I’ve acquired a few new makeup products recently which have become daily staples, in addition to my old tried and true pieces. I occasionally mix it up with some red lipstick or bright eyeshadow, but here are ten of my favorite dailies.

Whew! I’ve been meaning to write this post for a while now but I’ve somehow been extra busy and exhausted lately.

This is just a one idea on how to quickly go from day or “work” makeup to evening makeup. I usually wear pretty simple makeup during the day and then just go home and wash my face after work, but on November 11th I went out after work… Continue reading

But this doesn’t mean you have to be product-free, or shy away… Continue reading

A couple of weeks ago, I went to the West Coast Fashion Focus show in Bellevue, WA. It’s a beauty industry trade show that I attend every year. For Paul Mitchell, my favorite hair cutter, Takashi Kitamura was presenting along with Toby Price who owns a PM Focus salon called The Experience, a little north of my salon, and some other wonderful platform artists.
