A Big Day For Us Makeup Entrepreneurs

img_4427Another big day to add to my list of special accomplishments in my life. My partner-in-crime Johnny Lumoa and I are heading down to Danbury City Hall Permit Center to finish up the last of the 2 important paperwork we needed for Entitled Beauty.

So elated about this day because we both have been working hard on Entitled Beauty. Starting a business is such a special moment. Yes, I’ve done it before in New Orleans but today I’m still excited about our baby Entitled Beauty. Having Johnny, someone who believes in me and my love for makeup standing next to me as a business partner I know we will be successful.  I wish I knew how to do a back flip but just look at our smiles that should say it all.

I Love Doing Face Charts For My Clients

Had a great time with my client Rebekkah Lavalley today at Whip Salon. I luv how her face looked and right after I felt like playing with a face chart. I haven’t done a face charts in months it’s time that I start doing them again cuz I’m getting rusty. I used all of Jane Iredale makeup on her to create this look. I always like when my clients come in and say give me bold eyes. So I did just that, I gave her soap opera eyes my favorite kind.

Do you like when your makeup artist give you a face chart?

Smooth Luxurious Eye Shadow For The Holidays

This is my favorite time of year because during the holiday season I love to play with a lot of bold colors and shimmery products. It’s the perfect time to have fun with your makeup. One of my new favorite item this year is Jane Iredale Eye Shere Liquid Eye Shadow.

What I like about these liquid eye shadows is that it’s a fast drying long wearing shadow that will last all day. The texture is very smooth and easy to apply. Once dry the shadows will not crease or smear so you don’t have to worry about touching up the vibrant colors. They come in 4 beautiful shades: Brown Silk, Champagne Silk, Peach Silk & Teal Silk.

So don’t just let your jewelry be the only thing that bling, bring shimmer lids into your holiday look.

 

Do You Need Help With Your Brows

Your eye brow shape can change how the shape of your face looks. Knowing the shape of your face is the first step to creating your most beautiful look. A perfect brow is very important because it’s the frame of the face and one of the first things everyone looks at.

When at Whip Salon I luv using Jane Iredale Great Shape Eyebrow Kit. This fabulous kit includes everything you need to have gorgeous eyebrows. If you want to create the perfect frame, this kit is a must! It’s water resistant, the wax is a botanical formula that will nourish and protect your brows. Inside the rose gold mirrored compact you get a travel size dual ended applicator that will leave you looking fancy on the go.

If I want more definition added to the brows I’ll use the Jane Iredale Retractable Pencils. If precise is what your looking for the precision tip is a great way to fill the brows in with. They come in 3 shades leaving you with Instagram brows that is long lasting so you don’t have to worry about smudging. The pencil reminds me of Anastasia Of Beverly Hills just mineral base.

If you want very natural brows just with a tint of color then I reach for Jane Iredale PureBrow Brow Gel. It’s great for unruly brows because it holds the brows in place. Perfect for anyone who is experiencing grey eyebrows, the tint gives you enough color to cover them. If you want to be creative you can also use the brow gels as a mascara, just saying. Plus, the algae extract helps to conditions your brows making them healthy.

 So I saved the best for last, my must have brow products is Jane Iredale PURELASH Lash Extender & Conditioner. I luv this treatment because it does just that. It also has the algae extract so your receiving the conditioner that help to make them health. Plus, the panthenol has Vitamin B, which gives the brows an extra boost of condition. When you apply it first your using it as a primer so this will make your brows thicker that gives a fuller effect. Yes, you can use it day and at night. This step will help to make them stronger.

So what do you think? If your obsessed with brows like I am don’t sleep on Jane Iredale brow products. If your not sure which product is best for you just book a lesson with me so that I can assist you with shaping your brows.
