When Caribbean Posh magazine asked me what were my Top 5 beauty products for the summer that I can’t live without, it was hard to choose. But here are my picks.

4. MARC JACOBS BEAUTY FEATHER NOIR ULTRA SKINNY LASH DISCOVERING MASCARA
5. STILA STAY ALL DAY LIQUID LIPSTICKS
This is what happens when you leave a teen with your computer. They find old videos and and put together this…I actually think she did a good job. I have so much footage that I can probably make a movie from all of my travels and assignments doing makeup. I’m happy that she was able to find all my old files in hopefully can do something with my videos that’s just taking up space on my hard drive.
Weird thing is I have not aged!
Fresh Sugar Cream Lip Treatment is not just another lip gloss that will leave your lips popping. It’s a lip treatment that will leave your lips nourish and smooth while giving you 6hrs of moisture. Don’t expect a basic shine on your lips, Sugar Cream Lip Treatments will give you a tint of color with a touch of a soft iridescence glow.
The Sugar Cream Lip Treatment are creamy colors that is inspired by watercolor paint and the whipped texture is like a decadent dessert, creme fraiche. A texture that Fresh co-founder wanted with these Sugar Cream Lip Treatment.
The reason why your lips will be so soft is because of the ingredients. It has sugar, a natural humectant, antioxidant-rich vitamins E and C, and a blend of oil to give you smooth lips. Being housed in a metal paint tubes it makes it so easy to carry in your purse especially during the fall and winter time, when your lips will definitely need it.
Normally I’m on the other of the camera side helping with makeup but today I was the talent at this photo shoot. I am so elated about what’s coming up in September. I look forward to sharing with you all the new chapter in my life. This is one of many photo shoots that a fabulous business woman is orchestrating for me.
Looking at this pic I need to go on a quick diet before the next one. See ya bye & luv you mean it!
The best part about living by the lake is it’s so relaxing! Working from home on a beautiful day like today a girl could not ask for anything else. As I’ve gotten older I like my ME TIME, quiet time. I really get a lot of work done when I’m sitting out on the deck. I turn on some ambiance music from the Parisian scene, electric lounge of Hotel Costes since the deck has surround sound speakers out there. I work so much better when I have on music that makes me think.
I don’t want the summer to go away it’s been WONDERFUL this year.
My new makeup tool obsession is from Jane Iredale it’s such an innovative synthetic fiber makeup brush that any girl on the go would love. The Snappy Brush Wand has three interchangeable magnetic brushes to use with eyes & lips. I luv that the brush can fit easily in your handbag and a tiny clutch. It’s so easy, just snap on the brush head you wish to use and switch as needed.
If your a makeup junkie you will be just as obsessed as I am when I first laid eyes on this fab makeup brush.
Good Morning! Started my day off very early in New Milford, CT getting a client makeup ready for her bridal photos. Then rushed home got ready for a lunch meeting.

Happy Makeup Monday!

This look was suppose to be about a Nightime Smokey Eye at Sephora Beauty Class but I wanted Jen to really push the look by giving her a fun lip color. I selected Kat Von D Studded Kiss Lipstick in Plan 9, a opaque deep sea foam green lipstick. Because, it’s a opaque shade I selected Kat Von D Metal Crush Eye shadow in Iggy, a metallic mermaid green shade. I scraped a little of the shadow out on a cotton round in had Jen use her ring finger to dab the product on the middle part of the lip to get a high pigmented metallic lip. What a rebellious look…
