It’s been so long since I have written an entry — I’m sorry! In the time between my last entry and this one, a lot has happened. First I have done a ton of weddings already, I attended IBS New York at the Jacob Javits Convention Center, I worked at the MG Hair and Makeup booth at the Makeup Show NYC, and of course, true to form, I have done a ton of shopping. To name a few of my purchases:
The Obsessive Compulsive Compressor
Lip Tar from OCC
The GHD IV Styler
The Nalu Waver
Eve Pearl Moisturizing Primer
In just a few days I will be getting certified to do eye lash extensions with Novalash. This is something I wanted to do since I first heard of eye lash extension and I’m so excited!
Stay tuned for recent pictures from weddings over the past few weeks! I’m doing beautiful work, if I don’t say so myself, and having a great time!

A Multi-Functional Primer and Moisturizer. Applied to face and neck for use under makeup or alone. This light and breathable, non greasy primer will help your skin feel smooth while it helps keep the makeup applied last throughout the day. Created for most skin types, including sensitive. Contains a light almost non existent fragrance.
Eve Pearls Priming Moisturizer came highly recommended to me by my friend and talented colleague Jenise Lockett. She bought it at the Makeup Show a couple years ago and hasn’t shut up about it since. So I bought it this year at the Makeup Show and I now understand what all the noise has been about. This stuff is awesome! It glides on effortlessly, is light weight and leaves skin so smooth and ready for makeup. This is definitely one of my new favorite products too.

Nalu is the Hawaiian word for wave, and—like waves—no two curls are ever alike. This iron was designed to enable a stylist to create hair that looks naturally curly. By weaving the hair through the barrels a stylist can add volume and create many different curl shapes and formations.
The Nalu Waver is perfect for those unstructured day at the beach waves but you can comb it out for a more sleek 1940’s body wave too!

The unique ceramic technology heats up to its maximum temperature in seconds and locks in moisture, natural oils, and hair color for total hair protection. The new ghd styler makes it even easier to create curls, twists, flicks, and waves, while retaining its unrivalled ability to achieve straight and sleek hair too.
The GHD IV Styler is insanely expensive but so worth the money. I generally use it for straight styling but you can do all sorts of curls and waves with it too. It has an unprecedented ability to make even the most unruly of curls submit to silky, sleek straightens. It’s frightening how well it works…

A stunning new innovation in lip color, OCC Lip Tar combines the longevity of a lipstick, with the ease of application of a gloss. Goes on slick and moist, and dries down to a satin finish. Ultra-saturated in color, OCC Lip Tar contains an unprecedented amount of pigment, so a little goes a very, very long way. An intense yet featherweight layer of color that stands up to the scrutiny of Hi-Def Video and Digital Photography, without ever looking (or feeling!) heavy. Meant to be mixed, OCC Lip Tars come in concise range of colors (and black and white!) for a limitless selection of shades made by you!
Like all OCC products, Lip Tar is 100% Vegan and Cruelty-Free, and is also free of parabens and other harsh preservatives. A simple, elegant formula that contains only Castor Oil, Hemp Oil, Peppermint Oil, Vitamin E, and intense color pigments, OCC Lip Tar feels as good on the lips as it looks!
Fun! Maybe not for my bridal clients but great for fashion and editorial. The colors are outrageous, they really do have a ton of pigment, and feel great on. My friends at OCC have so much integrity and are creative geniuses.
