Rave Reviews About Our Beauty Lessons!
I had the wonderful pleasure of working with Jill this past weekend for an at home beauty lesson. Jill is such a great person and an absolute joy to be around. Her glowing smile and personality immediately put you at ease.
Jill contacted me in December after reading one of my other blog posts around beauty lessons where I go through your own makeup bag and show you how to use your own stuff or re-purpose it for better results. We had so much fun trying out new techniques and discussing skincare routines.
Please read her glowing review below and let me know if I can ever be of service to you and/or your gal pals! I love to do mini beauty lesson parties, too! Can you say, “mimosas”?! Enjoy!
(Thanks Jill! I had a blast!)

Best Buys from Allure
I just received an e-newsletter from Allure magazine and while most of the info I skim over I found some of the products as “Best Beauty Buys” rather good. We have used a lot of these in the past a few I’m going to grab to try out this week.
I love that they listed the Sublimage eye cream from Chanel as their number 1 splurge since I just blogged about that last week! It’s amazing! Just thought I’d share!
Also, I’m attaching the Allure Beauty tips of the month in case other makeup junkies (like us) out there want to know! Enjoy!
-
If you’ve applied too much mineral foundation, dab a tiny bit of moisturizer on your fingers, press them together, then gently pat—don’t rub—the pads of your fingers on those areas. This will remove the excess without smearing your makeup.
-
When testing a nail color, using a small amount is useless—always brush on two coats so you can see how the finished product will look.
-
If you have fine hair and you want to create waves, apply mousse and let it dry naturally. If your hair is pin-straight, add mousse, then wrap it into a bun while it dries.
