I'm so excited! Just got some great new airbrush foundation, blush & highlighter from OCC out of NYC (Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics). Was just too disappointed with MAC's stuff, couldn't in good faith feel good about putting it on. It seemed to just "sit" in every little nook & cranny....scary stuff! So, just got the first batch. My fabulous sister was kind enough to stop into the trendy funky little Rouge Makeup Studio in NYC and pick up my first order. Thanks Charles for all your over the phone help! :) you were a doll...oh and I called David and he fixed me up with the second half of my order so I should be receiving it any day...can't wait! I think I may have to rustle up a airbrush volunteer...Cara? Kathy? My usual fashionista guineas are you up for the challenge? Lemme know! Smiles!!

Good Times for 25!

It's funny how fast you forget what it's like to have carefree fun. Seriously! I want to thank Shelley from Toronto for being a really great (& beautiful) client to work on. Celebrating her 25th birthday she decided to have fun fun fun in Niagara Falls with her husband and friends. A girl who knows what she wants, she decided to book a hotel room, dining reservations, party times at Dragonfly, a hairstylist and makeup extraordinaire...moi!
From the minute she walked into the room I knew this gorgeous gal had a head on her shoulders and a flare for style. Looking to knock the town on it's be-hind, she had a kick-"a" dress and killer heals picked out which sported her legs that seem to go for miles...unlike the somewhat miniature version which I was propped up on :). It's no wonder that what she had in mind to match this glam ensemble, was a hot and sexy smokey eye with MAC lashes to match her legs....going on for miles...no subtlety here!
This girl was a whole lot of fun, laughing, joking and having a good time. I think I smiled all the way home. I'm pretty sure I rem'ber my 25th...well maybe some of it... but I'm sure it wasn't as well planned and as much fun as she had. I'm just glad I got to be a part of this one. The girl was a riot with a good head on her shoulders, surrounded with an awesome husband and some pretty great friends, I'd have to say the she's already earned all her birthday wishes!
Happy Birthday Shelley...thanks for the good times! Looking forward to seeing some of those photos...I'm sure your makeup looked stunning!!!
