The Make Up Show NYC 2009

Before you say anything..I know these pictures and recap are late.....Life has been crazy and extremely busy.
The Make up Show was held back in May in Manhattan.From the moment I walked I was speechless.The artistry, the networking and the products.If you can go in 2010, get there, and start saving some cash now.
So this event is held for 2 days.My schedule was jammed packed with the AIDS walk that Sunday in Central Park, and in between all the festivities I came down with a NASTY cold.
I met Erin of Scandalous Beauty.
I saw Dany Sanz, creator of Make up Forever, she was celebrating her 25th anniversary. I also saw many youtube Makeup Gurus.Every major makeup brand in the industry was represented there, prices were bananas.40% off at Make up forever, Eve Pearl,really, I could go on forever.They were also seminars, and all types of instructionals and demos that were at no additional cost.

A few pictures are below. For more info on the show Click Here.
Hope to see you all next year!

Are you ready for the transition?

So we've heard about this transition for as long as I can remember. And yes, it is finally here. You know, digital T.V. We know that picture quality is better now than ever before.In fact, cameras an now see 6x greater than we can imagine. For me, this means nothing.I don't plan on being on TV any time soon.
Except there is one thing, that has me pumped about this whole digital movement.High Definition Foundation , every news anchor and even Oprah is using it! Why you ask? If you can get a flawless face, a soft focus finish with makeup, the question is, why not?! There are of course countless options. Make up Forever Hi Definition foundation is available in 26 shades. It is oil free (oily skin like mine appreciates), because it is made for HD TV it is virtually undetectable. No more harsh lines were it is obvious you are wearing foundation.Perfect for brides and anyone doing print/film work.

For those curious to know, right now, I am wearing 173 and 177 mixed, I am between shades at the moment.
Make up Forever is sold exclusively at Sephora, and at the Make up forever boutique, NYC.

Click Worthy!

Yes this has nothing to do with fashion, or glosses but I'm on this site daily. Check it out, perhaps it will inspire you. When it does please invite me to your MTV cribs episode! No but seriously, it also gives great tips and ideas, especially for those that live in areas where what we pay for rent/mortgages could by us a huge home in other places.

In my Element.

Please don't even ask why I am up at this hour. I have no clue. But at any rate, I want to share with you all a drugstore find. I have been using it for a month now, so it's safe to say it has my seal of approval,lol.
Meet St.Ives Elements Cleanser, I am so loving this! Sure I have my arsenal of cleansers, but talk about beauty on a budget!I keep it in my shower and it feels so good and it some what calms me.It is safe for all skin types. I am combination, for the record. The only caveat is that you need to remove eye make up before hand, it does not remove that to my standards. One more thing is that it is a cleanser, not a cleansing oil (love those also-deets later).
You can find it at your local drugstore or Tar-jay.
