Below is a before and after of one of the bridesmaids, Tina, that I did the makeup for. The girls were wearing the most gorgeous black dresses with high black ruffle collars. We went with a smoked out eye. Because of her skin an lip tone, we went with a really pretty berry lip color.
Welcome! This blog will feature some of my favorite products, tips, inspirations, adventures, and latest work!

Birchbox...June installment!!!
It's Biiiiiirchbox tiiiiiimmmeeee!!!
This was an amazing month for Birchbox!! All of the products were selected specifically for summer.
Okay, I won't hold out any longer.
Here is what came in the box this month.
Amika Obliphica Oil Treatment (3.38 oz- $34): This is a delicious smelling oil that is great for calming summer frizz, helping out our dried out ends, and protects from UV rays (yay!). I have very oily hair so I was really concerned that my hair would be an instant grease pad... but it really wasn't. Love this product.
Kate Spade Twirl (Full size: $60-$80): This smells good. It has a floral spell with a little fruity undertone. This is something that I'd throw in my travel bag to take with me on a trip. Something easy to transport (obviously, as it is a little sample) and smells kind of good.
Laura Geller Baked Blushed n' Brighten (Full size: $29.30): I LOVE THIS!! I was given this in the "Honey Dipped." It's a pinky/gold shimmer with teeny tiny sparkles. It is a beautiful product. It's part bronzer, part blush, part highlighter. Totally versatile. Such a great addition to my makeup case.
Pangea Organics Toner for Normal/Oily Skin (Full size: $26): Pangea... what to say... such an awesome company. I have the lip balm-Pyrenees Lavender with Cardamom(which I blogged about a few months ago). Not only does this lip balm smell fantastic but it is seriously long lasting. The toner is the same. It smells amazing and makes my face feel really nice. It's just a little refresher before I put on my cream for the day.
