ANTM and ME!
URGENT: Vote for my Cavalli Inspired Makeup Tutorial
This is my submission for the NYX Cosmetics FACE Awards competition! I often attend Fashion Week and as I was browsing through all the beautiful images of the makeup backstage, I fell in love with the Roberto Cavalli look and thought- YES- this is the look I'll recreate for NYX!
Of course I had to change it a bit to make it my own, and I enjoyed every minute of it! I hope you enjoy it too and pick up a few ideas!
Thank you to my beautiful model, Eva Avery! I just love doing makeup on her pretty face.
Supermodel Lily Donaldson rocked this look on the Cavalli runway, and because she has such large, deep set eyes... it looked genius on her. I would love to create a look like this for Lady Gaga... you know, something fresh and feminine but colorful- in a water color sort of way. This look is romantic and bold all at the same time.
More videos and tutorials to come. I have definitely caught the beauty vlogger bug :-)

Brad Pitt, Kevin Bacon, George Clooney... you know, the usual.
This was an EPIC night. I had the honor of working with celebrity Makeup Artist, Sharon Gault and Celebrity Hair Stylist, Sean James, both artists represented by Opus Beauty and together our team made the beautiful even more beautiful... Our clients: Brad Pitt, George Clooney, Kevin Bacon, Jamie Lee Curtis, Martin Sheen and some of the cast from Glee... to name a few!
I'm all set up and ready to work!
Products I used: Makeup Forever Anti-Shine, All Matte as a base. On the men, Select Cover Up by MAC, and Makeup Forever Very Matte Powders. On the women who weren't on stage, I gave them a more dewy finish and used Makeup Forever HD foundation with Laura Mercier Radiance Tinted Moisturizer as a base.
What a perfect shot of the evening! Sean James working on Brad Pitt, I was so excited to assist him with Mr. Pitt! Martin Sheen finishing up and Matthew Morrison getting powdered.
Me and Key Hair Stylist, Sean James working on one of the producers of the event. She loved it!!
Our Team, with our client list above!
Backstage with Pitt and Clooney... tough day in the office! The Makeup and Hair team were backstage ready to touch up the cast before they headed to the red carpet!
And of course, I had to hit the red carpet as well! This was, in fact, my first red carpet as a brunette!
I did hair for Matthew Morrison from Glee and the beautiful Sally, did his makeup. #teamwork
And for the after party, we had the best view of the night! Mr. George Clooney, looking as debonair as ever.
And to finish the night off, Sally and I took a sassy lil picture with the sweetie pie from Glee, Darren!

My first Co-Starring Role on Hawaii 5-0!
I loved being pampered in the Makeup + Hair Trailer. My friend, Laura Augon did my makeup and she did a beautiful job. Being that I played a 'high-maintenance hiker' it was appropriate for me to have my 'face' on. Laura also made sure that I (as a fellow makeup artist) loved my makeup. It was the perfect artist to work with me on my episode. She used a Revlon light reflective moisturizer to prep my skin, Armani foundation, DuWop Cream Blush (applied with a foundation brush) and some other stuff- ya know, a little soft eyeliner, strong yet natural lashes, and a pink lip gloss. She of course was there at every turn, ensuring I looked put together as I wondered through the jungle.
Take a peek at all the wonderful moments we shared behind the scenes.
