I was surfing websites & of course went to Elle Magazine’s site. I came across this post and I’ll copy and paste it below.

RED-EYELINER

“RED EYELINER
Red and green are opposite each other on the color wheel, making them complementary colors. So if you want to accentuate greenish-blue, green, or hazel eyes, technically red eyeliner or shadow is your best bet. While in real-life, most would substitute a subtler pink for red, this wasn’t the case on the runway at Altuzarra—where models’ lower lash lines were boldly smudged with scarlet liner. To adapt this trend for everyday, do as Rihanna did, and opt for a cleaner, more powdery-soft line.”

REMIND YOU OF ANYTHING?? (Of course we upped the amp for a photo shoot going for a very editorial monochromatic look) LOOK OUT FOR THE FINAL PICTURES!!!!

Kim Kardashian looked flawless at the Emmy’s Sunday night. Her skin looks perfect. I want to know what she uses – amazing products I’m sure along with a crazy skin care regimen and diet! Flawless skin, black eyeliner, super long lashes and a nude lip is my favorite look!

I came across these & liked the makeup on everyone :) Enjoy!

Hi Faithful Readers :) I welcome the avid readers & the new readers with open arms!

I wanted to tell you guys about my first day working as Gregg Hubbard’s assistant. I met up with Gregg for an informal meeting in Bryant Park early last week. During the meeting he looked at my portfolio, which he said is gorgeous. I am so glad he liked it! I’ll be adding more pictures to it soon, you will see!! Gregg was so nice to me. I met him through Keith Venable who is the Creative Executive of YSL Beauty. I met Keith through a very close family friend from Maine. Look how networking really does work! Anyway… Gregg was so pleasant & simply asked me “What can I do to help you?” I explained my vision to him and he suggestion I work for him!

OF COURSE!

Gregg told me to meet him on Sunday at a salon near Columbus Circle. I arrived on Sunday to this amazing salon. One of Gregg’s good friends owns the salon. It is 3 blocks from columbus circle on the second floor. The salon is adorned with amazing artwork & super cool hair dryers that are attached to moving ceiling rods. I noticed a great picture of Kelis and told Gregg I loved it. Come to find out Kelis and Estelle are two of the owner’s clients! I can’t wait to get my hair done by him too :)

Gregg was doing a trial run for a bride. I have included a few pictures below. His makeup collection is amazing & he even invited me to his place to go through his collection & see what he could give to me. If you guys know me you know I was more than thrilled. I also got informed that I am invited to the wedding and will be doing makeup on some of the bridesmaids. I am so excited!!!!

A huge thank you to Gregg. He is genuinely kind and says he loves to help. I honestly haven’t met anyone else so open to helping & backs up their word. I’m glad to know these people exist.

I love Cassie’s skin! Her makeup looks flawless. I want to find out who does it. She doesn’t even need much, but wears it well when she does.

Amber Rose was on the red carpet of the Espy’s (I know they happened awhile ago & I’m late). I thought her makeup looked gorgeous. Her skin is flawless normally, but it looks extra glowy here. Gorgeous!

How gorgeous does Dania Ramirez look? She was photographed at Kelis’s album release party. I love the bright pink lip with a really clean bronze face. Gorgeous.

seventeencoverHere are some photos from Rihanna’s most recent shoot with Seventeen Magazine.

















It’s a different look from her usual dark clothing & makeup. I like it! I want to try some bright eyeshadow – it’s been awhile since I’ve really worn eyeshadow like that. I’m now inspired :) Look for a post in the next couple weeks with bright eyeshadow!

Lauren London & Cassie were at the BET awards and looked gorgeous. I love the natural bronze look on both ladies. Perfect for day or night!
