Sunday Afternoon Was A Chill Day For Me

Before heading to work I stopped at Wendy’s to get a large bowl of chili. It’s so nippy outside that I just wanted something comforting, cuz a salad wasn’t going to do today.

I only went in for a few hours to clean the display counter with Clorox bleach and to place a Jane Iredale makeup order. We are out of stock on many items from the week so I wanted to get a order together since I’m off on Monday & Tuesday.

Hubby did a great job with selecting these pink & red roses. How sweet of him. He also brought Amy flowers on Saturday at the launch party. He selected the right colors of roses that they actually matched her dress.

Before I left the house this morning I put a little bit of everything in the crock pot to make a spicy gumbo. Still needed a few more ingredients but overall it was delicious! Dinner is now served I’m ready for The Walking Dead tonight, what about you?

Whip Salon Launch Party Was A Glamxurious Evening

I was so excited about today, being completely booked with makeup applications at Whip Salon and having my friend Annya (makeup artist) with me was everything. Can you believe she cut all her beautiful curls?

My first client of the day was Mrs Rosanne, luv her! She came by on Friday to see me to talk about the makeup look she wanted for today. She gave me permission to give her a strong eye with lashes. My kind of lady…here are all of the Jane Iredale products I used on her. The lashes that I selected was from Red Cherry. I like the Cherry brand a lot, their natural lash band is on point. If you put them on correctly you can not see the lash band, doesn’t matter how close someone get to you.


I definitely have to give a shout out to Lancome for providing me with skincare products to use on my clients at Whip salon.


Katie was my third client this morning. She’s a high school student at Ridgefield High, today is there Homecoming so I had a few girls booked with me and I luv it! I like mixing it up because I get to do a variety of makeup looks.

It was pretty cool doing makeup on Andrea being that she’s one of the designers of the salon. Andrea was getting makeup for our launch party tonight along with her business partner Rebecca.

I wanted to give Rebecca a sultry eye with Red Cherry lashes and a sheer lip color. I contoured her just a little not to much. I think she look amazing with this type of look.


Luv this #BOMBSHELL hair stylist Monique Ferreira

Can you guess my glass….nope not the one with the pink lips on the rim!

LUV Leslie! She’s my southern belle

A dark eye look really good on Rebecca!

Luv hairstylist Erin, I agree she’s #FOXY…now it’s time for a costume change

Every morning you can find us sitting at our vanities, in the bathroom mirrors, or even in our cars putting coats of mascara trying to get the perfect lashes. Mascara is one of those makeup items that women go through many of to find that right one to give them volume, length and curl they want. Here are 5 mascaras that I like to use when I want to give my clients flirty sexy lashes.

Saturday Was A Fab Day Of Glam Makeup At Whip Salon

Today was a fun filled day at Whip Salon with makeup appointments. I luv when I get a mix of different makeup request from wedding makeup, party makeup, and Halloween makeup. I get to enjoy doing artistry when my schedule is booked with appointments.

 

 

As I start my day my partner-in-crime Johnny decided to do a snapchat of me kinda like a behind the scene look into A Glam Life Of A Makeup Artist. I’m always ready, check out the fab hair flip but the ending of my face expression is EVERYTHING, see for yourself.

Tre treated herself to a day of beauty for her birthday. So I gave her a sultry eye that would go with whatever she decides to wear.

Erin was attending a Halloween party in Wilton, CT, she’s a going as a adult unicorn so I used pink, teal and 24k dust on her.All of the makeup is from Jane Iredale Mineral cosmetics

 

 

Melissa was also going to the same Halloween party in Wilton, CT. If you haven’t already guessed but her costume is the one and only Rosie the Riveter

A great way to end my evening with these two ladies….

Fall Makeup Look For A College Girl

img_1272

What a treat for me, Lena stopped by to see me. She needed a new fall makeup look that she can wear while on campus. At Whip Salon, I offer a service call Whip Signature. It’s a natural makeup look for someone who doesn’t like to wear foundation but prefer BB Cream’s & Tinted Moisturizer. I decided to give Lena a makeup look that she can do while at school. I selected colors that would compliment her skin as well as colors that are in the fall season. I used all Jane Iredale Mineral makeup on her. What do you think about this look?
