Remember a few weeks ago when I was showing off my {lack of}
makeup arsenal? Yeah…it was pretty pathetic right?
Well, that’s when I sent an SOS to my fabulous friend,
Michele Thomson who happens to be an amazing makeup artist and
Mary Kay Independent Sales Director!
I showed her my blogpost, and she agreed; I needed help.
I was so excited to have our consultation...I laid out all
of my makeup and took a {little} inventory.
Eye compacts that are at least 6 years old, mascara that is
about 2 years old, lip gloss from my wedding (which Michele did my makeup for
and made me look, and feel, stunning!) which was nearly 4 years ago…noticing a
trend?
Then a before picture, no makeup. This is pretty much what I
look like every day.
And we got to work. I showed her the amazing outfits that
Kristine Cook Designs is creating for me and we started talking about trends.
I want to be able to represent myself as an artist, stay
true to me, have a professional {yet quirky} look and represent my sponsors
with a fresh faced. While, sure, I could do that without makeup…I want to…pull
together a more pulled-together look and feel really confident at BlogHer’12.
Bold lips…dewy cheeks…smokey eyes…nude lips. We talked tips
and tricks…and over the next few months, you’ll be able to learn how to….
