100 Faces By May 31st!

You read right! I am back, grinding harder than ever! The weather is finally breaking and I'm getting my name out there..NOW! What better way than to do a 100 face blitz, adding all of this to my portfolio...YEAH!

Myself and a colleague have partnered up at a local hotel every Monday to do the do! I've got my cards ready for handout and now I'm just going to spread the word and run my mouth! Imagine what's gonna come out of this..mo money, mo money, mo! I can't wait to share my results as time progresses!

Stop The Press!

I can't believe cosmetics is on sale and of all places, at Saks Fifth Avenue! That's right! 15% off cosmetics and frangrance! I guess that's tax pretty much in the Midwest since it's over 10 percent...but woooohooo! Sephora is also having a 15% sale this week. I tell you..a sign of the times! Well I have to give thanks to this fact because as you all know cosmetics NEVER go on sale. I'm on my way out the door..gotta go, gotta go!

Feeling Brave...Taking A Risk

Barack Obama WINS!!!!!

I'm sooooooooooo overwhelmed with happiness and excitement! Words can not express how great this feeling is! I'm proud to be a witness of such a day in history I and many others thought we'd NEVER see! CONGRATS to the USA!!!!

Celebrity Makeup: YES or A HOT MESS??

Running out of ideas as to how to do your makeup? No worries! Get a few ideas from your favorite celebrity. With a lil mascara, eyeliner, and a lipstick that compliments your look, you'll be celebrity ready. The following looks are definitely achievable at home. Take your pick:Ciara is wearing purple shadow rimmed over the top and bottom eyelids, with mascara and a black eyeliner.Beyonce is sporting the infamous brown smokey eye and she plays it down with a neutral lip.

Kim Kardashian has been toning it down lately. With an ultimate mascara to lengthen your lashes to the fullest, a pale pink blush, and a matte lipstick (Angel by MAC is her fave), you'll be well on your way.

Jada has a frosty eyelid going with chocolate brown eyeshadow outlined in her crease followed by a soft pink blush and berry lipgloss.

Now go get pretty for your nite on the town! xx
