Prom Princess

I had the pleasure of working with this lovely young lady attending her senior prom. She was very pleasant and flexible, but knew exactly what she wanted. The entire experience was great and she loved her look, although I wish we had better pictures. 

Until next time,

Jae

Bridal Trial

I had the pleasure of meeting and painting this lovely bride-to-be over the weekend. She was super laid back and easy to work with. She let me do my thing. We aren't settled on the lip, I think I'm going to do a black cherry or something dark. 

I need better lighting in the worst way. 

Until next time,

Haulin Time

This past Friday I stopped by Ulta to check out the NYX sale and couldn't resist a few things. I picked 2 of the soft matte lip cream (Addis Ababa and Prague), 2 single eyeshadows (Heat and Dare) and a sample size of the UDPP. I can't wait to share more of my finds. 

Until next time, 

Jae 

New Do!

I did it, yes I finally cut it all off and I absolutely love it! My self confidence hasn't wavered one but, in fact I feel even more confident. I plan to keep until this summer and then decide my next move. 

I Am Not My Hair

Good hair means curls and waves

Bad hair means you look like a slave 

India Arie was so correct, but I didn't take heed until this past year. I've changed my hair so much in the past 8 months and I haven't cared 1 bit! My hair is what I make of it! Take a look at a few of my changes...

Game Face!!

This Saturday my godson turned 16...I know! His mom surprised him with tickets to the Wizards vs. Pistons game here in DC and that required a face of course!
