Product Launch
MY PINK PRODUCT: Bon Appetit HiLight Shadow
I have not been personally affected with Breast Cancer, but cancer has definitely touched my life. My mom when I was in high school, had uterine cancer. My best friend in college had cancer. My father recently had skin cancer, and I myself had cervical cancer. Luckily my family and I are all fine, happy and healthy. My best friend though, lost her life after only 3 months and I will never forget her.
Cheryl was a fashion designer who was just on the verge of making it big. She had just opened her own designer showroom, had stores clammering for her designs and was on the verge of something big. I met Cheryl on a photo shoot where her clothes were being used, and an instant friendship was born. On the day of shooting her publicity photo where I did her makeup, she told me that a suspicious mole on her leg, had turned on out to be cancer. And the procedure of doing the biopsy had somehow caused the cancer to get into her blood. They gave her 3 years to live. She was gone in 3 months.
So don’t just live.
Be aware.
Get tested, get screened.
Get healthy, stay healthy.
Because life is just way too short.
So for her and for everyone fighting, living and touched by cancer, I’m honored to be able to offer my very own Pink Product during this very important month of Breast Cancer Awareness.
Bon Appetit is a soft pink highlight shadow with soft flecks of gold, and it’s a limited edition only product. Available only for this month of October, 20% of all sales of Bon Appetit will be donated to the Breast Cancer Research Fund.

Product Spotlight: The Spoolie Brush
The Spoolie Brush
Yep, it’s the faithful spoolie brush. And I use mine allll the time. Why? It gives the finishing touch to your brows. Much like a makeup sponge or brush can soften the edges of your eye shadow, blush and foundation, the spoolie brush softens your brows so that it looks like your eyebrow makeup is really your brows and not makeup. I use it on every client, every time for a softer looking brow that looks great.
How to Use:
The spoolie brush should be used right after you apply each step of eyebrow pencil and eyebrow shadow. Apply as usual, and then brush through the brows to soften and blend the color to the shade you want. It evens out the color so that it’s uniform across the whole brow. So if you apply your shadow, brush through. Applied more? Brush through again.
Tips:
What’s cool about this spoolie brush is that you can bend the head of the brush to have a angle to it. So for those who like to work with the handle away from the eye, you can bend the top and brush through to see what you’re doing. Best part, is that the brush head is completely bendable at any which way, and can easily be bent back to straight without ruining the brush at all.
Multi-Task:
The spoolie brush is also great for brushing through lashes after applying mascara, and the bristles are super soft, so it feels great.

It’s vacation time!
Can you believe that I have not had a vacation in about 10 years? I’ll blame in on my being a workaholic but it’s finally gotten to the point where I just gosh darn need one. So I’m off to Los Angeles today for a week and then off to Las Vegas for the CosmoProf Beauty Trade show that I”ve been trying to get to but haven’t been able to for the past 4 years. And on top of that (yeah, I know it’s a ‘working’ vacation but still!) I’ll add a few more days to Las Vegas for a little R&R that’s so badly needed. I just cannot wait!
But don’t worry, I’ll be back the end of July hopefully all refreshed, and sunburn free, and ready to go again for say,maybe the next ten years? Just kidding!
So keep those eyebrows on hold for me… I’ll be back soon!

New products on the way!
The past month has been a blur of business, new products, and moving! Yep, the brow line has officially moved from Los Angeles to New York, including a move of our shipping and warehouse distribution from So. Calif to Chicago for closer access. Though it took a week to move all the inventory, it took a few weeks to organize to get it ready to go. But our behind the scenes crew made it super easy and painless.
Now that we’re officially situated in Chicago, back orders can now be shipped out, so if you were waiting on items that were either out of stock or needed a exchange, they are now on the way to you! Plus a little something extra as a apology and a thank you for your patience for waiting while we made this move.
Also, amongst all this, it was putting the final touches on new products that are soon to be coming your way! Here’s a sneek peek!
Let’s say you can expect:
1. A brand new hi-light called Glowstick that is fast becoming my universal favorite.
2. A new highlighter brush
3. A new spoolie brush to tame and brush brows.
4. A new lash brow groomer with brush and comb.
Coming soon:
5. A new brow color
6. A new brow product that I’m so excited about, but can’t talk about it yet! But you’ll be the first to know!
