An app every Makeup Artist or just makeup lover should have. It’s called Modi-face and you can do makeup and then it gives you the products that you used and you can buy them right from the app. 

Check out the full face makeup look I just created.

Ladies I know during the winter we all lose our summer glow so in order to keep our bronzed tan why not check out these self tanners. I know self tanners have a bad reputation but don’t worry you wont turn orange. I personally use Shiseido.

VITAMINS EVERY WOMAN SHOULD BE TAKING DAILY FOR BEAUTY!


Women regardless should be taking vitamins however, there are several that are primarily for beauty.

Biotin - known as vitamin H - for hair and nails. It is found in many cosmetics and health products for the hair and skin

Evening Primrose Oil - a natural source of the unsaturated fatty acid (GOOD!), Gamma-Linolenic Acid (GLA), that promotes women’s health and helps provide nutritional support for PMS.* <— curb those mood swings and flow ladies!

Vitamin E - Great for skin and prevents dry damaged skin. Good for your hair and nails as well. check out this link for more information.

CoQ-10 - also known as Coenzyme Q10 or Ubinquinol. Similar to Vitamin E. These vitamins run about $55 for Nature Bounty brand at any CVS. But the results for your skin is worth it.

Ladies and gentlemen believe me I take these vitamin daily and I have proof that the results are worth the regime and money. As a makeup artist I refer all my clients with acne issues and skin irritation and are prone to dry patches to take these vitamins on a daily basis. 

Try to stay clear from Oils, it is the actual chemical in it’s purest form and you may see clogged pores instead of clear skin. The capsules are the exact dosage one should take so I highly recommend the pill form. I do have the Vitamin E Oil for those rare occasions that I have a dry patch (especially during these winter months)

I hope this helps some of you and if you have any questions please feel free to contact me.

Ok so I could sit here and tell you all the many uses for Witch Hazel OR I could just redirect you this amazing website for DIY stuff.

I know when most people hear the term Witch Hazel they think of halloween,witches brew, something our grandmothers used. Well, our grandmothers DID use it and for good reason too. This is not just an astringent it can be used as a toner too. I use it daily after I exfoliate and before I moisturize. It is great to get that residual bit of makeup off. Plus, it is used by Makeup Artists around the world on set, off set, and during fashion week. Forget the high end brands like Embryolisse, Clinique, and all the rest.

There are many brands out there (some that are partially alcohol based) so look for the ones that say 100% Witch Hazel. 

I personally use THAYERS ROSE WITCH HAZEL.
