Big Pink Lips

I've been inspired lately by all of the jewel tones being shown for fall.  I wanted to try a new hot pink color.  I've also been wearing black eyeliner on the inner rim of my lower lids.  With such a strong lip, a nude eye works.

Hair Extentions, Would You?

After watching last season's Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, I decided that I wanted long hair.  Inspired by Kyle Richards, I went online to research my options.  Here are pictures of the result. 
What do you think?  Would you actually wear these out?  On a recent trip to Vegas, I did wear them out.  It was really fun to try something different, but I was a little self conscious.

June Bride


Stephanie wanted to highlight her features, while keeping her makeup natural.  We enhanced her glowing complexion and gave her a smoky eye with liquid liner and a pink lip.

Fake Tan and Orange Lips

I've been wanting to try the orange lip trend for a while, but have been a little scared.  I opted for a more nude-orange shade on the lips..I'll leave the bright orange for the toes!   Clinique Self-Sun for the face, MAC Sheen Supreme in Gotcha!

Self Tanning Anyone?

For me, the sun equals new wrinkles, pregnancy mask, hyperpigmentation, and sunburn, which is why I can be found hiding from the sun behind large shades and a straw hat.

Alas, I love the look of being tan.  I've tried so many self-tanners, everything from the super expensive to the drug store versions.  The trouble is that I have acne-prone skin and for some reason, the active ingredients in many self tanners cause me to break out.

Luckily, I think I've hit pay dirt.  My new favorite is Clinique Self-Sun for the face.  No breakouts so far, and it gives me a nice, natural looking tan.  The best part is that it is tinted so you can see where it's going, ensuring an even application, and you get an instant glow!
