say I do not like to do wedding!  Now as I have matured as a makeup artist I feel honored to be a part of a young ladys special day.  I am a part of the start of her new life and that is so special that words can't explain!  If you are in need of a makeup artist on you special day please know that I will treat you like the beautiful person you are!
