What’s In Your Makeup Bag

Today my first “What’s In Your Makeup Bag” at Whip Salon was with Amy Conciatori Colamaria. She came in with her basket full of makeup & makeup brushes! Amy had some goodies, I was impressed. After going through her makeup bag we threw out some old things and I taught Amy how to use the products that she had by applying a full makeup application on her. I gave her lots of tips & tricks for her to use when she’s home doing her own makeup. What a fun 1 hour spent  with Amy. She’s awesome luv her energy/personality. Lots of Prosecco & laughter within that hour that I had a blast with her. Through the laughter Amy managed to write down a lot of the customize tips that I gave her for her under eyes challenge. I can’t wait to hear the feedback when Amy return to see if she walked away with learning at least 3  things.

Thanks Amy for booking an appointment with me, you are a GREAT STUDENT!

Red Cherry Lashes For The Glamour Girl

I’m so excited about using Red Cherry Lashes on my clients at Whip Salon during their makeup services. I selected Valley Of The Dolls Collection because I’m such a fan of the book. It’s a flirty and girly collection that appeal to the women of the 60’s era through to millennials. I luv the fullness and length of the lashes and the band is so thin that they blend into the natural lash line! The collection offers a style for each day, it’s like playing dress up for woman. Red Cherry Lashes are made of 100% human hair, cruelty free, and latex free.

This weekend when you come in for your makeup application you will know that your look will be complete with Red Cherry Lashes. #WHIPLASH

My Favorite Blur Primers For Instant Smooth Skin

Connecticut Makeup Artist and Sephora Beauty Studio Coordinator Brandy Gomez-Duplessis makeup look at Donna Karan Market Week.jpg-originalEverybody love to look photo-shop in their pictures but what about days your not taking pictures. I know for me I have a challenge with skin texture. Because my entire face is covered with moles I like to look like I have a flawless complexion. So my must have to achieving that look is Blur Primer.

The great thing about blur primers is that it can be used on all ages, all skin tones, and on both men and women. When I’m on set especially working with men, brides, and photo shoots, I always prep with a blur primer. It gives such a smooth texture covering skin bumps, fine lines, and minimizes the appearances of large pores.

Blur primer is a lightweight non greasy product that feels silky to the skin leaving you with an instant smooth skin. Here are my favorite blur’s I like to use personally and on my clients.
