JENNY & ELLA, Look #2
While Jenny and Ella are both gorgeous with natural makeup (or no makeup for that matter!), I thought we would have some fun with one of my all time favorite red lipstick shades (Rouge Dior 999). To create Ella’s exaggerated bottom lash look, I used the under eye lash strips that I discovered on a recent beauty adventure… Read more »
Star Freckles
In the Beauty Is Boring studio with Jessika Villegas, testing out Make Up Forever’s Star Glitter. Jessika mentioned that she had always wanted freckles…
NARS UNDERCOVER… Kate Harrison
NARS just released “Undercover”, their Summer 2016 Collection and per usual, there are a bunch of gorgeous shades. However, since it’s still technically spring, I decided to do a romantic look with a touch of 90’s grunge as a way to transition the seasons. These shimmering pink and bronzed rose shades add warmth to the complexion plus… Read more »
BUTTERFLY… Devan Nykole Mayfield
I have a thing for orange lipstick. It’s shockingly beautiful on a wide range of skintones and much easier to wear than people tend to think. From pale sherbet and neon tangerine to sophisticated sunset and intense flame, there is most likely a shade of orange that is flattering on you. The look above features… Read more »

MARC JACOBS BEAUTY x BEAUTY IS BORING, LOOK #2
For the second look in this series, I used the incredible Marc Marc’er Precision Pen in Cocoa to create a graphic version of a cat eye and paired it with brushed up brows, pink cheeks and matching pink lips. It’s a bit of a girly look so I added an additional coat of the Velvet… Read more »
MARC JACOBS BEAUTY x BEAUTY IS BORING, LOOK #1
“Inspired by Marc’s mother – who used to shave fibers from black velvet ribbon and apply them to her lashes in between coats of mascara for a dramatic effect.” – MarcJacobsBeauty.com With a back story like that, who wouldn’t want to try the new Velvet Noir Major Volume Mascara! So I was thrilled when Marc Jacobs… Read more »
GLITTER PUNK… ALEX BOLDEA
Some days you want a no-makeup makeup look, just polished skin with a hint of blush and groomed brows. Other days, you start doing a no-makeup makeup look but wind up substituting a mix of glitter and crystals for concealer. I blame the influence of our newest team member, Christina (Instagram: The Pouf). PRODUCTS // Make… Read more »
