This weekend, I was honored and asked to speak at HU's 6th Annual Cover to Cover Magazine Conference. I will be speaking on the Blogger's Panel *The Secret Life of Blogs*, with the likes of such other well known Magazines. Focusing on the internet and the advantages of web presents, as well as how multimedia has changed journalism, and the how-to's of journalism and blogging.

Wanted to post something fun today.. Its Friday!! I wanted to share this earlier in the week, but had been so tied up with Editorial post, faces and such.. Nevertheless, I got to do makeup for a fab 'Sweet 16", that was so fun. I think I enjoyed so much, because I had no idea what I did for my 16th birthday.

Hello ladies, I hope you had a wonderful weekend. I had a hectic, but fun filled one and have pics to share! But I also, wanted to share with you a question, that I have heard from many of women, but also one that was sent it, and thought it may help you as well...
Great News! BOBBI BROWN is offering 25% off on all Bobbi Brown prodcuts for a few days only!

Because I use powders on brows for most of my clients, it is so refreshing to turn to this pencil to fill in the sparse areas, as well as groom the brows as well. It may be a tad expensive for what you may want to pay for an eyebrow pencil, but it works! From caucasian to african american women, there is one for you..
Ladies, this is serious business! Are you low rider jeans riding 'too low', and/or tired of the embarrassing accidental peeks. Well let me introduce you to hip-T. No more unexpected peeks of your undergarments, and no more tugging and pulling.
I have to admit, I was fumbling through channels the other night, and got glued to QVC. I'm so not ashamed, because when they have anything Beauty, I'm tuned in. Well, the other day I caught Bobbi Brown on there previewing, and demonstrating her Long Wear 3-piece Eye Set.
Okay, I have never been one for shaving. First, it takes too long, and second,I never can manage a clean shave without nicks and cuts. It never fails. So, I had sworn off razors, and went other routes.
I also love that it last longer than most razors, and I don't have to change razors every few days.
Marc Jacobs Fall 09, was dramatic and glam. Nars focus for Marc Jacobs was edgy, night clubbing look , strong eyes and bold color. Black shadow laid the foundation for creating the dramatic eye. Artist added cobalt blues, deep greens, bright purples, reds , fuchsias, and glitter!

V-Day is a global movement to stop violence against women and girls. V-Day is also a day on or around Valentines Day in February for which annual theatrical and artistic events are produced around the world to raise money and transform consciousness. The money that passes through V-Day and that is raised on its behalf comes from individuals, corporations, foundations, product and book sales and benefit and commercial performances of “The Vagina Monologues" and is directly donated to grassroots, national and international organizations and programs. V-Day came to life in 1998 as an outgrowth of Eve Ensler’s Obie Award winning play “The Vagina Monologues”.
Anyone who has seen “The Vagina Monologues” knows the play has the power to galvanize and inspire a powerful sense of self and activism. As Eve performed the piece in small towns and large cities all around the world (and eventually with celebrity friends) she saw and heard first hand the destructive personal, social, political and economic consequences violence against women has for many nations. In its first year of incorporation (2001), V-Day was named one of Worth Magazine's "100 Best Charities." In ten years, the V-Day movement has raised over 60 million.
I've been gone way too long! When I thought things wouldn't get busier it did... Between photoshoots, consultations, and events, time just flew past me. I have to admit I'm still catching up from the inauguration. :/
For her eyes, I kept it neutral, and added 2 sets of Ardell Lashes. I used a pair of full lashes that was close to the length of her natural lashes, and then I used a pair of flaired side lashes to elongate her eyes...
To highlight her eyes and brow bone, I used YSL Touche Eclat Radiant Touch Highlighter, my new fav.
Even though it took me like an hour to do her face, it was so well worth it!
