Whitney's Wedding

I loved doing Whitney's makeup! Of all the weddings I've done so far, she is the only one who wanted COLOR! So I was excited to do her eye makeup! We went with a darker green and did a lighter version of a smokey eye [which, went awesome with her beautiful red hair!]

Faccia Bella

I've started working with Faccia Bella again, and have been busy lately doing wedding "trials" (bride practice makeups) and weddings! This month I am going to be SUPER busy with weddings! Pretty exciting! Later in the month I also have a photo shoot/portrait session I'm doing with around 7 people! Its exciting getting to work with all the brides, but I'm glad its not full-time :) I enjoy the part-time employment with my daughter here now :) I do not have any pictures from the wedding I did a few weeks ago, but as soon as I get them, I will post!

Day 6: 21 day challenge

HA! So I totally did NOT keep to this challenge! I think I really just wanted to get those few areas I never clean, cleaned. But I did another closet the other day, so I'll post the before and after pics. Buckets, small shelf & liner were purchased at Big Lots.

BEFORE
oops...I deleted this picture from my computer!

I used MAC eye shadows; Urban Decay eyeliner in blue; Smashbox Mascara in black

53rd Grammy Awards

I must say, I almost look forward to these big events just to see what "grand" ideas celebrities come up with next. I've always wondered if they pick what their wearing & how their hair & makeup are going to be done; or if someone picks all that for them? I'm all for new ideas and being creative, but wow, some of the looks people try to pull off, well, I just wonder ha! I do love how they take a look from the runway and re-create it for the red carpet.

This year the trend that I saw was green eye shadow, false eyelashes and nude lips. If this is what the spring look is set to be, I LOVE it! Almost a tribute to the 70s makeup style!

Here are some of the top makeup looks that I personally loved!

Rihanna

Red/mauve eye color; Beautiful dark lip
