A Glam Day In Harlem Doing Makeup On The Producers Of Harlem On My Plate

Before kicking off my day doing makeup on 2 fabulous female producers in New York City I needed my me time. Sitting out back on my deck in Connecticut enjoying my Teavana tea and zen like ambiance of the exotic trees, plants and lake always make me feel like I’m a luxury resort spa. Since mornings is not my favorite time of the day because of my lupus I always need a minute to unwind and loosen up my joints. A little mediation, 10 pills and time with the nature does my body good. Since I didn’t have to be in New York until 3pm I had more than enough time to pamper myself. I’m so excited about tonight event. My clients will be featuring their first featured film, a documentary called “Harlem On My Plate”.

I Love A Tangy Orange Lip For The Spring & Summer

Like many makeup junkies I never wear all my makeup from one makeup brand. My vanity is a mess with a variety of makeup tossed around. I really don’t know how I know what to put on each morning because I have so much to choose from. Today I was feeling all Absolute New York makeup especially their waterproof gel liner in orange. I selected mostly their new collections to wear today so I decided to share with you their 3 new items. Don’t sleep on this brand, the colors are highly pigmented and the price is definitely easy on the wallet. From the mouth of a makeup artist & a beauty expert you will be obsessed…don’t say I didn’t warn you!
ABSOLUTE NEW YORK True Palettes Eyeshadow In Elements $5.99
ABSOLUTE NEW YORK Waterproof Gel Lip Liner In Orange $4.99
ABSOLUTE NEW YORK Ultra Slick Lipstick in Magical $5.99

Caudalie Beauty Elixir Is My Favorite Makeup Setting Spray

Being a makeup artist the last thing that I would want to happen is for my hard work of artistry melt off my clients face. One of my favorite items I must have in my makeup kit is Caudalie Beauty Elixir. It’s part toner, part serum of essentials oils and plant active ingredients. 
I luv to prep my clients face by spraying the Beauty Elixir mist. This step will give my client an instant burst of radiance. It will help to smooth the skin, tighten the pores and set the makeup when done. 
During the summer this item will definitely hydrate the face and the aroma of the citrus, rose water, rosemary, peppermint, and balm mint will help to rejuvenate you.  Treat your clients or yourself to this luxurious item. I promise you don’t want to leave home without it. 
Makeup Tip: Before I use my makeup brushes I like to spray the Beauty Elixor on them. Why not treat your brushes! 

How I Created A Classic Day Look For The Working Woman

As the gorgeous Beyonce would say “I WOKE UP LIKE THIS”. Well as you can see I didn’t but I thought it was fun to show a side of me that I never share. This is usually my regular routine in the morning, wearing my waffle white bathrobe, hair in sponge rollers while I’m doing my makeup. This morning I was going for a classic makeup look, a neutral eye with a strong lip. My look was achieved with using the following makeup & beauty item.
Shiseido Ultimune Power Infusing Concentrate
Stila Stay All Day Waterproof Liquid Eyeliner in Intense Black
Bobbi Brown No Smudge Mascara
Stila Stay All Day Foundation & Concealer in Warm

SEPHORA COLLECTION Creme Lip Stain in Strawberry Kissed
NICKA K NY Mineral Sheer & Glow Bronzer
NARS Kabuki Yaciyo Blush Brush
Anatasia Beverly Hills Brow Wiz in Dark Brown

Happy Birthday To A Fabulous Woman In The Fashion Industry In New York

I spent my Friday night in New York working and celebrating with one of the most fabulous woman I know that work in the fashion industry, Felita Harris. I arrived to Hotel Andaz, a chic boutique hotel in midtown Manhattan. When I arrived to her room it was such a beautiful setting waiting for me even though it was really for Felita. A makeup artist dream that all their clients would greet them with red roses and Ruinart champagne. I think her boyfriend did a great job setting up tonight celebration. So many favorite things I don’t know which item was the best that he arranged. 
I loved this birthday gift where Felita could choose from the three European cooking schools where she would like to go in learn how to cook.

Ruinart champagne is a remarkable tasting wine. It’s exceptional aroma palette is made up of pineapple, pink peppercorn, citron, lemon, jasmine, ginger and cardamon. Almost sounding like notes from a beautiful perfume.

A few pieces of the jewelry that Felita will wear tonight. She’s always traveling all over the world with her job I’m sure she brought these pieces in a fabulous country.  

I decided to set up to do her makeup in the bathroom because the lighting & counter space was best. I just wanted to work in the room with the most rose petals. 

Boyfriend had more champagne delivered to the room while she was getting glam for her party.
Felita’s assistant text me a picture of her dress in advanced so I knew what look I wanted to create for her tonight. In person the dress is just glamxurious. My inspiration for the look was the golden globe statuette. I wanted Felita to look effortlessly pretty with a soft sultry eye in a sheer pink cheek in lip followed by flirty individual lashes. After makeup I bronzed her skin for a gorgeous glow on her flawless brown skin.

After I finished getting Felta glam her older sister Tracey came by and I help her with her makeup as well.Tracey is a talented producer best known for reality shows like; Being Bobby Brown, The Houstons & Boston Finest. I’ve worked with Tracey a few times of some of her projects. While we were wrapping up Felita received a surprise video from her boyfriend giving her a sneak peek of what the table setting looked like over at the luxurious Beauty & Essex restaurant. He did an amazing job with dressing the table at this lavish restaurant. Side note, women can received a complimentary glass of champagne in the ladies room…now I know why there’s a meeting in the ladies room.
Continue to enjoy the rest of the pictures, I hope it gives you an in sight of Felita’s fabulous evening surrounded by 20 of her great friends.


HAPPY BIRTHDAY FELTA!!!!

Skin Care: Shiseido Ultimune Power Infusing Concentrate

I was very ecstatic when I received a complimentary bottle of Shiseido Ultimune Power Infusing Concentrate. Last week I met a rep from Shiseido who shared with me information about their new state of the art product. I walked away with a great tip about the product. First, it’s not a serum and it will enhance your naturally beautiful skin back to to its youthfulness. What a great treat for any woman who love luxe beauty products that bring radiance to their complexion. In one week I was told you will see your skin glowing and in four weeks you will see the skin firming and improving. The product can be used with your other skin regimen to boost their benefit. 

Just apply a pea sized drop 2 times a day after cleansing and before serum and watch the power of Ultimune enhance your skin. Starting tonight I’ll be treating my face back to it’s greatest beauty potential.

Beauty: I’m What Lupus Look Like

http://www.google-analytics.com/urchin.js_uacct = “UA-3446372-1”; urchinTracker();

Usually when I go to my Rheumatoid doctor and to physical therapy 2 times a week I always go with a full face of makeup and hair done. Unless I’m having a horrible painful day that I need to be admitted to the hospital. Today I decided that I wanted to wear purple because it’s the color for Lupus Awareness. I was surprise by all the compliments I received that I decided to write a beauty post about what makeup I was wearing. Now whenever I wear any shade of purple makeup this will be my way to share my reason why I rock purple…Lupus Awarness! I’m What Lupus Look’s Like.
